Your Covid Toolbox
Covid-19 can be contentious—often because the discussion is emotional. But arguments can be converted into discussions when some easy-to-understand numbers are slipped in. Facts beat abstract.
This paper reviews our first 32-weeks experience with Covid-19 (CV). It covers:
Table 1: A simple summary of Tests, Cases and Deaths by week and by period.
Table 2: The population, area, and density of each state. You’ll see how different each is. And you’ll understand why states with lower densities typically have lower CV death rates.
Table 3: You’ll see numbers showing that our weekly deaths have dropped almost 40% in the past 16 weeks. And you can see which states are helping (and hurting) the most.
Tables 4 & 5: Likewise, see tests and cases are surprisingly diverse.

4 年?? Great stuff Brian. I watch Bloomberg and CNBC late most nights and early am to keep abreast of markets and if what I’m reading is correct the next few phases of statistics will be the telling ones( and possibly not good?) Hopefully the vaccines will start to impact positively within 6 months. I really enjoy your work. Cheers Gaz
