        Quite. The UK has the 2nd highest population in Europe, apart from Germany, and one of the highest population densities.

        Make sure to post when the UK hits 1st in deaths per million population.

          We shall remember the terrible handling of this crisis by the incumbent government, by not voting Labour or LibDem!

                Taz was the one who said we needed the results per million population, since the OP mentioned Europe, I thought I'd share the figures for tests per million. Looks like Jeremy Corbyn should be held accountable for the lack of testing, if I understand the koolaid that is drunk by those who follow Cummings and his cohorts.

                  With you under it hopefully, you pointless prat.

                  Spain and Italy near the top of the testing chart but with highest deaths per capita.

                  Someone's lungs are filling with fluid and they're clearly shuffling off this mortal coil.
                  "Ooooh, hope they've been tested," mutters gormless Greg, clinging on to his EU flag.

                    You're not very bright, are you?

                      FTFY.

                      A strong opposition means a strong government!
