Please FReep Mail me regarding the ping list
for these reports. Thanks.

COVID-19 Update

As of 04/02/2020 22:22 PDT (taken at 23:59)

Good morning everyone.

I'm coming to you today from Planet COVID-19,
my home office on the Left Coast of the U. S. A.

Thank you for dropping in to check out the Update.

New Feature: States, Territories, and Counties

Here is a spreadsheet with the States50, Territories5+,

There Was Impressive Growth Again Yesteray

Let's go to the numbers...

04/02    245,559   28,838    1.741
You can see where we've come from on this, and it should be fairly
clear what lies ahead.

The number of new cases continues to rise. I'm choosing to look
at it as an investment in massive recoveries to come. Nearly all
of the new cases will wind up with a recovery. We're already seeing
record numbers of them pile up. In days to come a veritable army
of recoveries will be documented each day.

Not to be disrespectful of those who won't make it through, I, and I
am sure each of you, are desturbed by their loss, and the negative
impact on their families.

Our Slice of the COVID-19 Pie Continues to Grow

Once again, lets take a moment to address the U. S. portion of the
global declared cases.

I've mentioned that the U. S. has roughly 4.252% of the global
populace. In total we have declared 24.160% of all globally declared
cases. When it comes to the active cases, we have 30.482% of them.

Here is what the movement in those stats looks like.

       DECLARED      DAYS     ACTIVE      DAYS
DATE      CASES      CHGE      CASES      CHGE
- 
03/20    7.125%    1.297%    10.934%    1.552%
03/21    8.704%    1.579%    13.000%    2.066%
03/22   10.377%    1.673%    15.343%    2.343%
03/23   12.170%    1.793%    17.411%    2.068%
03/24   13.053%    0.883%    18.369%    0.958%
03/25   14.657%    1.604%    20.190%    1.821%
03/26   16.140%    1.483%    21.454%    1.264%
03/27   17.530%    1.390%    22.920%    1.466%
03/28   18.742%    1.212%    24.126%    1.206%
03/29   19.762%    1.020%    25.289%    1.163%
03/30   20.936%    1.174%    26.777%    1.488%
03/31   22.045%    1.109%    27.885%    1.108%
04/01   23.110%    1.065%    29.120%    1.235%
04/02   24.160%    1.050%    30.482%    1.362%
With our numbers of declared cases moving up rapidly, there's still
a lot of pressure pushing up our share of the global cases.

Resolved Cases in the United States

We had 2,508 more cases resolved yesterday, bringing the total
resolved cases in the U. S. to 16,498. It wasn't a particularly
impressive day as far as resolutions go. The two prior days were
saw more resolutions come in.

Currently we have 229,061 active cases in the United States.
Remember, 16,498 cases have been resolved.

The following addresses the global numbers
without Mainland China

Global numbers increased at record levels today

Just before noon PDT, the global declared cases passed the
million case level, and the day before at about 08:00, the
number of people who have recovered passed the 200,000 mark.

Back to still more numbers...

04/02     933,937   78,548    1,046
Roughly two weeks from now we will have upwards of 60 to 80
thousand people being declared recovered each day. During
this time we'll also see an increasing number of deaths each
day. As this takes place, we have to remember that people die
in large numbers all the time, associated with a number of
different causes. This is one cause we generally don't have
to deal with, but there are yearly deaths from disease that
we do deal with, and we've come to accept some of them as a
normal part of life.

Nations With Lots of Cases

At the end of the day on 04/02/2020, there are:

 1 nation(s) with 200,000 plus (take a bow...)
 2 nation(s) with 100,000 to 199,999
 4 nation(s) with  50,000 to  99,999
 1 natiom(s) with  20,000 to  49,999
 6 nation(s) with  10,000 to  19,999
 6 nation(s) with   5,000 to   9,999
31 nation(s) with   1,000 to   4,999

51 nations with a 1,000 count or above...

A Look at Declared, Resolved, and Active Cases

Here is a new display of numbers related to the topic.

It includes some Mainland China figures, but of the active
cases today, Mainland China only makes up 00.34% of the numbers.
It's inclusion here will have almost no impact on these figures.

End of day figures follow:

I've been mentioning that resolved percentage, and as you can see,
it's still fighting for every inch it can get there. It's been in
the upper 25% range for five days, or nineteen reports now. Mid
day yesterday, it actually popped up to 26.02% for one report.
Then it was back down in the upper 25% range again. Then again
this morning it made it over 26% again, showing up on the first
report of the day at 26.079%. Then it was back down to 25.950%
and finally wound up at the end of the day at 26.066%.

I'd like to make a bigger deal of it, because it's an important
part of things turning around, the fact that the percent of declared
cases is growing. First that happens, and in time the numbers of
active cases start dwindling. Unfortunately, I am not certain
this percentage will continue to grow. I hope so.

You can see how fast it was moving down until it hit the upper 25%
range, by checking out that fifth column there.

Population Saturation

Here are the figures revealing how many people in each
population base represent one case.

I'm also showing what percent of each population base is infected
right now.

Not liking that...

New Feature: States, Territories, and Counties

Here is a spreadsheet with the States50, Territories5+,
and Counties200 listed alphabetically and by
declining case numbers. ACCESS

Good morning...

All data below sourced from Johns Hopkins University: LINK

...and WorldoMeters: Alternate Data Site

I have been downloading three to five reports per day since 01/27.
I work up the numbers and present them here. Yesterday I entered
counts for 207 global entities three times. The day before I did
it four times, and I have done it five times a number of times.

To verify the data is solid, I developed a Check Sum Matrix that
veryifies one number that has been derived using four different
methods. If one or more methods don't result in the same number,
I research until I find out why and balance it out.

There are a number of issues that could cause the numbers to be out
of balance, but each check sum error reveals what quadrant the error
is in, its size, and what type of error it probably is.

The spreadsheet you can access below has 241 rows of data that extend
out to column SX. There is still more information in the 8 rows above
the daily national and international figures.

At the current time I make over 225 manual entries per each report
during the day. In addition I do around 10 cuts and pastes, and several
sorts. If a new nation or entity is added, I have to insert them as
I enter the data for the nations. If a nation or entity is discontinued,
I create a place holder to keep it's position in the list, so I won't lose
the data that was entered for that entity while is was still active.

While this sounds like a lot of work and would seem like it would be time
consuming, I can process a report in about 15-20 minutes.

When JHU had some data issues about three weeks ago, I spent about six
hours on serveal days, and a couple of hours on several others to keep
my data and continuity preserved. I have had to come up with alternative
methods to obtain data several times. I have debeloped a rough concept
of what I will do if one of my data sources goes South.

I would like to maintain this data through until the end. I think it will
be a reasoned case study in the progression of the disease.

Having the data on my computer, in the format I have designed, allows me
to manipulate the information after the event if I want to. It's a
hobby for me, and I enjoy it.

There's only so much I can document, so the best I could do is cover
the documented cases for those 207 nations or entities. You can
review the case growth for any of these nations or entities, since 01/27.

I have broken out the data in Global, Outside Mainland China, and
U. S. A. focused breakdowns.

It has been mentioned that the important number to document is the
number of deaths. I don't think that is a bad idea, it's just that
I don't have time to do more, and it isn't as important to me to get
accurate deaths for each individual nation, as it is to get the group
deaths off the reports. I currently document those levels for the
U. S., Outside China, and if you want to figure out the China portion
you can subtract the Outside China figures from the global ones.

I haven't broken down China's figures, because I don't consider China's
figures to be credible. I have captured them for a frame of refernce,
but there are problems. Communist nations lie. It's what they do.
The data coming out of China has to be seen through that filter.

That being said, I want folks to consider if we will truly have the
precise answers to every question. Will we truly know of every case
in Western nations? Will we truly know the exact number of deaths?
Will we be sure each death attributed to COVID-19 was truly a death
from COVID-19? The answer to each of these questions is no.

Some folks will die at home from COVID-19. They won't get counted.
Some folks will contract the disease, remain at home, and recover.
They won't be counted. Others will be on death's doorstep before
contracting this disease, and then be counted as a COVID-19 death
even though they were months from death anyway.

So in this manner, I think we will wind up with data that isn't quite
as accurate as we might think. I don't think our government is
trying to mislead us, but these things can only be so precise.
China is deserving of a lot of criticism on a number of levels, but
only some of the criticism is warranted. Other parts are a litte off
base. We ourselves won't have exact numbers for what takes place
here. At least we have made an effort, and will study to find more
accuracy even after the event. That will not be going on in Communist
China, at least not for their public or for international exchange.

As for what is taking place along these lines, think back to H1N1, SARS
or any other disease. The numbers for those diseases surffered from
this same dynamic. One day a figure will be placed on the number of
deaths here in the U. S. for COVID-19. It will be an approximation.

That's okay.

Spoiler alert!

The humans win in the end.

My spreadsheet is linked for those who have Excel.

You're welcome to it.

Correction:

Percent of Resolved Cases Growing...

I'd like to make a bigger deal of it, because it's an important
part of things turning around, the fact that the percent of declared
cases that have been resolved, is growing. First that happens,
and in time the numbers of active cases start dwindling. Unfortunately,
I am not certain this percentage will continue to grow at this
time
. I hope so.

There are always going to be idiot-sticks out there.

We also have a lot of corporations on down to small
businesses that are pitching in to be productive and
a part of the answer to some of the problems we’re facing.

That’s pretty cool.

Michigan Governor Getchen Whitmer (D) held a Town Hall where three major local news anchors asked questions posed by residents but when it came to the question of what the numbers were on patients who have recovered and continue to recover, she flat out refused to give any kind of straight answer. Now, what could the reason or excuse for doing that be?

“when it came to the question of what the numbers were on patients who have recovered and continue to recover, she flat out refused to give any kind of straight answer. Now, what could the reason or excuse for doing that be?”

I’m going out on a limb here, but could it be that too many are recovering and it doesn’t fit the narrative? More deaths = more fodder to take out Orange Man.

Thank you!

I think Dr. Birx indicated they are only getting back 50% of the required testing data.

Also in my great state of New Jersey, I am unable to find the number of recovered cases. I have only seen scattered stories of NJ individual recovered cases from unofficial sources of local news and cable network. I have been checking CDC and Coronavirus dashboard.

I am heading off to work. Will check back tonight. I have been watching your daily posts.

There are always going to be idiot-sticks out there.

This idiot stick is a fortune 500 company that was putting foreign buyers ahead of American states trying to get masks for their hospital staff.

Those three local news anchors were visibly taken aback by her ‘crafted’ responses to many of their straight-forward questions.

However, at least one of those local news channels is not reporting on how bad it made her look. Instead they claim that that “Gov. Whitmer Answers Questions During Town Hall With Detroit TV Staions”.

If you have it ( I know the US publishes it) the number of tests for CoVid is also interesting

We have about twenty percent testing positive Not all countries are testing as much as the US is

On Wednesday April 1 I began tracking the number of ‘serious, critical’ cases being reported in the USA.

These are the people who may likely die in the next few days. If the ‘serious, critical’ number goes up, we will likely see more deaths. On the other hand if the various drugs being tested are effective in treating the virus, the ‘serious, critical’ number should go down.

Here are the numbers:
Apr 1 Wed 5005
Apr 2 Thu 5421

I will update the numbers each day on your posting so you do not have to.

“Recovered” is not always known, at least not immediately.
