@ClarkHat @MaxCRoser Not sure I understand. The y-axis is logarithmic, so the death rate has fallen tremendously overall.
@PalimpsestMan @ClarkHat @MaxCRoser Size of circles is total deaths, but y-axis is log(death rate per capita), not log(absolute deaths).

@PalimpsestMan@ClarkHat@MaxCRoser So death rate has fallen sharply since...WWII. But that was a huge positive outlier. -
@PalimpsestMan@ClarkHat@MaxCRoser Post-WWII trend doesn't seem distinguishable from noise, given overall behavior. -
@St_Rev@ClarkHat@MaxCRoser There is kind of a sine wave movement that portends badly for the remainder of the 21st century. -
@PalimpsestMan@ClarkHat@MaxCRoser Yeah. Also there's the Outlier That Didn't Happen: what was the % chance of nuclear war 1950-1990? - 1 more reply
