Statistics and graph are updated daily so you can see when the curve begins to flatten and we can discuss what it means:

Hi Don,
You look like you like to see things in numbers. Where are you getting the data for your graphs? My go-to for reliable information is the Center for Disease Control https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/cases-in-us.html

If you use Twitter @EricTopol https://twitter.com/EricTopol is good source for data-driven information from a variety of sources.

Mayo Clinic News Network wrote this article to explain the importance of flattening the curve https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/covid-19-flattening-the-curve/

This meme is a great visual for social distancing:

I've updated the PDF file with statistics and graphs through 2020-03-24. Users can also download XLS spreadsheet with both statistics and graphs, and JPG versions of the US and worldwide graphs of confirmed cases and deaths. The US cases continue to rise sharply with more testing, but the increase in US deaths decreased by 10 for the first time in a week. It may just be noise due to reporting timing. The next few days will tell. The alternate file format files are here:

Smart phone data shows how Americans are doing in social distancing....
The Washington Post: Smartphone data reveal which Americans are social distancing (and not).

US daily death rate of change continues to rise with no sign of flattening out yet. See PDF version of statistics, graphs, and references here:

Check out the John Hopkins Research Interactive Map which is updated hourly with data from the WHO and CDC:
https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html
The map now shows that the US exceeds all other countries in number of confirmed cases including China, Italy, and Spain. If you click on US cases, you can see the subtotals for cities, counties, and states.

My daughter forwarded me a simple statement made by her husband's CEO... "It's always darkest before dawn" ... So, we need to take heart, this crisis may seem dark now, but we cannot give up hope.

A question I have about the statistics is, why is the death rate as a % of confirmed cases worldwide and in the US rising instead of falling. I thought the earlier predictions were that it would approach 1%. The US dropped to 1.3% but is now back up to 1.5%.
