Let’s drill down on some numbers today…
=============
For the past 2 or 3 weeks, the number of new cases reported each day seems to have peaked … maybe plateaued, maybe turned the corner and is starting to decline.
===============
Over the same time period, the daily death rate has trended up from its previous trough … or, as the MSM media likes to say “in recent weeks, the daily death rate has catastrophically doubled from 500 per day to over 1,000 per day”.
===============
Putting those numbers into context, the daily case counts have more than doubled since the prior peak in mid-April … while daily deaths have hovered around 50% of their mid-April level.
In numbers: New cases were running at about 30,000 per day in mid-April … and there were over 2,000 new deaths each day … a ratio of deaths to cases of about 6.7%.
During the recent spike, cases have been running at about 60,000 per day … and new deaths each day have been averaging about 1,000 … a ratio of deaths to cases of about 1.7%.
That’s a 75% drop in the deaths to cases rate.
==============
Keep a watchful eye on the daily death rate …
