We're about 5x the size of Italy. If we were Italy, and you did those divisions, Italy should have close to 400k deaths. They're not close to achieving that." – Dr. Birx pic.twitter.com/McUtDyUkb1
The part about the leading expert at Imperial College admitting his model is wrong is true. He predicted 500,000 deaths in the UK and now is revising that to 20,000 "more than 1/2 of whom would have died by the end of the year in any case bc they were so old and sick."

You have to look at the cases per million and not the number of cases. We have 250 cases in the US per 1 million people. Italy has over 1300 cases per million.
