Thanks, though i would have liked the links to the 4 other graphs, i guess it is all somewhere on the OECD page.

Sometimes i like to have evidence and hard numbers, to at least counter the wildest defamatory statements with evidence and some common sense.
Not that it makes a difference to the true believers

Ah, no problem, here you go, complete source, and it comes from the NIH, so no claiming it's 'foreign propaganda':

Thanks again. But you are of course wrong, all that differs from Trump's war on truth must be foreign propaganda and fake news, or even science (gasp). Thanks for standing together in those times Mr. President, we will not forget it.

Le Meh. Not gonna turn this into a political cluster*YAY*, just pointing out that this level of inefficiency is hurting everyone, me included, considering the far-reaching consequences of what happens in the States.

Will warmer weather help fight the coronavirus? Singapore and Australia suggest maybe not.
Quote:
Here is one area in which experts hope the virus will still behave like influenza, however, by tapering off in spring.

Warm weather slows the flu: Influenza thrives in cold and dry conditions, and behavioral differences in winter can also have an effect.

Nelson Michael, a leading US military medical researcher, predicted the coronavirus may behave like the flu and give us "less trouble as the weather warms up," but, he cautioned, it could come back when the weather gets cold again.

But warm countries around the world still have outbreaks.More than 100 cases have been confirmed in Singapore, where it's hot and muggy pretty much year round. Australia, Brazil and Argentina, all currently in the middle of summer, have also reported dozens of cases. And some of the worst hit areas around the world -- from Wuhan, where the virus was first detected, to Iran, Italy and South Korea -- are on more or less the same latitude, with similar temperatures and relative humidity

A variety of other factors also affect how this pandemic will play out, making influenza an inexact comparison -- for instance, the infectiousness of the virus and behaviors to reduce its spread.

"We are not dealing with a virus like influenza that behaves predictably every year," said Debra Chew, an assistant professor of medicine at Rutgers.New Jersey Medical School.
Canadian Prime Minister's wife tests positive for coronavirus.
Quote:
Grégoire Trudeau has mild symptoms and is feeling well, and will remain in isolation for 14 days, the Prime Minister's office said in a statement late Thursday.

She came down with mild flu-like symptoms Wednesday following a speaking engagement in the UK. Health officials are reaching out to those who've been in contact with her, the office said.

"The Prime Minister is in good health with no symptoms. As a precautionary measure and following the advice of doctors, he will be in isolation for a planned period of 14 days," the office said.

It added that on the advice of his doctors, he'll not be tested since he has no symptoms. He'll continue with his duties, and plans to address Canadians on Friday.
London tube driver tests positive.
Quote:
A London Underground driver has tested positive for coronavirus, Transport for London has confirmed.

A TFL spokesperson said: “A train driver on the Jubilee line has tested positive for COVID-19. They are receiving support from health services and are self-isolating.

"Their duties mean they were not working in a customer facing area. The safety of our staff and customers is our top priority and we are taking all necessary precautions.

2,651 new cases confirmed in Italy on Thursday. Largest single-day increase so far. Total deaths top 1,000.
Quote:
Italy’s health ministry said as of 6 p.m. local time on March 12, there were a total of 15,113 cases, including 1,258 people who have recovered and 1,016 who have died.

All elite football in England has been suspended until at least 3 April as a result of the spread of coronavirus.

All Premier League games, EFL fixtures and matches in the FA Women's Super League and Women's Championship have been postponed.

The Premier League said action would resume on 4 April "subject to medical advice and conditions at the time".

The EU has suspended all fiscal rules and debt limits.

The german government has said it gives unlimited credit when and where needed. No capping.

The Germans skip capping of debts. If anyone still had doubts that the situation is serious - now his doubts should be dead as stone.

With the NHL Hockey season officially on hold, I am really " bummed out. " Baseball is also officially on hold as is The NCAA Basketball " March Madness tournament. "

My lady and I watch the Hockey games together as she is a great sport. She told me that with the cancellations, it will give us more time for things like in depth discussions. During the season, all I understand is defense men, centers and wingers and hockey fights

I'm wondering how she is going to react when she finds out I'm not capable of anything resembling " in depth discussions. "

Seriously, I think things will get worse before they get better with the Carona virus. I received word that the " Blessing of the Bikes " event scheduled for next month to kick of the motorcycling season will also most likely be cancelled. In good weather, it draws many thousands, many with their motorcycles, many from great distances.

Can we trust those that were padding the numbers of those infected?
