The U.S. has a covid-19 death rate 7 times higher than the world average.
And NYC has a death rate 200 times higher than the world's 10 largest cities.
Could it be that the U.S. pays hospitals $39,000 for every patient diagnosed with Covid19?
Nah, forget it.
Couldn't be that.

Why is NYC's death rate 250 times higher than Tokyo's?
Something fishy here.
