I really like seeing this: March 26 vs March 30
Most US cities #COVID19 hit are flattening the slope of their fatality curves and increasing deaths doubling time

I wouldn't have predicted this yesterday from @jburnmurdoch's graph, when each US hotspot region (NY, MI, NJ, FL, LA, CA, WA) was steep. That's changing now. Look forward to today's @FT update to confirm.
It's encouraging. We still need a national lockdown to amplify this signal

The @FT update today (March 30th) confirms the flattening for many US cities death curve slopes, particularly MI, FL, NJ, WA (albeit NY still steep).
Yes, this is encouraging and independent confirmation of a good US trend. Graph by @jburnmurdoch

This morning's update confirms flattening of these curves for most cities/ regions. An exception is Michigan which has a steeper slope
And yes, it's some further evidence that supports the impact of physical distancing nytimes.com/2020/03/30/hea…
