#7 Oxygen and other equipment is starting to arrive in India from the outside world. Death numbers should start dropping. And our beloved president’s people, for whom he is a figurehead, are universally fools.

I checked the
Worldometers -DOT-info/coronavirus/weekly-trends/#weekly_table site and ran the Covid-19 numbers.

It seems Brazil has Higher infections and deaths per million than India based on total population numbers.

Brazil' Death rate from Covid-19 infections is over 400%+% higher per million than India's deaths from infection.

Other South American countries are reporting similar numbers.

Yet the Democrats still have Open Borders????

#10 And since "no culture is better than any other" (except maybe white conservatives in the US, who are the worst) it can't possibly have anything to do with that, in India or South America.

#11 How about sending some of the millions of vaccine doses America bought and is not using?

#12 This isn't as simple as it appears. Most of the business class that visits the US are right leaning, anti-Left, hardworking hindus. They are a threat to the islamics, and migrants from shitholes who would rather have those opportunities that go to the Indian. I'll bet there are people lobbying in the DNC for according more greencards and visas to Pakis and other islamics coming in through the UK.

The media blitz by the BBC and affiliated sources on what is a country's usual struggle with the calamity of the day has done its job. All the video clips about mass cremations and people dragging bodies on roads, could be just another Sunday in this 1.39 billion large nation with huge income disparities.

But it would serve India well too, if our skilled and educated can't just scoot off for greener pastures as soon as they can.
