Denmark is beating Covid [View all]

"Denmark is beating Covid! Their death tolls per 1 million people are just 22 percent of the U.S's. The primary difference is trust. More than 90 percent of Danes trust their national health authorities and public decision makers. As a result, 86 percent of eligible Danes have been vaccinated. In the U.S. trust in expertise, government, the media, and institutions has collapsed. Vaccinations are lagging below 50 percent in many states and we may add another 100,000 deaths this fall and winter to our grim total of 675,000. The pandemic still casts a deep shadow over our lives. "
