I can appreciate your logic. But think about total number of cases in the US. If you divide that in half (according to your logic) there would still be 800,000 cases in the rest of the U.S. That's still roughly the same amount of cases in the next 3 countries COMBINED.
Now think about the percentage of world population that the U.S. accounts for. Our infection rate is inexcusable. And getting worse.
There is a significant portion of the country that has politicized a viral infection -- and that line of thinking is just making this a worse situation.

Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but don't you need to adjust for population in order to make a meaningful comparison?
