For a frame of reference:
Current "official" US coronavirus death toll is 11,906. That number would equal the largest crowd ever in Disch-Falk Field (a surprising 10,000 for a 1977 exhibition game) PLUS the largest crowd ever at Red and Charline McCombs softball field (1,570) at the same time, and still have over 300 people that don't fit into the stadiums. Gonna have to shift the frame of reference later this week to the Erwin Center.
For some perspective of how big the US totals are growing: 7,152 would rank as the 70th-highest crowd at Disch-Falk Field. If we add the same number tomorrow as we added today, the total would rank as the 2nd-highest crowd ever at Disch-Falk, and we’re talking about having a to add a lot of temporary bleacher seating to get to that total.

I will freely admit I’m not a South Korea expert, but 38 million people in the city of Seoul?!? That doesn’t come close to the Google result for their population, which is 9,904,312. Where does the “38 million” come from? Even considering every surrounding municipal area, it would come to 25 million.
If a syrum is a cross between a serum and a syrup, then you've got America pegged!
"I need you to take this medicine."
"No, thank you."
"Well, then I need you to drink this syrup directly from the bottle..."
"Bring it on!!"
After a number of lies from the administration, and a number of tweets blaming the governors/others who need help, Trump has been a complete failure in this situation. But if anyone still thinks he hasn’t lied, or that the petty insults are just in good fun, there was a clear moment where Trump outright declared that he is a failure in leadership:
