Compared to the 5 day average on the 24th (exactly one week ago) they are all down, so despite mid week throwing out higher numbers, week to week comparison is still moving in the right direction. USA is still slowly catching up to Europe, currently 8.2 days behind.

Were at least 2 weeks probably more behind Europe. A lot of States just ordered their stay at home policies in the last 48 hours and there are still a lot of states without an order declared t.

With that time difference I mean how far (or little) behind the USA is in total detected cases vs total detected cases in Europe. Since the USA is steadily catching up it's clear they started measures later. The question is, will the USA peak higher than Europe, which seems likely given the slower response in the USA. Once Europe peaks USA will catch up fast like what's currently happening with Spain and Italy. Spain will pass Italy total in total detected cases.

There are some wildcards in Europe though, Turkey is starting to come up from behind and I have no idea of what Greece is doing.
