Thank you for reminding me why I should not read, and definitely not post in, this thread.
Positive correlation is the key. That means as the cases increases per day, the death rate does not increase at the same rate. Why isnt that a good thing? Its just science and numbers.
look at the numbers, you dont even need to graph it to see it. https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#cases_casesper100klast7days
Im not making an opinion, just saying what the data shows.
Oh and i did the math for year over year of total deaths and found 8.5% increase in mortality for the US. Is the data your using counting total deaths year over year or specific groups of deaths?
Oh and good point will. I started looking and gathering the data yesterday from CDC just to see for myslef what the big picture was. And i have to say it made me feel better, it means we are getting a hold on this thing.
