2,879 Deaths in one day, reported out yesterday, Dec. 3, breaking the "old" record of 2,804 reported on Dec. 2 and the old, old record, 2,607, of April 15.
278,563 Killed by Trump in just under ten months.
Trump also set a new daily record on Infections. 217,664 newly infected people reported on Dec. 3.
14,336,748 Infected by Trump in just under ten months. That is 4.3% of the entire population of the United States. And Trump, who lost the presidency to Joe Biden by 4.5%, is going to Georgia Saturday to campaign for the two Republican Senate candidates.
It's now clear that the trough that puzzled me yesterday was reporting lag owing to the Thanksgiving holiday. The latest (Nov 27-Dec. 3) iteration of the Cases seven-day average line rose almost vertically. Deaths seven-day average line almost-almost vertically.
The fourteen-day daily average Infections line is up 8% .
Hospitalizations fourteen-day average up 29%
Average daily Deaths up 37%.
