Charts without any population adjustment obviously overstate the US. But per capita measurement is tougher than you'd think. Early growth is a function of N, not rates (IE: 1 infects 2, whether you live in 10k or 10million). Later, it's constrained by pop and slowed by geography — PolitiTweet.org

One small thought I'll toss out there is that I think it's tough to compare coronavirus cases across geographies of varying size and population. — PolitiTweet.org

IE: coronavirus cases don't just spread evenly throughout a country, they spread throughout communities, leading to metro-area type clusters. So what does it mean to compare Lombardy to the US, even on a per capita basis, when huge parts of the US remain largely unaffected? — PolitiTweet.org
