April 7th outlook for #COVID19 fatality curves:
1. The US flattening is easily seen now, but tops the chart and is headed towards 2,000/day
2. New York shows the same story compared with the other key regions and US states

If we're "lucky" the next 40 days for the US curve (dashed line) may look like this, with a long shoulder/plateau phase (due to wide spread, millions of confirmed cases) and very gradual descent
A couple of other comments on this regional graph
—Washington state's increased slope is quite concerning and it's a trend over ~ days
—New Jersey took a turn for the worse
(whether either is related to the "weekend" data delay effect is unclear)
