I just did a count of W Europe. 176k deaths. That is not by a factor of 9.
If we look at deaths in just the 5 countries you mentioned they have 147k deaths. So no they are not beating us by a factor of 9. Yes I know you are using a specific day. But since this thing has run over the course of 7 plus months now, look at the full data.
The US is actually at 331 million. So if you add in another euro country to get to about the same number lets say Belgium. Add in another 10k deaths. If you prefer a slightly smaller country use Sweden and add in 6k. Now you are in the 150k+ area.
176k deaths in Western Europe. US 195k deaths.
So no Europe didn't nail the response to the virus.
You can look up deaths and population all in one place on this site.
