Interesting chart.
TY for publishing it.
According to the United Nations World Population Prospects report, approximately 7,452 people die every day in the United States. In other words, a person dies in the US approximately every 12 seconds.
You can see a live clock keeping track of how many people have died today at https://www.indexmundi.com/clocks/indicator/deaths/united-states.
You can compare the number of deaths in the US to the number of deaths in other countries at https://www.indexmundi.com/clocks/indicator/deaths.
This started nearly 2 months ago in a nursing home in WA, today the total deaths is up to 75.
Italy has 23K cases, 21K of which are mild. Of the other 1800 they are losing an average of 150 people a day, with an average age at death of 81.
Thanks to the steps taken by President Trump and the task team, we’re not going to become like Italy.
Wow, that's a big number at the Life Care Center and a number that is rarely pointed out by the media.
We are starting to see more about the demographics of the dead. Finally. I’ve heard some before and it all indicated elders. IOW, mostly elders affected with about average 3% death rate (LESS THAN 1% minus WA) thus not much different from other everyday viruses.
This is insane, the reaction to this virus. In the first month it showed up, I could see being careful, not knowing much about what it would be.

It’s very odd that only one nursing home in the country had a bunch of deaths, I’ve been to many nursing homes and there should be multiple deaths in every one.
One more tidbit.
This year’s flu season started picking up steam around Thanksgiving.
The CDC doesn’t test everyone who has flu symptoms to be certain they really have flu, rather than some other viral infection. Still, the CDC estimates are reckoned to be pretty accurate, and they are updated regularly.
There have been 222,000 confirmed flu cases in the US this season.
And there have been 22,000 flu deaths this flu season.
There were 144 children who died from the flu this season.
It's also worth noting that Italy's first case occurred after the first case in the US.
So the people who are saying that ours numbers aren't like the numbers in Italy, because we are two weeks behind Italy, are not correct.
Yes, we are not like Italy.
Something is fishy about so many at one place, and I don’t think it’s LifeCare.
LifeCare in Denver are in the top tier of places you would want your loved ones to stay, if they had to go in a nursing home or rehab center, and I’m sure that’s true across the country.
I go to dozens and dozens of places each year, maybe over a hundred. LifeCare places are easily in the top 5 or 10% in terms of quality.
Facts are the enemy of the doomer.
Italy can’t possibly happen here. We are the most prepared country in the world.
I remember early on hearing some report about a Korean nurse who worked at the nursing home, who came back from Korea, who tested positive.
I've heard nothing about it since.
This Life Care Center in Kirkland, was cited last year for inadequate flu management. From what I hear the place was/is a pig sty.
Does The CDC test anyone?
If not, what does The CDC do?
What was the last disease they prevented?
If not, what does The CDC do?
Pay their employees to do nothing and make a huge amount of money.
I’ve been to many nursing homes and there should be multiple deaths in every one.There are but no one cares about them unless they died from/with the Corona virus.
BTW. Did they die FROM the Corona Virus or did they die WITH the Corona Virus.
IOW, did the virus kill them or did they just happen to have the virus when they died?
Looks like they are not going to make their goal of 100 before St Patty’s day.
