Covid 8/3/20

Headlines stating CA over 500K confirmed cases FL approaching etc…

The trend would seem inevitable as we are testing more than any places in the world – is ignorance bliss? Attributing death to covid – requires testing….is the same method being applied all over the world. Russia testing per capita over ours but yet confirmation per capita almost 3X lower at 0.58%. Fatality rate is also half of US at 1.6%.

Unfortunately I had to change the limit from 500 deaths to 1000+ deaths so wouldn’t put so many countries on chart.

In terms of volume tested CA,NY, FL, TX lead the pack – hence should see the most confirmed – and that is exactly the result.

US death drop to 413 – but it’s a Sunday reporting. India on top at 771

TX deaths drop to 13 – proving once again looking at daily numbers are not reasonable due to the volatility of reporting.

Same counties of issue…

Miami-Dade deaths continue to be strong at 40 deaths a day on 7 day Moving average. Harris county still the best at 17 even though confirming over 1000 a day.
