CV19: UK v Italy - new graph format

Sadly, the UK seems to be overtaking Italy in CV19 deaths. Albeit with a 2 week time lag. I changed to a bar chart, hopefully easier to see what is going on. UK in blue.

CV-19: times to double

No graphs today, just these stats:
  • global deaths, time to double = 6 days (same as 10 days ago) 
  • global cases, time to double = 8 days (up from 6, 10 days ago) 
These are scary numbers but the increasing time to double for cases is a positive sign.

Italy and Spain both seem to have peaked in new cases and deaths. Let's hope so.

A hand-painted picture from Italy

A poster made by Sonia's nephews, Emilia 7 and Alberto 12, to hang on
the balcony of their apartment. It means "All shall be well" :)

They are delighted that school is now closed for the remainder of
this (school) year. Hopefully will re-open in September. Their parents
are not so delighted!

CV-19: Comparing Italy to UK again

This graph shows where the UK is at compared to Italy, normalised/offset by a 2 week gap when numbers were similar (March 7th Italy v March 21st UK). The gap seems to be closing, UK is at almost 90% of Italy's numbers. As of today, Italy has 14,681 CV-19 deaths. As my friend John K says, we are two weeks behind Italy...

CV-19 global picture - 6 days later...

From March 24th:
>> The number of CV-19 cases crossed 400,000 on March 24th ... with a six day time to double, global cases could reach 800,000 and deaths 35,000 on March 30th. <<

Now on March 30th, deaths have indeed doubled and cases are up by 84% [Edit: cases reached 800,000 a day later, March 31st].

6 days ago:




And 6 days later, March 30th:



So, in 6 days time, April 5th, will there be almost 1.5 million cases? And 70,000 deaths?
