Deaths per capita/Mortes per capita na Europa e alguns estados dos EUA

I received a mail from a friend in Milan. It's worth to take a look at this data and then ask where is Brasil going to be placed on this list once the game is over:

As of today's figures 4/16, here are COVID-19 deaths per capita for several European countries:

Belgium       0.0419%
Spain           0.0413%
Italy              0.0366%
UK                0.0202%
Netherlands 0.0194%
Switzerland  0.0149%
Sweden       0.0132%
Denmark     0.0055%
Germany     0.0048%
Austria         0.0046%
Norway        0.0028%
Finland        0.0014%

So, assuming all other countries had strong shelter in place rules, note that there are at least 6 countries in Europe that have a higher COVID-19 mortality per capita than Sweden, even though they have shelter in place.

As for the states, I usually collate this info every Monday.  So as of Monday 4/13, the following 5 states in the US had a higher COVID-19 mortality per capita than Sweden.  I believe they all have strong shelter in place rules:

New York     0.0481%
New Jersey  0.0264%
Louisiana     0.0183%
Michigan      0.0139%
Connecticut 0.0137%

(I round off population by millions to one decimal place, i.e., California's is 39.5 million; Sweden's is 10.1 million)

BTW, As of 4/13, California's COVID-19 deaths per capita was 0.0016%, ranking 30 out of the 50 states+DC.
