I am referring to a daily feature in the Daily Breeze newspaper. Among the page full of comprehensive statistics a new category has been entered. Sample -
Country Cases Deaths RECOVERIES
US 1,539,152 92,583 289,392
U.K. 250,141 35,422 1.101
France 180,934 28,052 62,681
Additional categories are: Cases/100K 4,704
Death rates 6.0
New deaths 1,589 These are the numbers for the US
For all too long grim dispatches arrived on our screens "11 People will die every 15 minutes!" The wonderful news coverage stopped just short of "We're all going to die!" which is hardly encouraging or most likely true.
Source: Jeff Goertzen, Southern California News Group His e-mail is jgoertzen@scng.com For myself, am mentally composing a letter of gratitude for including Recoveries. Previously I was reduced to speculation - 100 cases, 5 died, but 95 DID NOT. And I wondered what did happen to them? Now we know!
