+173,861 NEW CASES
17,386 = 10%
1738 = 1%
+1,076 DEAD is under 1%... woo hoo... this pandemic is over... thanks kozak for the enlightening numbers and the good news.
You’d need to take a moving average of daily new deaths and compare it to a moving average of daily new cases from two weeks ago for that comparison to make any sense.
It takes an average of about two weeks from the time you get diagnosed to the time of death for those who die from COVID-19. Taking today’s new cases and today’s new deaths and putting those figures together doesn’t mean anything.
