We had 78,000 new cases, which is a new record. We also had 1,141 deaths

Texas: 170 deaths (3rd highest)
California: 135 deaths (6th highest)

Cases continue to skyrocket. Deaths are still terrible.

Dr. Birx Says These Four Coronavirus Hotspots Are Beginning to Plateau

Yesterday the top four countries accounted for almost 60% of all deaths.

Sweden is rocking it.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Slightly better numbers today. ONLY 67,000 new cases and 908 deaths. Unfortunately, it's not a sign of improvement because this is definitely under-reported as data often is on the weekends.

Leading in deaths were the big four once again.

Arizona: 144 deaths (2nd highest)
Texas: 137 deaths (7th highest)
Florida: 125 deaths (8th highest)
California: 90 deaths (outside top 10)

In 5th place today, South Carolina hit a new record at 80 deaths.

Louisiana reported no new cases and no new deaths. At the rate they have been growing, that certainly has to be a mistake or just weekend under-reporting.

Louisiana is on the verge of passing New York in infection rate to become the most infected state. Coming in quickly behind Louisiana are Arizona and Florida.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Low numbers yesterday. I expect low numbers again today as well due to under-reporting.

Everything will likely be up tomorrow.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Louisiana now has the highest infection rate as they have passed New York.

Arizona and Florida are also rising quickly up that list.

Nationally, positive test rates are trending downward and that's a great sign. However, we still have several trouble spots. Arizona and Florida are consistently in the top 5 highest positive infection rates. Mississippi had a huge increase that propelled them into the highest infection rate.

Nevada spiked last week but they had a big decrease this week. Hopefully that continues. The lowest infected states in the North East have been very consistent lately.

Today we had 64,700 new cases and 1,245 new deaths. The number of deaths is the most we have had in two months.

Leading in deaths were the big 4 once again.

Florida: 186 deaths (new record)
California: 169 deaths (new record)
Texas: 120 deaths (outside top 10)
Arizona: 104 deaths (5th highest)

Louisiana and Arizona have taken over the top spots for highest infection rates, surpassing New York and New Jersey.

CA/TX/FL big death numbers today.

Arizona cases are already in decline:

Sweden is still rocking it.

 

[XponentialChaos]

67,000 new cases today and 1,485 new deaths. Terrible.

New cases have flattened a bit but deaths are still increasing.

Texas: 313 deaths (new record)
Florida: 216 deaths (new record)
California: 195 deaths (new record)
Georgia: 79 deaths (5th highest)

Arizona surprisingly not in the top 4 today. Hopefully they can keep their numbers down.

The positive infection rate is dropping and the number of new cases is flattening. These are signs that things may start to stabilize in the future, hopefully. But bodies are really starting to pile up as we hit record highs in Texas, Florida, and California.

Arizona and Florida with new record highs.

Arizona, Florida report record increase in COVID-19 deaths

Florida reported a record increase in new COVID-19 deaths for a third day in a row on Thursday, with 252 fatalities in the last 24 hours, according to the state health department.

[XponentialChaos]

Reminder: Arizona and Florida STILL don't have a mask mandate.

 

[XponentialChaos]

68,600 new cases and 1,465 new deaths. The big 4 leading once again in deaths.

Texas: 322 deaths (new record) (2 days in a row with a new high)
Florida: 252 deaths (new record) (3 days in a row with a new high)
Arizona: 172 deaths (new record)
California: 114 deaths (outside of their top 10)

Further down, Mississippi topped their record with 48 deaths.

The only news that isn't terrible is that the daily number of new cases is staying steady in the mid-to-upper 60 thousands. At least they're no longer growing. Maybe, just maybe, we can start to get the number of new cases to start decreasing. But I don't see that happening any time soon unfortunately.

Meanwhile, the bodies will continue to stack up. Especially in these four states. And based on the positive infection rates, I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing some numbers spike in the South. Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina.

 

[XponentialChaos]

71,000 new cases and 1,462 deaths.

Texas: 295 deaths (3rd highest)
Florida: 256 deaths (new record) (4 days in a row with a new high)
California: 191 deaths (new record)
Georgia: 81 deaths (4th highest)

Arizona had a decent day with only 68 deaths. But this comes after they hit a new high yesterday.

Further down, Mississippi hit a new record at 52 deaths. Nevada also hit a new high, but only at 29.

I tried this in a different thread and I thought it was pretty interesting so I decided to do it again here and expand upon it.

I'm looking at how state death rates have changed in the last two weeks. For example, New Jersey has the highest death rate. Their death rate is currently 1,791 per million. Two weeks ago it was 1,771 per million. So that's a +20 difference. I'm going to rank all of the states by death rate and indicate how much their death rate has changed in the last two weeks.

#1: New Jersey (+20)
#2: New York (+11)
#3: Massachusetts (+30)
#4: Connecticut (+10)
#5: Rhode Island (+16)
#6: Louisiana (+95)
#7: Michigan (+9)
#8: Illinois (+17)
#9: Delaware (+64)
#10: Maryland (+23)
#11: Mississippi (+117)
#12: Pennsylvania (+16)
#13: Arizona (+140)
#14: Indiana (+22)
#15: Georgia (+62)
#16: South Carolina (+120)
#17: Alabama (+65)
#18: Florida (+99)
#19: Colorado (+16)
#20: New Mexico (+39)
#21: New Hampshire (+80)
#22: Ohio (+33)
#23: Minnesota (+12)
#24: Iowa (+26)
#25: Nevada (+61)
#26: Virginia (+22)
#27: Texas (+96)
#28: California (+41)
#29: Missouri (+24)
#30: Washington (+20)
#31: North Carolina (+32)
#32: Nebraska (+16)
#33: Kentucky (+16)
#34: Wisconsin (+18)
#35: Tennessee (+33)
#36: Arkansas (+34)
#37: South Dakota (+20)
#38: Oklahoma (+25)
#39: North Dakota (+17)
#40: Kansas (+18)
#41: Idaho (+44)
#42: Utah (+21)
#43: Maine (+4)
#44: Vermont (+2)
#45: Oregon (+16)
#46: West Virginia (+9)
#47: Montana (+22)
#48: Wyoming (+3)
#49: Alaska (+8)
#50: Hawaii (+1)

Over the last two weeks, the fastest growing death rates are coming from:
Arizona (+140)
South Carolina (+120)
Mississippi (+117)
Florida (+99)
Texas (+96)
Louisiana (+95)

People in Arizona, per capita, are dying faster than anyone else. And they STILL don't have a mask mandate. They're not very smart.

========================================

Good news: positive infection rates decreased, but only slightly.

Alabama now has the highest positive infection rate. Arizona's positive infection rate is starting to drop off. Kansas had an increase that pushed them into the top 5. The lowest 5 states have remained pretty consistent for a while.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Florida: 245 deaths (3rd highest)
Texas: 205 deaths (7th highest)
California: 197 deaths (new record)
Georgia: 79 deaths (5th highest)

Arizona wasn't in the top 4. Their death rate has been growing the fastest, but at least they're improving by their own terrible standards.

California hit a new record today.
