I compared the growth between China, USA and Europe

The time scale at the bottom is for the USA,
The USA is 10 days behind Europe and 47 days behind China in the above graph
The thick line is the average growth rate, the thin lower line the avg daily death toll.

Europe was adding 23K cases a day on average on March 23rd, average growth factor of 1.06 and is slowly flattening out
The USA was adding 10.2K cases a day on average on March 23rd, average growth factor of 1.25
Europe was at 10.7K cases a day on March 16th with an average growth factor of 1.16

The USA is catching up to Europe, more needs to be done to slow the growth in the USA.
