WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for April 4, 2020. Here's tonight's update. Note the scale change on the Reported Cases chart.


There's something fishy in Denmark on the below chart. The Coronavirus Dashboard website shows over 8700 U.S. deaths today, up 1300 since yesterday, yet nowhere else can I find such a steep increase (Fox News is only reporting 7077 at 10:30 pm). If I use the Dashboard number, the death rate (plus signs on the chart) is on the high projection; if I use the Fox News number, the death rate is well below the the low projection (almost zero). Something's wrong - I don't trust either number.


Moreover, I'm seeing (here) that hospitalizations, and presumably deaths, are actually declining in the so-called hot spots. That's more in line with my own experience surfing the web.

Maybe some explanation tomorrow.
