I was on a coffee IV drip trying to do that this morning!
I am certain you will see similar lag times between confirmed symptomatic positives and hospitalizations and then between hospitalizations through to fatal outcomes when focusing individually on smaller countries or regions/individual states here in the U.S.
The variable that would probably shift those lag times when compared to last year, is that now that we have vaccines and some additional treatments, you may have a longer lag between hospitalization and a fatality or no fatality at all once hospitalization is no longer needed (even for some of the more severe cases).
