It’s crazy to see the death tolls in Romania knowing that it is one of the least dense countries in EU
I got my Pfizer vaccine from a batch bought in Romania. They couldnt use them before expiry date.
The is incredibly cherry picked data, it covers deaths reported in the last 14 days.
Reporting lags Deaths lags hospitalisations which lags cases.
Eastern Europe had a covid wave over the last few months so their deaths are higher.
North and Western Europe is just having their covid wave in the last few weeks and so the deaths haven’t shown up yet. For example Germany has just started posting high death counts.
Give it a month or so and you’ll see high death counts across north and Western Europe.
Stilling for other Irish users but can’t see any. As someone who has lived in both Denmark and Ireland this absolutely blows my mind; Denmark has free public healthcare and excellent consultation services while Ireland has absolutely no healthcare and consultation services are almost impossible acquire event privately and even if you manage to convince a GP to make a referral.
We pay for A&E and we pay for GP’s; there is no minimum level of free public healthcare. How can we possibly spend more than Denmark when we legitimately don’t have a meaningful public healthcare system at all? Out of all of the countries I have lived in Ireland is the only outlier – it has the worst healthcare in the EU.
Rich countries vs poor countries. Who’s going to do better. I will give you a hint. Money wins.
