just to play devil's advocate, wouldn't the 7-day rolling average death rate start to climb 10-14 days AFTER this spike in cases -- when people actually start dying?

Umm, look at the chart. Where was that “lag” and gap with the first spike?

sorry, I treated the case line as New Cases instead of a rolling average

JBE sucks.

You realize that deaths are true number while known infections are only as good as the number of tests.

There is absolutely no doubt that more infections will result in more deaths. It isn't a debatable statement.

Whether it results in an unmanageable amount is a different story.

Even with one of the most conservative IFRs of .03 you will still see more deaths with more infections.
