WUHAN FLU [CORONAVIRUS] UPDATE for November 27, 2020:
[Note scale change] My last update was a week ago (Nov 20, actually posted on the 21st). Since then I've been out of town and missed a few days of data. Here's today's data, with the missing days interpolated from the surrounding data.
Deaths continued to rise, peaking mid-week, and appearing now to be stabilizing. Even though deaths are rising sharply, the number of confirmed cases are rising even more sharply, and so the death rate continues to decline.
Georgia data remains in line with the national data, and the number of confirmed cases is appearing to be declining somewhat. Deaths peaked Nov. 14th, and have declined by nearly half since. Hospitalizations, however, continue to rise.
It appears that we're moving to a more conventional 'flu' season as people move indoors: the coronavirus is spreading more easily, and becoming much less lethal as the number of cases rises more rapidly than the number of deaths.
