You can't see that the rate of deaths (red bar) has fallen for the last 3 days steadily?

Of course I can, and it has, we aren't debating that.
I was answering your question on how the numbers are calculated and responding to your statement:
"You need to be looking at the daily mortality increase and compare to the daily increase in new cases. That's how you know if your treatments are having any effect. If diagnosed cases are increasing by a larger percentage, than your deaths are increasing, you are making headway."
The blue lines on that graph represent the growth rate of new cases which for the last 5 days has been below the growth rate of deaths. Which according to your statement above would say that we aren't making headway.
