We have them in the Netherlands as well, but not nearly as many. You get about 1 or 2 per year that happen as a message to everyone, only used for life threatening situations. And then around 15 per year for which only an app notification and social media are sent.
- bombcar 4y agoThe Netherlands apparently has 17.5 million people, presumably some of which are children. The USA has 332 million people, at least 3 of which are children, and gets about 200 Amber alerts/year (usually not nationwide, only locally, which can be an entire state). The numbers line up if you count the "app notice" only ones.
