163,667 average daily cases Aug. 28-Sept.3. Down again. The hell. Not near yesterday’s average daily drop but still, it’s down, there are an average daily 659 fewer Amerks infected in this 7-day period than yesterday’s. Today’s cases average is 9,100/day fewer infections than the Sept. 1 week average. How can that be? Today’s it. is the fourth decrease in fourteen its on this metric, which I made up my own self.
There may be something awry with the Times’s data across the board: the unfathomable disparity between the Times, which had almost half again the deaths on the single day of Sept. 2 as did CDC and Johns Hopkins; the shocking Times case increase of Aug. 26-Sept. 1, followed by the huge drop in yesterday’s it. The Times has still got the 2,932 number up for the number of deaths the day of Sept. 2. The 7-Day average was 1,521. Today, Sept. 3, the daily deaths number is 1,978, a drop in one day of close to 1,000. Don’t make no sense. The 7-day average daily deaths Aug. 27-Sept. 2 was 1,521. Today, the Aug. 28-Sept. 3 it., it’s 1,550, an increase of, to me, an unsubstantiated, paltry 29 deaths/day. But look, I ain’t no good at math, maybe it makes sense to brainaics. It’s just unavoidable that either the New York Times is right and CDC and Hopkins are wrong, or CDC and the Johnnies are right and the Gray Lady has lost some grey matter.

166,080 Aug 26.-Sept. 1. Up >6,000/day, the largest increase over a previous iteration in the period under examination. An utter horror.

158,946 Aug. 24-30. Up over 2k/day.
156,886 Aug. 23-29. Up 741 ave/day. Up is bad. 741 represents a 0.47% increase over Aug. 22-28. Which is minuscule, but minuscule bad.
156,145 Aug. 22-28. Increase of ~ 800 ave/day. An unhealthy increase but the number has not (yet) exceeded that on Aug. 20-26. P'ert near, but not quite. I know, my eyes are squinting now.
