Yep, what he meant was my display of the Y-scale was wrong. I used standard evenly spaced lines and plotted log ( 3-day avg reported cases ) on the Y-axis to easily judge delta log ( new cases )
Displaying the scale the correct way
It doesn't matter, the slope of the lines is what I'm looking for which is the growth rate when displaying new cases at a logarithmic scale.
Iran is accelerating and reached 154% week over week growth, 11.3 days to double.
Brazil and India are currently growing at the same pace, 3-day avg of 134.7% week over week, 16.3 days to double.
The USA is at 108% week over week, slightly trending back towards decline.
Japan and South Korea had a slight uptick, holding at just over 40 new cases per day.
Australia is holding at 12 cases per day
Canada is declining at 74% week over week, 16 days to half the numbers. (All thanks to Quebec's rapid decline, Ontario is growing again atm)
