Covid-2019 - 2022-11-21

Here's a milestone, but not a trustworthy one. Today China extended its "days to double mortalities" to 1,000 -- showing the slowest trajectory of Covid spread in the world. What's odd is that it's coming at a time when China's daily new cases are at an all-time high. That's because this metric relies on deaths (that is, reported deaths) which are still nearly nonexistent in China.
