It's amazing that there's typhus cases in the US at all, but it's hardly an epidemic outside of fevered media reports. Meanwhile in Venezuela: https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2019/feb/21/venezuela-crisis-threatens-disease-epidemic-across-continent-experts https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2019/feb/21/v... The country is being ravaged by diseases such as malaria, to the extent that there's concern it will impact the entire continent. Or for another example, rich idiots refusing vaccinations has led to cases of measles in the US. 400 this year, and while nobody’s has died, that's pretty terrible: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/04/01/health/measles-total-cases-us-cdc/index.html https://edition.cnn.com/2019/04/01/health/measles-total-case... Then we have Venezuela. 6.5k cases, at least 76 deaths, now starting to spread outside of their borders: https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2019/02/15/695100627/venezuelas-health-crisis-spills-over-to-neighboring-countries https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2019/02/15/6951006... You're trying to compare things which aren't even on the same scale. "The health system has completely collapsed, hundreds are dead, thousands are sick!" "Yeah, well, a few dozen people got sick due to people being idiots" This isn't comparing apples to oranges, this is comparing an apple to an entire orange grove.
