chosen.content: The COVID-19 pandemic has been particularly severe in the United States because the country has been slow to respond to the emerging virus. There have been no effective treatments available, so the health system has been swamped with patient cases. Additionally, austerity measures implemented after the financial crisis left many people with already weakened immune systems vulnerable to the virus. Poor communities, who cannot afford to isolate themselves from the disease, have been disproportionately affected. Poor housing conditions, overcrowded living spaces and lack of access to healthcare have exacerbated the spread of the virus. The economic downturn has also been an issue, causing businesses to close and result in higher unemployment levels. All of these factors have contributed to the severity of the pandemic in the United States.

There is also an increasing amount of anti-vaccine sentiment. These factors have helped create a perfect storm, where the virus has spread rapidly.
