and many countries are seeing over 100% increase in new cases in the last week. Cuba, France, Greece, Thailand, Spain, Russia, etc. And in some countries the deaths are increasing rapidly as well. When I look at some of the graphs my eyes pop out of my head. This current spike in new cases isn't gradual in many countries, in fact it appears to go almost straight up, 90° angle.
