Omg your making this really big
Just wanted to say that compating countries is comparing apples and oranges. Different population density, different healthcare systems, different rules and regulations, large differenes in willingness to get vaccinated (Germany and France have very low willingness for instance).
The Amsterdam metropole area for someone from the USA would be the whole country. It is not a concept we use in the Netherlands. Amsterdam is Amsterdam city. Adjacant cities like Haarlem and Utrecht are consisered different cities not part of the Amsterdam metropole area. Randstad is a ring of cities like I explained.
And yes every country could have acted selfishly in Europe. Germany btw is also not densely populated and they have a completely different health care system.

One thing we can all agree on is that we have all experienced this awful pandemic and our different countries have done some things well and some other things not that well at all. It is a tragedy that has been felt all over the world. Everyone is frustrated and wants things to get better. In the meantime we can talk about our shared love of all things Duran Duran.
