Confirmed Daily COVID-19 Cases - A Global Comparison to the United States

Updated July 15, 2020


This is going to be an extremely short posting. 

 

Thanks to Professor Wade Fagen-Ulmschneider, a Teaching Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana -Champaign and his 91-DIVOC website, we have this graphic which shows the daily number of newly confirmed COVID-19 cases with the cases in the United States highlighted:



Here is a graph with daily number of new confirmed COVID-19 cases for all states with New York highlighted showing where the problems lie:

 


Can anyone explain why, as a whole, the United States is a stand-out when it comes to the growth in the number of new daily confirmed cases when compared to all other nations, including its advanced economy peers in Europe?  Even when normalized by population, the United States is still rather anomalous when two of the largest Southern Hemisphere nations of South African and Brazil, both of which are relatively early in their experience with COVID-10 are included as shown here:



Even Sweden with its minimalist approach to the pandemic hasn’t had an experience like the United States (when normalized by population) although it is somewhat similar since it did have a second peak which appears to have been passed:

    The answer is simple: Orange Man Bad. This is an effort to rid the world of Trump. Yes, it is that simple. Two days ago in Florida,333 testing labs published a 100% positive rate. Also, listen to the WHO's Tedros say that it is not the virus that is the greatest danger now but LEADERSHIP AND SOLIDARITY. This is about the NWO, lead by the CCP.

  2. It might be due to distance and timing. New York had an early outbreak due to travel from heavily infected countries, and California didn't. It now looks like California is in the early stages of its own outbreak. California is 3,000 miles west, and that may have delayed the spread from New York.

    New York's outbreak is essentially over, and California's is just beginning.
