24,000 California!?

Most unpleasant numbers.

Pennsylvania is also suddenly exploding.

Italy saw +24k new cases yesterday; Germany, nearly so.

Europe and the United States are actually around the same in total new cases. Europe's new deaths are a bit higher, but not twice as high.

We're trying to round the corner.

At this rate we will hit half a million deaths before a vaccine can stem the tide.

I can't see any way that won't happen.

It didn't have to be like this. Wouldn't have been, if we hadn't had an anti-science bloviating idiot in charge.

Our graphs are odd.

But we seem to be slowly getting past the second wave.

Too slowly.

The blue bars are deaths.

Lines in bar charts are weekly averages.

The graph of positive tests is once again not a very clear indicator of what's going on.

@Cerberus That's right. There are many, many other indicators you have to follow.

We have a "Corona Dashboard".

With all possible indicators.

@Cerberus As do we all.

Reproduction rate up to 13 November.

Ours has pretty graphs and virus particles from sewage.

You can't make pretty graphs from sewage. :)

But that's just statewide, not very focused. You have to drill down for county, etc.

The hospital data are concerning.

@tchrist Your stats are a little better than ours currently.

@Robusto Which ones, positivity?

Cases and deaths/100k.

@tchrist Incidence of what?

Positive tests again?

@Cerberus That one, yes.

There's a huge amount of data of many kinds there. However, I know that the University does sewage sampling, but that isn't on the State dashboard.

@Cerberus But it's normalized to per 100k, which is a different kind of prevalence.

It seems the CDC has quietly updated some of their summary data. Elizabeth Warren leaned on them to fix some bad stats. Now black and hispanic rates are 3x that of non-hispanic white people.

Yeah, far from good.

I guess southeastern Colorado, the part by Texas, is out of ICU beds.

Nex Mexico is at position #4 there. Not where you want to be.

And in position #2 for death increases.

CDC says this winter will be the worst one for public health the country has ever seen.

@tchrist: This morning I woke up from a dream in which the Queen had declared Winston Churchill to be the Duke of Waukegan, Illinois, which was to be a hereditary title. I wonder what was second prize: Rockford?

@CowperKettle They stole Steven King's joke?

The results were close, but he even lost the Urban Dictionary vote.

I have a really great story to tell but I forgot everything about it. Other than that, it is really great. That's it. That's all there is.

What a gyp.

@Robusto No, second prize would have made him the Waukeshah of Wisconsin.

@Mitch That's because it started with your walking into a bar with your head.
