Its not their fault the EU parliament is located there with all the incoming & outgoing flights that will entail. Population density greater than Blighty.  Lockdown began before Blighty and more draconian

We'll have to go some to top Belgium in terms of deaths per million.  Probably need to exceed 60k deaths.  Estimate is for another 5k deaths in care homes.

The truth is no one knows how accurate the figures are for any country, because many deaths can be put down to a different cause.  The increase in deaths over the period from 1st March compared to last year is arguably the most accurate measure.  I'd expect Iran to be way out in front.

98% of Belgians live in urban areas.  That is quite astonishing.  Germany is 77%

On the flip side single occupancy is 35% in Belgium comapred to 29% in the UK.  Prolly due to house prices and the much greater number of Asians in the UK

Well it looks as though every single person is going to have to contract it one way or another so the pissing contests are irrelevant.
Comparisons between countries is an exercise in futility anyway
UK's figures are low considering they have only done a partial lockdown

Iran is 50k plus.
They have horrendous problems there that they are trying to suppress.
I was listening to a programme on radio 4 about Iran a few weeks ago from inside the country.
A lot of the religious stuff is exacerbating the situation

juce..you love the Uk so much that even after almost continuous Tory rule you decide to relocate to a poor country who exist on a tawdry sex trade.
Therefore as a professional sex tourist you really should not comment about the UK.

He said: "We record everything. Deaths everywhere, not just in hospitals."

And that includes deaths suspected to be from COVID but not actually tested. More of those deaths are in care homes.
Dr De Keersmaecker said: "If we think the people are dying of COVID, we count it.
"Of course, that (accounts for) the higher level of dead people in our country.
"In most countries they don't do that. They only take deaths from the hospitals. We even have people dying at home."
The differences in recording COVID deaths make it hard to compare statistics between nations and could mean Belgium's figure is more realistic or even lower than data now suggests.
It could also mean the number of deaths from COVID in other nations is higher than thought.
Health ministry spokesman Emmanuel Andre recognises Belgium's way of recording deaths pushes the country to the top of the rankings but is unapologetic.
He argues it is the best way to get a true picture of what is really going on.
He said: "So the point of including suspected cases is to get the best picture of the level of this outbreak in our community, including outside the hospitals.
