You can still compare waves per country, instead of comparing directly between countries
Russia: 2.28x cases peak, 2.61x death peak
Germany: 3.22x cases peak, 1.25x death peak
UK: 5.07x cases peak, 0.50x death peak
France: 12.42x cases peak, 0.68x death peak
Italy: 6.21x cases peak, 0.90x death peak
Spain: 2.24x cases peak, 0.33x death peak
Netherlands: 8.94x cases peak, 0.54x death peak
Belgium: 12.25x cases peak, 0.72 death peak
Sweden: 4.67x cases peak, 0.33x death peak
Austria: 12.10x cases peak, 4.32x death peak
Switzerland: 7.41x cases peak, 1.69x death peak
Denmark: 3.73x cases peak, 0.35x death peak
Norway 2.25x cases peak, 0.33x death peak
Ireland: 1.22x cases peak, 0.09x death peak
You expect cases to be up, much better testing and you expect deaths to be way down, experience, better treatment, the at risk know to stay safe
Sweden matches Spain (so far) for change between peaks.
Austria has made the biggest mess of the second wave, while Ireland handled it best.
