I'm chronically ill & disabled in Canada and we had a deeply mediocre response. Part of why I finally caught COVID a month ago despite always taking precautions.
Unsure which nations did it better.

Probably best to look at deaths per capita for countries wealthy enough to reliably be able count these deaths.
By this metric Peru did worst with 666/100k.
US at 341/100k
Canada at 135/100k
Countries widely considered by the west to have had successful control efforts are Australia 77/100k, Cringe Korea 67/100k, Japan 58/100k and New Zealand 53/100k.
Singapore had 29/100k
Venezuela had 21/100k
China at the bottom had 7/100k, down among a sea of the poorest nations in the world for whom covid tracking was a luxury.
Edit: Looking at these numbers I'm now really curious what these numbers would look like scaled against GDP. Like based on how able a country was to afford a serious response, how many people did they kill?
dumb joke
Juche necromancy confirmed?
In the US around a million people died, with numbers of Canada it would've saved 600k people, with numbers of China it would've saved 980k people.

Yes you wouldsorry I misread no, you wouldn't, you could use GDP per capita. It's just a comparative measure
