That's in the epidemic phase with the most susceptible having now passed. What about the now more endemic phase? And by the way, Canada has had 2 (two) <19 covid deaths, and every year we have at least 10 that we know of of flu.

Anyway, this is getting a bit pointless. If I were to start talking gobbledygook about investments, I imagine you would (rightly) laugh at my ignorance. That is what you sound like to epidemiologists right now

@GidMK I had a similar back-&-forth w/ yet another economist who fancied himself an epidemiological modeller! It ended w/ him accusing me of attacking his masculinity & whiteness!
Yours seem to have ended more civilly! Then again women get gaslighted more aggressively! - Show replies

The height of the blue line (symptom onset dates that eventually resulted in deaths) is roughly the same (certainly not exponentially higher) at Oct 30 vs Sept 30, which covers the 14-day reporting period. Honestly, what am I missing?

Quickly eyeballing, looks like it's gone up by ~20% in that time. The reporting lag would also include the 29/30th, and symptom reporting is not a perfect measure. Would be more useful to look at day of death than day of reported symptoms
