Last Tuesday had 1054 deaths, today had 1121, a 6.4% increase over last week.

Given the upward trend of deaths as they follow 2-3 weeks behind the case curve, I think today is about where it should be. I'm happy the number wasn't higher.

I look in on this thread only now and then, so apologize if this has already been asked/answered.

The way you're reporting deaths, are you going by the count as reported on a particular day, or do your charts reflect deaths on the day they death was actually recorded?

To explain - I'll use Arizona for example. Something like half the deaths reported for AZ in July are from "death certificate matching," which means a) they're assumed COVID deaths (as opposed to tested/confirmed), and b) the death actually took place weeks ago ... as far back as March.

Thanks -
