Chart showing the Global COVID-19 Deaths May 19. Colors are showing the number of days to double the number of deaths.(Bubbles are clickable when paused in date)
I used deaths here, because they are the best indication of the growth of the number of cases and the number of cases are extremely sub-notified. The death growth rates in USA and most of west Europe have been going down. That is a good sign and the reason that some of the countries are reducing the social distancing measures .
Latin America cases have not been controlled yet. Brazil started social distancing earlier, but it is having a hard time to keep it and to reach a lower growth pattern.
