The sources are listed in the notes. It's there if you look at the chart and look at the numbers and scroll to the far right. You just need to put in a little bit of effort- it took me around a minute to find the sources a couple weeks ago. Critical thinking is necessary when looking for information.

The numbers listed are accurate for the country and the state of NY.

It's OK to open Vegas back up because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas

Another drive by from a poster from Massachusetts. 15 posts, signed up in March, stopped in to **** on our city and then buzzed off.

What is with all the trolling that goes on at the LV board?

I really don't know where the confusion is here. He clearly states that 606 people died on April 15th. He is reporting the information on April 16th. It seems pretty clear to me.

He is also wrong. That is no longer the Vegas line. Now it is...

“What happens here, only happens here”

Which obviously is not true of the virus...

I think you're crazy, but probably going to be right about this.

It sure is. You'll have to ask the CDC why they've chosen to show the numbers that way. My guess is, the City is reporting numbers separately from the State.

Number of deaths is displayed close to the 3-minute mark of the video. There is a downward trend in deaths in that state.

Wouldn't a press conference yesterday show numbers for the day before yesterday?

I thought I should post the following:


Counting Coronavirus Cases: Why It’s Harder Than It Might Seem

Three large organizations are counting the toll from Covid-19, but their counts often don’t line up

https://www.wsj.com/articles/countin...em-11587115801

A few excerpts:

... One day this week, the Johns Hopkins University’s global total of Covid-19 cases was about 65,000 higher than the Eurpean CDC figure and 99,000 higher than the WHO numbers. Its death counts were around 5,000 higher than the ECDC and 6,800 higher than the WHO.

According to university spokesman Douglas Donovan, Johns Hopkins’s data include cases that are laboratory confirmed, clinically diagnosed or presumptive positive.

Presumptive-positive cases are those that tested positive at local or state laboratories but are awaiting confirmation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Mr. Donovan said. Clinically diagnosed cases are those that haven’t received test results but are considered positive.

Its data sources are DXY, an online platform run by members of the Chinese medical community, WHO, ECDC, Twitter and online news sources.

“The process includes an automated system that flags anomalies in the data that team members then follow up manually to confirm the accuracy or correct the anomaly,” Mr. Donovan said.

Recently, the university removed around 30,000 cases from the numbers it had posted for France after The Wall Street Journal pointed out the website had double-counted cases in French nursing homes. The error made it briefly appear that France had passed Germany in total number of cases.

The university makes its data available through GitHub, an online repository where users can download the digital files and report issues with the records; around a thousand problems with the data have been reported.

The World Health Organization and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control update their case and death counts once a day...

The WHO’s numbers tend to be the lowest of the three organizations, they only publish "verified" cases, which they define to be laboratory-confirmed cases that are self-reported by member countries. The data are not edited nor are the data checked for quality control and mistakes.

The numbers reported by the Eurpean CDC tend to fall somewhere between Johns Hopkins and the WHO.

Cases from the U.K. and the European Union are assembled from an early-warning response system, the European Surveillance System known as TESSy, and official data presented by public health authorities on member country's websites. For the rest of the world, the organization just copies WHO data.

The ECDC records are subject to corrections, which means some numbers could shift from one day to the next, and there are also reporting differences.
