Was anyone else expecting worse? I was promised an apocalypse. World-ending pandemonium. In the US, with our 320+ million and otherwise excellent sanitation and healthcare, we lost half a million people.
Ok, that's nothing to sneeze at (please don't sneeze on me), but far lower than what I was expecting.
India. India with it's 1.3 billion. That's four times the population in one third the space. They had 160K deaths. India, a country that's almost famous for poor hygiene and sanitation, where people are packed in like sardines. I expected much worse, yet their outcome seemed far better.
This is the most confusing apocalypse I've ever been through.
