testing ramped up? Blues Heron Apr 2020 #4
Suspect that is a reporting glitch Maeve Apr 2020 #5
I think tests got reported as cases. Same number. CanonRay Apr 2020 #7
Fat finger mistake. Wellstone ruled Apr 2020 #21
I think that is an error. Other sites are not shoing that. hlthe2b Apr 2020 #6
Where did you get the per capita info? I've been looking and looking... LAS14 Apr 2020 #8
Worldometers has a cases per 1 million column, but it is skewed by this bad data. CanonRay Apr 2020 #9
Thanks!! Exactly what I'd been looking for. nt LAS14 Apr 2020 #16

A teenager from Washington state created the pages in Dec.

It is updated pretty often, is searchable by country and state. The by state numbers might have to rely on indi. state health departments for the updates, so they might not change as often. It is accurate. The numbers agree with numbers from other sites, such as Worldometer and some state health departments I am checking.

I've been looking at this every day for Ohio. At the bottom of the page are county by county, with a column for per capita.

And NV's numbers are 1/10 what you said.

Could you give us a link for what you are getting your info from?

Oh, yeah - what's happening in southern NV right now is that it's fixin' to rain. For us, that's an unusual occurrence.

That looks like a huge jump in cases you saw. Wow, I wonder what happened there.

We're supposed to stay home through April 30.. (at least MANY are).

I did see a 'state projection' a few days ago showing our peak wouldn't be until mid-May... but perhaps that was IF we didn't lower the curve....

Got Link?
