    One of the things I noted in the FL-corona thread is that the increase of death counts can be a little misleading. For instance, when FL had a 70-count jump, those were mostly cases being counted beyond even the most recent two weeks. For instance, the June 3rd report shows 10 consecutive days of single digit new death counts (from 5/24 through 6/2); now those numbers will be expected to rise somewhat over time as cases get counted, but we are down from the highs of 50's, 60's, and 70's back in mid-April.

    So, let me get this straight. The 70 deaths yesterday didn't happen yesterday, they were just reported yesterday and will be recorded as happening on some previous date?

    Not meant to sound celebratory or negative towards Mexico, I just thought it an interesting stat worth sharing. As of 6/3, Mexico passed the United States in the number of Covid related deaths for a single day.

    Honestly Folks, in fairness, don't ya'll think Covid - 19 is under-reported?
    At least in some countries?

    I have never respected the Chinese info. Total BS IMO.

    They were building hospitals in two weeks to support the sick.
    No way I believe those totals, no way.

    Certainly the reporting in poorer nations must be off?

    Brazil and Mexico are getting hit hard now. Bolsenaro makes me want to puke.

    Hopefully this thread will fade away. With the virus. One can hope and pray.

    I think the days of the police stopping people from being out and about are over due to the Coronavirus. If they are allowing protests to gather then any city will have a hard time enforcing a church or bar or stadium from having a gathering.
