And I can't help but notice that the rate in the UK is ahead of the 'catastrophic' Italian curve; though the UK's case trajectory rate (which can be found via the above link) is below Italy's. This may, however, reflect less thorough testing in the UK.

For what it's worth, the US case trajectory rate at 15 days since 100 cases were identified (again accessible via link) is now second only to China's at the same stage. Good luck with that.


Oh, and for all of you Plague Inc aficionados...

Greenland, Cuba, and Madagascar have all now recorded cases.

It got into Madagascar? This is no normal disease, it's The Wrath of God. :shock:

In the United States Noah was the most popular male name for several years in a row this decade; it's been a very popular name for the past 20 years or so now. I've known quite a few guys named Noah.
