the U.K. has already 55 deaths but Germany only 19
Because death rates don't increase incrementally and the virus has yet to peak in either country. There are going to be good days (not many deaths) and bad days (spates of deaths).
But if you're wondering is there something we could have done to prevent the deaths that Germany did, probably not.
Genuine question that concerns me: having followed both German and British developments, with similar numbers of verified cases, the U.K. has already 55 deaths but Germany only 19? I am aware that the number of positive tests is not really a meaningful number given how few people are being tested in the first place.
