By the numbers in the Americas, perhaps, the best place to be during the covid-19 pandemic is in Latin America.
Using the numbers from the United Nations official population and Worldometer and John Hopkins University on the Coronavirus COVID-19 cases, in Latin America, the countries of the Americas that were once part of the Spanish or Portuguese languages prevail: Mexico, most of Central and South America, and in the Caribbean, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, has fewer confirmed covid-19cases and deaths.
