Exactly

what about taiwan?

Last I heard, they'd contained the outbreak with brilliant success.

It appears that is still the case.

right..they have a small population in comparison to the US, genius

Taiwan has a population of 23.59 million -- a couple million more than the state of Florida which is our 3rd largest.

The U.S. has a population of 326.69 million.

Do the math and this makes U.S. population approximately 14x the size of Taiwan.

Now:

If you multiply Taiwan's confirmed cases by 14x, you get 7,633.
Multiply the deaths by 14x and you get 98.

So

How does all that compare with the U.S.?

But why ?
The answer isn't just because they controlled it from the beginning.
Why is Australia also so low in deaths with similar population to Taiwan? and around 100 deaths last I looked.

Well

tl;dr: The article credits Taiwan for "quick decisions and early measures by its government, and... the high standard of the island nation’s public health system and its people."

Seems to me like the answer is pretty much: they controlled it from the beginning.

Correct but whu does nobofy tell the rest of the world why?

It's because we currently live in an Idiocracy here in the U.S. of A.

asleep already with those spelling mistakes.
