Just no good news here at all. Deaths are up week-over-week, which hasn't been happening much lately. Most cases since May 1, with a big week-over-week increase. And highest positive test rate since May 16, so this surge in cases is NOT just a reflection of more testing.
To put the increase in deaths in context, Delaware added 69 deaths today: "The revision came from identifying 67 deaths dating back to April." So if you take out those 67 deaths, the week-over-week deaths have not changed.https://delawarestatenews.net/coronavirus/huge-jump-in-covid-deaths-after-state-review-of-data/ …
That’s good news, but the positive test rate is still jumping
Thanks! That shows why it's always important to delve deeper into the data.
Love this! Context has been the entire thing missing the whole time. "Information without context is falsely empowering"
Interesting, thanks for clarifying! What do you make about the increased test positive rate?
Thanks. Still a lack of decrease. I am afraid we have reached the local minimum.
In the hotspot states, deaths are indeed on the rise. Arizona example belowpic.twitter.com/GAo5NyR82E
Hasn’t that been happening a lot in less noticeable ways every day for months?
I agree, though I look at these numbers daily and I can say that a death report that's 5x higher than the previous peak is extremely rare. So it's important to add some context to the numbers. I do expect deaths to increase over the next few weeks though. Just not today.
