And with another Trump-style authoritarian leader in Brazil, a guy in unscientific denial, Bolsonaro will probably give the U.S. a run for the money in overall deaths as the virus is getting completely out of control there. Bolsonaro has been 'hoping' the virus would miraculously disappear just as Trump did.
Meanwhile, states like Alabama are starting to have big flair ups because reactionary Trump supporters refuse to execute best practices for social distancing and mask wearing. They actually ridicule those wearing masks. Trump supporters are so ignorant that they don't understand that those wearing masks are largely protecting the ignorant Trump supporters not wearing masks.
Some states have done initial random testing studies that indicate the COVID-19 virus is six to ten times as lethal as the regular seasonal flu. (But that won't stop johnforbes from simply regurgitating more of his ignorant partisan wishful thinking about it. No amount of science will convince him of anything.)
