Things are looking good basically everywhere except poor Italy. The UK is close to wrapping up Covid, Canada is pretty close even without great vaccine supplies, and so forth.
Is Italy getting hammered by a variant or something plus low vaccination rates? Their death rate has been going up this whole month - they're almost back up to 8 deaths/day/million.
Brazil is really the worrisome hotspot at the moment. Things are completely out of control -- over 100,000 new cases a day, hospitals and morgues are overflowing, and their batshit president is basically doing nothing, if not actually *encouraging* people to flout mask-wearing and distancing advice from health authorities. The man's a menace to global health at this point and should be sanctioned or something.
If you go to the Guardian they have a chart for the Big Three stats for the UK (cases, hospitalization, and deaths). The case decline has halted and might even be reversed.
Kevins charts don't give the full picture of global covid. Brazil and Uruguay have been increasing badly, as has Eastern Europe - Hungary, Romania, Poland all have seen an upward swing in deaths.
Don't jump the gun. Case counts are climbing in France and Germany and deaths may follow in another week or two.
MI, bloody thumb and all, giving NJ a run for it's money to get to the top--both above 40 new cases/day/100K with rising hospitalizations...and deaths might be trending up too.
The rest in the red are not faring well: NY (data artifacts had made it look like it was getting better), MA, CT, RI, PA.
At the other end MO and WA got out of the pool. leaving OR, CA, NV, AZ, NM, OK, AR, LA, MS and 'Bama below 10 new cases/day/100K....and HI, PR and NMI.
MN and SD still rising--both almost at 23 now.
Big states. CA fine at 6.5; TX bouncing around 13 and FL moving on up, now at 22. NY is ugly at 31, PA at 26 is catching up and IL is trend the wrong way at almost 16 and rising.
