I know the US press has been busy telling you that your country handled this uniquely terribly compared to everyone else, and this idea has spread to the rest of the planet just like all your other politics. Meanwhile in the real world, the country everyone was pointing to as the big European success story that proved everyone else had fucked it up not so long ago - the Czech Republic - is actually the one with a worse Covid death rate than pretty much everywhere else on the planet, and the other countries in the region aren't doing too great either. (Also, all along the comparisions used misleading tricks like comparing the number of detected Covid cases when the US had much more widespread testing for it than Europe.)
