This is heavily dependent on incident report rates. Incidents are underreported in countries where insurance doesn’t require police reports and/or litigation risk is much lower.

Deaths are pretty well recorded, and there you see that the US is much higher in vehicle deaths per capita. Deaths per billion vehicle-km is also useful, as you can argue that per capita the US drives a lot more, so you will see more incidents due to the traffic exposure being higher.

Summarizing: The US has well over twice as many traffic deaths per capita at 110+ vs 45 in the EU. The worst EU country is Romania with 78. The US is closer when you compare kms driven: about 7 deaths per billion km, still way higher than northern Europe (2-4) and about on par with Belgium (that’s unfortunately not something to be proud of). Quite a bit safer than the lower scoring countries though on that metric, like 14.4 for the Czech Republic.

Just eat the ivermectin and be done with it.

Talking about pulling teeth. Dude you’re super annoying and seem to deliberately misunderstand comments. You’re right, it’s not ‘good SOP’ to blindly trust based on what a government is saying, but no one is stating that.

There is a point where the collective scientific community at large has consensus on a topic, with the ability to ignore a single government, entity, or political movement where it becomes believable. With the COVID vaccines we have passed that point by a very large margin.

But you keep banging on about how scientific (almost complete) consensus the same as some random idiot from the US government saying ‘trust me bro’. That’s a false equivalence and I think you know it.
