1/ It ain’t over folks — There were some countries in Europe who had big problems with #Covid early on. Spain, Italy, and Germany were all able to act quickly and get the COVID19 pandemic under control, at least for now. Compare their graphs to that of the USA in the lower right. 
2/ We were slower to enact measures and our measures were less effective. The pandemic still rages and is actually still growing in quite a few states, even as some of these states ease restrictions intended to save lives.
3/ Thanks to the @NYTimes for these charts and to @LateShowSeth for making this point in a YouTube video to powerful effect.
