Coronavirus deaths this month!

MONDAY, JUNE 15, 2020

In theory, information is good:
In theory, information is good.

With that in mind, we extend a discussion from last week with some information about coronavirus deaths this month.

On a national basis, daily deaths continue to drop. That doesn't mean they won't go back up—but according to the Washington Post, these are the most recent numbers:
Coronavirus deaths, nationwide
June 8: 498
June 9: 959
June 10: 843
June 11: 897
June 12: 758
June 13: 626
June 14: 395

Current seven-day average:
710.9
The current seven-day average stands at 710.9. That represents an ongoing improvement. For example:

The seven-day average at the end of May was 925.6 (May 25-31). The seven-day average at the start of June was 803.4 (June 1-7).

These national numbers are dropping. That doesn't mean they won't go up again. Then again, maybe they won't.

At this point, have we had "the worst epidemic in the world?" At this point, we certainly have—if you refuse, forget, or simply don't want to adjust for size of population.

If you do adjust, some of the numbers look like this. We're using Kevin Drum's numbers:
Coronavirus deaths per million, as of June 14
United Kingdom: 633
Italy: 572
France: 439
United States: 352
Does it look like we've had it worse than everyone else?

At some point, we may surpass everyone else, but we haven't gotten there yet. Meanwhile, according to Worldometer data, Spain isn't far behind the U.K., and Belgium still has the worst death figure (834 per million).

In theory, information is good. None of these statistics are perfect, but there's more information where that came from, especially if you don't turn to cable!

You should always insist on reasonable data when you visit the data store. Also, you should assume that everything you read or hear is quite probably wrong.

    Dear Bob,
    for a famous stickler for comparing apples with apples, I'm surprised you have no problem mentioning Belgium together with the US of A.

    Wouldn't it make more sense to compare
    Belgium: 834 per million, with
    New York: 1,589 per million.

    Okay, dear Bob?

  2. “The current seven-day average stands at 710.9”

    But then Somerby compares overall death rates in the US with the UK, Italy, and France.

    To be consistent, wouldn’t you want to compare seven-day averages?

    That shows Italy and France with much lower numbers than the US.

    Of the three, only the UK has a rolling 7-day average that approximates that of the US.

  3. The seven-day average is for the nation as a whole. It is decreasing because deaths in hot spots such as NY have greatly decreased. That obscures the fact that deaths are increasing across the Sunbelt, where AZ is experiencing severe strain on its health care resources. This is not the time to relax -- and that is the point of looking at stats -- to decide how to behave, not to play foolish games about which nation is doing best or worst by some cherry-picked metric.

  4. I want to thank Dr Williams a very powerful spell caster who help me to bring my husband back to me, few month ago i have a serious problem with my husband, to the extend that he left the house, and he started dating another woman and he stayed with the woman, i tried all i can to bring him back, but all my effort was useless until the day my friend came to my house and i told her every thing that had happened between me and my husband, then she told me of a powerful spell caster who help her when she was in the same problem I then contact Dr Williams and told him every thing and he told me not to worry my self again that my husband will come back to me after he has cast a spell on him, i thought it was a joke, after he had finish casting the spell, he told me that he had just finish casting the spell, to my greatest surprise within 48 hours, my husband really came back begging me to forgive him, if you need his help you can contact him with via email: drwilliams533@gmail.com,and to greatest surprise the lady caster a love spell on my husband,am so grateful to Dr Williams and my wonderful friend.

  6. An interesting article on the Howler a couple of days later refers to the need to give the "whole truth." Inspired but that column, here is minor edit to this column:

    Coronavirus deaths per million, as of June 14
    United Kingdom: 633
    Italy: 572
    France: 439
    United States: 352
    About 180 other countries: < 352

    Does it look like we've had it worse than everyone else? Yes it does, or at least worst that almost everyone else.

    1. I'm sure you'll be happy to see this:
      WASHINGTON D.C. - U.S Rep. Steve Scalise sent out a Tweet saying, "Just sent letters to the Democrat governors of NY, NJ, CA, PA, and MI demanding they explain why they ignored protocols and forced COVID-19 patients into nursing homes."

    2. Ooooh. A letter. Is that more legally binding then the Congressional subpoenas that Republicans usually shrug off?

  7. I had not seen those numbers before. How ever cases are going up in some places like Arizona. And we have seen all these protesters marching. It looks like many of them were wearing masks. So it will be interesting to see if the death rates spike.

  10. Hi viewers online, I'm Alfonso Vázquez from Mexico. I'm here to share my testimony about how i was helped to get my wife back. I was a cheat and my wife caught me several times. I tried fixing myself and each time i ended up cheating over and over again. I guess i didn't realise what she meant to me until she had left me alone. I began to find a way to get her back but nothing seems to work out perfectly till i came across an article about Lord Zakuza who helped a lot of people globally to get their relationships back. I made contact with him on his WhatsApp number via +1 740-573-9483 and he assured me that my wife will come back to me within 48 hours with his powerful magics and i paid 410 Euros for the materials needed for the work. Surprisingly, my wife came back home after 2 days saying that she still loves me and i swore never to cheat on her anymore. All thanks to Lord Zakuza. Email him via ( lordzakuza7@gmail.com ) or WhatsApp number via +1 740-573-9483.
