CNBC: This chart shows which European countries are expected to have the highest coronavirus death tolls
Britain will be hit harder by the coronavirus crisis than any other European country, researchers have predicted, with the U.K. expected to see more than 60,000 deaths from COVID-19.
New research from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), published Monday with a correction issued on Tuesday, forecast a total of 151,000 deaths across Europe during the “first wave” of the pandemic, which scientists predict will end on August 4.
It compares to a total of 81,766 deaths expected to occur in the U.S. by the same date, according to IHME analysts.
The European analysis was based on data from various sources, including national and local governments, the WHO, and individual countries’ social-distancing policies.
For many countries, death tolls would be influenced by the demand for hospital resources being “well in excess of what it available,” researchers said.

What we learned from COVID 19
1.) Ventilators kill you.
2.) Chloroquine, a zinc ionophore, works.
3.) Democrats are playing politics. They think it is Christmas. They are plussing up all liberal groups.
4.) The communists in Italy betrayed all Italians. There should be war crimes trials for all Italian communists.
