We have done the most tests which results in seeing the most numbers (that and some sh1tty management). We have done over 10 millions tests. RUS is next with 6.4 mil (if you believe it), then Germany with 3.1 million tests. China (of course) does not list their numbers.


We are on par with Europe. Taking UK, FR, DE, SP, IT, rough pop 322mil and comparing to USA 330mil.



In total tests, the US has done 10.8million tests. The five Big EUR nations below have done 12.2 mil tests.



USA:
Death/mil 265

Cases/mil 4446

Testing/mil 32817



EUR

Death/mil 425

Cases/mil 3578

Testing/mil 38765



So we are roughly comparable to equivalent nations in Europe. I can make arguments that skew numbers worse or better depending on other factors



We are really in no overall WORSE shape than the most comparable countries in the world, and arguably better.

It's hypersonic, and the Space Force is a need, regardless of how poorly it have been rolled out.
