Admission-Death interval
The time between a patient& #39;s admission to hospital and death is a measure of quality of hospital-care as well as early-detectionn
46% of TN& #39;s deaths occur within 2 days of admission

One important caveat here is that TN and KAR are in different stages of their epidemics, and most of KAR& #39;s metrics (mean age,A-D interval,R-D interval) have improved from Aug to Sep.
Common:
- Mean age of deaths is rising with time in all 3 states
