As I& #39;ve warned, our daily death toll will *keep rising* until ~2 weeks AFTER we #FlattenTheCurve of new #coronavirus cases, but daily cases *may* be starting to level off (thread).
The cumulative #COVID19 death toll in the US has now surpassed #Spain and soon will exceed #Italy ( #China not accurate).
Worse, MANY #coronavirus deaths have *not* been reported in the US, and "confirmed" deaths in the UK are reportedly 80% too low.

New daily US #coronavirus cases *may* be near the peak, but we need to wait a few more days to confirm.

Trends differ regionally: #NY is further along than other US regions. As #NY flattens its curve, other hot zones may continue to see a surge in new #COVID cases.

The cumulative number of #COVID19 cases in the US (>462k) far exceeds any other country ( #Spain >146k) outside #China (data NOT accurate).
The US waited longer than most countries to start #coronavirus testing and STILL has no nationwide #lockdown. This is the result.

#NY has the highest recorded daily #COVID19 death toll (outside #China), and it will continue to rise ~2 weeks after new #coronavirus cases flatten.
For example, daily death tolls *still* remain high in #Spain (Madrid/Catalonia) and #Italy (Lombardy), even as new cases fall.

Deaths from #coronavirus in NJ and MI also continue to soar, followed by LA, CA, and FL.
The next month will be hell.
