The number of new coronavirus cases each day appears to be falling in some nations — what’s known as flattening the curve.
But the number of new confirmed cases is still rising in the U.S., Spain, Germany and other countries. https://nyti.ms/2JEAduE

All of these countries have seen an average of more than 2,000 coronavirus cases per day in the past week, and most of them are not showing any signs of a slowdown. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
These charts are not without limitations. Still, they provide a way to measure the overall trajectory of the coronavirus in each country and give insight into which ones are far from controlling the virus. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
In Italy, the number of new coronavirus cases appears to be leveling off, most likely because of the country’s strict lockdown efforts. But the death toll continues to climb. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
China, where the pandemic began, appears to have drastically reduced both the number of new cases and new deaths. But it’s possible that the country is vastly understating its coronavirus totals. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
And in the U.S., the number of new confirmed cases is still multiplying rapidly, as some states continue to resist the most stringent measures. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
The trajectory of the coronavirus pandemic varies widely from country to country, but many are far from flattening their curve. See more data for nations with more than 50 confirmed cases here. http://nyti.ms/2JEAduE
