No correction for level of testing, just purely daily cases. Different mitigation efforts. What's driving such similar curves?


Honestly, that's pretty interesting. No idea. It's very perplexing. I still feel like the early catch and "flattening of the curve" here had to do with people being afraid and going into panic-driven lockdowns of their own. But as they have become increasingly less fearful, their habits have changed and that is driving the greater spread. But I really don't know; just wild guessing.

Check out the Worldometer site.

Probably not the best data, but they make some useful visual tools. They have the same sort of figures for death data, too, which might have been the better thing to use. I don' know.

Here are daily deaths of Sweden and Peru. We all know the story of Sweden, but Peru has had a strict military lockdown since March 16th.




I'm sure it's not so clean and clear-cut when looking at latitudes and this possible seasonal aspect when you examine everywhere, but just a few things I've seen discussed elsewhere and looks to make sense.
