Comparing the rates in an over reporting country seemingly way past it's peak with a massively under reporting country still accelerating doesn't seem reasonable.
In any case, an absolute number is far more indicative of people suffering that a percentage of population.
And finally what's the point of the comparison anyway? It was as bad as it was in one, and is as bad as it is in the other. I don't think it'll make the Indian population feel any better.
This, from the BBC this morning.
