As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to rage uncontrollably in the U.S., 
we must understand that it doesn't have to be this way. Many countries 
around the world, and above all countries building socialism, have been 
able to effectively combat the pandemic, using the tools of a planned 
economy and robust national healthcare system to prioritize the health 
of their populations.

The U.S. has the highest rate of infections and highest death count in 
the world because the health and survival of working and oppressed 
people is secondary to profits for the ruling class. More than 160,000 
have died, millions have lost their jobs and many renters face eviction. 
But the wealth of U.S. billionaires has grown at least $637 billion 
during the pandemic!

The cruelty of capitalism is on full display.

Join Workers World Party this Thursday as we learn how China, Cuba, 
Venezuela and Vietnam have organized to push back COVID-19.
