EDIT: As ulrich brodowsky and others have pointed out, one major cause for Europe's second wave having more cases (therefore a lower fatality rate) than the first (discussed at 7:33), is that countries are able to do much more testing now than before! In the first wave, many mild cases probably went undetected, since COVID-19 was so new. But now, after 8 months to prepare, a higher percentage of infected people are found. Which is a step in the right direction!

People don't believe the virus exists :d;d;d;d The politicians are pressured by someone (I guess), whose interests are endangered by the lockdowns and don't do shit, as long as people die in hospitals, so that they don't carry the blame for it. ;d;d And we have a LOT of hospitals here, so we decided it is ok. Sadly the video ends on the 6th, when we used to have 6,6 deaths/million/day. Now 2 weeks later we went to 14,7 and half of the kids still go to school, many people don't wear masks, resturants and everything else (except clubs) are open, people are NOT getting tested at all (40-45% of tests are positive ;d) and we have a great argument on national TV whether mask are more harmful or helpful.. (nobody knows for sure). It's great. The memes are real. OH! ..AND according to national TV - 26% of people said that they would vaccinate themselves, 45% would not.

I'd love to mention tje deaths and injuries due to car accidents: similar to how the data points out previous pandemics. In the United States alone roughly 40,000ppl die in a year and 4.4million ppl are injured. Deaths: 40,000÷365days÷350 (US pop.)in millions gives a rough estimate of 0.3 deaths per million daily. Injuries: 4.4million÷365days÷350 (US pop.)in millions gives a rough estimate of 35 injuries per million daily. I thought a more wildly known cause of death, (such as car accidents) would be a good comparison to add to this data. 🤓🤓

Surprisingly, I have taken it seriously while was still in China, and no governments took measures. But now when governments takes measures that do more harm than good, I do not take it seriously anymore. I mean yes is worse than flu, maybe ten times worse, but the measures are 100 times tough, while flu is not taken seriously at all. I always was pissed of seeing people with flu in public, going to work, or even working in public places. I was not aware by the toll death of the flu, but I really did not liked to get it. And still the authorities, even aware of deaths did not took measures. I mean permitting people to stay home at the first sign. And people had no choice but to go to work or whatever they need, like getting food or medicine. For example for my medicine I need to get not only to pharmacy, but to family doctor too, to get prescription. He cannot give it to me without medical letter from hearth doctor. The hearth doctor cannot give prescription without recommendation from family doctor. And this after few years, when my treatment is well known and established. So instead of a single trip to pharmacy, I am forced to do one trip for recommendation, one for medical letter, one for prescription, and the last for medicine itself, all involving long queues of many other peoples in the same situation. And this happened even there was a flu epidemic ongoing. And it was not only flu, there are a lot of other unpleasant things one can get from a crowd in hospital. And plus that all this bureaucracy kept busy medical personnel, while other sick people suffer from access to medical care. Now with the new trend, yes some of those steps are avoided, but the rules will return when the new politics will consider proper. Not proper for public health, but for own interests. In a way I am glad that this global hysteria is raising awareness to hygiene, but since the measures are disproportionate to the danger, and other dangerously are not taken seriously, I stopped taking seriously this covid fashion too. Yes is more of a fashion than a real pandemic. I do not say that the virus does not exist. Actually the virus exists since long ago. As they say there are old fashion coronaviruses that cause the common cold, we know the common cold, we all had it, for centuries. And now suddenly in last two decades there comes three new of them. Really weird. And what is most weird is that I had this about 5 years ago. I got a nasty cold that almost wiped me out. the symptoms were really what they advertise now. It was so bad that i visited emergency room one day, but there were 100 more people waiting, so I decided to return home and suffer in my own bad than to suffer on a uncomfortable chair, exchanging viruses with others. But during the night got worse and I called an ambulance. I got some medicine prescription that did not quite helped. Anyway, the respiratory problems I blamed on my heart weakened some years before. Barely walking I looked for a heart doctor, but all were having appointments for 6 months in advance. Obviously they were busy writing prescriptions for those who needed medicine. So I just waited and weather got warmer an I got better on my own. After two years I managed to be examined and get my treatment. but still I have respiratory problems from that cold. Lung and throat doctors found nothing wrong. And I am not the only one in this situation, a friend of mine had it two years ago. Never got to the doctor. But was bad. I thought that we were hit by second sars version, but that was a decade ago and they declared it over. If it was over than what hit me and my friend and those hundreds from emergency room I saw, and maybe millions around the world? So for me this is just a common cold that is taken seriously disproportionately seriously. And the measures are doing more damage than help. So let see... 11,089,708Communicable disease deaths this year, 8 times more deaths due to other communicable diseases. What measures are against those? 417,988Seasonal flu deaths this year, so covid is three times worse. Was any measures against flu? at least three times less? I saw none. 1,436,073Deaths caused by HIV/AIDS this year so the death is comparable. Have we seen at least media coverage for this? not to say measures that ruins entire categories of people? 7,016,067Deaths caused by cancer this year. yeah , not transmissible, but still is 5 times more deaths than covid, there should be concern at lest. I was not quite hit by media coverage. 4,270,557Deaths caused by smoking this year, so three times more than covid. And yes, there are decades since this plague is under attack, but the war against it is incomparable with what happens with covid. 2,136,640Deaths caused by alcohol this year. Double than covid. But nobody talks about it. 916,090Suicides this year, almost as many, but this goes almost quietly. 1,153,198Road traffic accident fatalities this year. Yes the issue is covered, but barely, the world did not stopped because of it. So As you see, there are 25 times more fatalities happening around the world, but the causes are ignored or barely acknowledged, while because of covid, the world almost halted. So yes, even initially I took it seriously, I do not take it anymore. And I will not take it while the other fatality causes are not taken seriously.

very nicely done. My read on lower fatality rate on second wave is simply detection is better now. First wave, no one was really ready, not enough tests, low detection rate. Second wave, everyone is now MUCH better prepared. Detection rate looks to be much more accurate. My estimate is detection rate is 5x better in the second wave. This currently puts first and second waves as comparable (so far).

My additional 2cents are that probably many of the really vulnerable people are already dead by now. Plus, countries aren't going to repeat Italy's mistake from the first wave where they put Covid patients into free spots in nursing homes once the hospitals overflowed. I'd guess most countries have special protocols for nursing homes this time around. So, those old people who made it to the second wave should be better protected -> less deaths.

The average age of COVID infections is going down, which could be partly due to more school infections and less nursing home infections. However it could also be due to better detection, as younger, healthier infected people might have never gotten tested back in spring. I think you're right when you state both waves are comparable.

Living in Argentina, I can't believe there are people who still don't take this seriously. 4 people in my family have already died due to coronavirus, yet almost everyone I know still treats the pandemic as if it is nothing. I did quarantine ever since march very strictly, even when nobody else did. And yet, my family was the one who suffered from it the most. Sadly people here are so selfish that they don't even care about the pandemic even after seeing people die from it first-handedly. Compare us to Uruguay for example. Here, we had one of the longest and most strict quarantines of the world, with extreme government pressure on raising awarness about the pandemic... and people still don't give a crap about it. In Uruguay, they had NO quarantine at all, and people were responsible enough to do quarantine on their own. And what are the results? 33000 dead in Argentina, + 27000 cases per million people, while on Uruguay it's 61 dead, and 1000 cases per million people. I fell absolutely ashamed for my country. Sadly being apathetic and selfish is part of our culture.

A bit over a month ago I couldn't get tested because of a shortage of testing capacity, but at the peak of the second wave everyone could get tested again even though the number of cases only had gone up. They're opening XL testing locations now to increase capacity even further. While better treatment also definitely helps, I think the effect is mostly explained by the increased testing capacity.

Yes perhaps this is the biggest weakness of an otherwise excellent video. Available testing in European countries was very low at the start of the pandemic but mass testing is available in wave 2 meaning many more of the less severe cases are picked up. This affects the denominator in the Case/Fatality Ratio (CFR). Covid hasn't suddenly become a lot less deadly - we are just detecting more cases. This is completely understood by medical science since the start of the pandemic but the lay person may not appreciate the difference here between the CFR and the Infection Fatality Ratio (IFR) the latter takes into account that a lot of cases arent being detected early on in the pandemic - and estimates of the Infection Fatality Ratio have only fallen only a little over time. It is almost as deadly in the second wave as the first so this is not a reason to relax. As an illustration of the big differences in Cases/Deaths ratio (CFR) changing in Europe between Wave 1 (Spring) and Wave 2 (Autumn) is highlighted by testing capacity in the UK. Back in March /April the UK could only deliver 10,000 tests per day during the peak of the pandemic - when hundreds of thousands of people had Covid-19 at anyone time. Testing capacity increased slowly and before accelerating to around 100,000 tests per per day in May - but only after it had missed the peak of the first wave (which led to something like 1000 deaths per day at the start of April). Right now we have capacity for 500,000 tests per day - not far off enough to test 1% of the population every day (68million) and more than enough presently to test everyone who has symptoms as well as to start to rollout Chinese style mass testing of everyone in priority cities.

Just imagine how much MORE worse than the flu it would have been already, had the world not taken all these lockdown measures. Very good video, thank you!

T-cell immunity (or innate immune response) is the real protection happening with SARS-COV-2 , antibodies have little to do with it. Previous past Cor/ virus infections are common and immunity is long lasting. Even though SARS-Cov-2 is considered a novel virus it is easily recognized and understood by the T-cells memory recall and recognition RNA deciphering mechanisms. All Corona viruses share similar borrowed and hijacked proteins, molecular parts and genetic code sequencing. This is precisely why, for the vast majority of the population, the infections are either very mild or completely benign. Anyone with a general normal functioning immune system, has by the statistical data, essentially almost a zero percent chance of serious infection, or long term effects. Any vaccine at this stage of the (endemic equilibrium) high case count, low casualty numbers, with a low (RO) value (viral stasis) will have little or no benefit whatsoever. Focused protection on the small, subset population that are very old or severely immunocompromised is the only viable option. Naturally acquired Herd immunity is not an objective opinion or hypothesis, a theory, a strategy or a debate, it is biological law, like gravity or the laws of thermodynamics. It is the absolute truth, it never changes, alters, wavers or is effected by political, or monetary agenda. It exists and regularly occurs in every single pathogenic virus that has ever existed, whether anyone believes in it or not! All further funding and focus that is being wasted at a colossal scale on lock-downs, that are doing far more harm than good, should be funneled exclusively to the susceptible target group population, where it will actually have significant benefit and let the virus pass through the general healthy population at a normal rate. Any deviation from this narrative from the scientific community and government officials, will only prolong the suffering and cost far more lives to be lost, which is nothing less than crimes against humanity. Instead of trying desperately to prove to the world that they were right, it is long overdue time for all scientists to admit consensus and follow the exact public health protocol that has been unspokenly used for every pandemic in modern history, whereas naturally acquired population immunity (herd immunity) is the principal driving force and Not in refute. 1) kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqmOkrmmc5vbgJM.html 2) kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z61pk6mCc9Syaag.html / 3) kzread.info/dash/bejne/dJ-bttOkfJDIobw.html 4) kzread.info/dash/bejne/o2qApJSLoJeaqqQ.html

​@@ghwk-phd2784 Herd immunity itself isn't a strategy nor political, but going for natural herd immunity certainly is. Smallpox wasn't eradicated by natural herd immunity; Ebola isn't fought with herd immunity; herd immunity is not the only way. This virus is too infectious and too harmful to not fight with lockdowns. We know this because we have seen what happens when you don't: you get freezer trucks used as morgues. We do not have enough healthcare workers for 'focused protection' of the people who are at risk--which is a larger group than you make it out to be--and while young and healthy people certainly have a very low hospitalization rate, very low times everyone is too many people. Going for group immunity is not a viable option. The most viable option is keeping the virus in check with lockdowns where necessary until vaccines have been developed and distributed to enough people for an artificial herd immunity. We know it's possible to keep Covid in check because countries like New Zealand and many in Europe (before the second wave hit) managed it, and Europe would still be managing it if many governments weren't as slow to react. Yes, if we don't use lockdowns and let the virus spread, humanity will survive like it has done with past pandemics, but it wasn't and wouldn't be pretty. Also, it's not like we did nothing in past pandemics. In fact, we have one pandemic which clearly demonstrates how bad it can get when you don't respond: the Spanish flu.

While gay sex is banned, the government doesn't intefere. You can still have same sex relationships( my mom has a colleague who does and i know a friend who's also gay), the government just wouldn't acknoledge it legally and you won't get in trouble for participating in it. Otherwise events like the Pink Dot Parade couldn't exist. You can drink alcohol at night, just not in public spaces. I think this was the result of one of the riots we had a while back. Capital punishment for drugs to my memory has recently been more lenient. You'll still get in a ton of trouble for owning or selling non prescription drugs, capital punishment is just less likely now. So essentially while Singapore has laws like these in place, truth is the government closes one eye for some of these crimes as long as you don't broadcast it. A few laws I'm completely okay with is ones relating to the matter of littering, graffiti and toilet flushing. It keeps public spaces clean and it isn't particularly disruptive. But honestly the one with suicide and POFMA is complete bs. We also really need to change policies on how we treat single mothers. Yes, you can purchase houses in Singapore. It's just incredibly costly since land is a limited resource. The cheapest landed properties will cost you a minimum of almost $2 million sgd, depending on the market. Cars are expensive to keep car ownership to a minimum to prevent traffic congestion. Since public transport is generally decent, you dont need one anyway. Yes, cost of living is pretty high but a huge contributing factor is the high cost of housing, less so daily living expenses. Meals can cost as little as SGD3.00 or as high as SGD5 depending on where you purchase it. Of course, basic living expenses have been increasing over the years.

T-cell immunity (or innate immune response) is the real protection happening with SARS-COV-2 , antibodies have little to do with it. Previous past Cor/ virus infections are common and immunity is long lasting. Even though SARS-Cov-2 is considered a novel virus it is easily recognized and understood by the T-cells memory recall and recognition RNA deciphering mechanisms. All Corona viruses share similar borrowed and hijacked proteins, molecular parts and genetic code sequencing. This is precisely why, for the vast majority of the population, the infections are either very mild or completely benign. Anyone with a general normal functioning immune system, has by the statistical data, essentially almost a zero percent chance of serious infection, or long term effects. Any vaccine at this stage of the (endemic equilibrium) high case count, low casualty numbers, with a low (RO) value (viral stasis) will have little or no benefit whatsoever. Focused protection on the small, subset population that are very old or severely immunocompromised is the only viable option. Naturally acquired Herd immunity is not an objective opinion or hypothesis, a theory, a strategy or a debate, it is biological law, like gravity or the laws of thermodynamics. It is the absolute truth, it never changes, alters, wavers or is effected by political, or monetary agenda. It exists and regularly occurs in every single pathogenic virus that has ever existed, whether anyone believes in it or not! All further funding and focus that is being wasted at a colossal scale on lock-downs, that are doing far more harm than good, should be funneled exclusively to the susceptible target group population, where it will actually have significant benefit and let the virus pass through the general healthy population at a normal rate. Any deviation from this narrative from the scientific community and government officials, will only prolong the suffering and cost far more lives to be lost, which is nothing less than crimes against humanity. Instead of trying desperately to prove to the world that they were right, it is long overdue time for all scientists to admit consensus and follow the exact public health protocol that has been unspokenly used for every pandemic in modern history, whereas naturally acquired population immunity (herd immunity) is the principal driving force and Not in refute. 1) kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqmOkrmmc5vbgJM.html 2) kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z61pk6mCc9Syaag.html / 3) kzread.info/dash/bejne/dJ-bttOkfJDIobw.html 4) kzread.info/dash/bejne/o2qApJSLoJeaqqQ.html

Has any single country acquired herd immunity yet? There are still huge number of cases in many countries every day and many ppl dying every day.

Nice way of showing the data... I would have liked a log and linear animation right after each other. Many people are not use to seeing a log plot, thus showing the animations side by side og after each other would help the understand how big a difference one decade (factor of 10) actually is. You actually have 4 decades here, thus there is a huge difference on lower left and upper right.

Omg, this is amazing! Incredible piece of work. I just expected the graph rolling and nothing more. We need subtitles to all languages.

I'm always "glad" to see another of your COVID graphs Cary.

Well that was a cool video! Can you make the next one on active cases to help us visualize it better- I know you are basically copy + pasting the data from worldometers, but you help us visualize it so much better!

Oh Cary, you are proceeding so much statistical data, and even explaining it, and even visualizing it in understandable way. But somehow, for some reason, the data for this particular disease is the most 'welcomed'. In your shoes, if I would like to improve myself (via visitor/s comments and ideas) I would definitely use this theme more often. Cheers ~~~

I know. It's infuriating to see how people disregard the rules, effectively prolonging this whole ordeal for everyone and causing more people to suffer and die. I have several of the known risk factors due to disability so I'm very afraid to get infected. My life is very limited because I can't trust other people to take the proper precautions. I have to wait it out, until enough people are vaccinated and even then, I will have to be very careful. Unfortunately, I will probably not be able to be vaccinated due to lower immune system, so I will have to hope that many others will, especielly those in my close proximity.

Well done! First time i see the rolling effect of cases/deaths.. It must be allot of effort to make this, respect!!! I made some on paper of deaths in a timeline but I stopped, to much countries.

@all - oh c'mon people. All viruses are 'assembled' of 3 things - RNA code, proteins and fats (to hold em together). UV light is known to destroy/dismantle proteins and fats, it just burns them. And the UV (as being the most high frequency illumination) is most absorbed by the atmosphere. So, when the atmosphere is thinnest? When the Sun is the highest - at moon and at summer, at mountain peaks etc. Every time and place where it is easy to get sunburn - such time and place is a extermination place for all kind of viruses. And all alive, in fact. But most animals are big enough to get just burn at the surface. Now viruses and bacteria - they are small, very small, so such conditions are deadly to them. So, the same said with few words - in the summer all the viruses and bacteria in the air are dying (disassembling) at much faster rate. The same in another wording - Uncle Sam is ill from Covid. So he touches a doorknob. If it is mild temperature, not much Sun (like in spring and autumn) - the viruses he leaves will live for 1-2 days. But, if there is Sun shining over that doorknob - the viruses will die in 1-2-3 hours. So, the transfer rate in such conditions is much lower - as the airborne + surface ways are the most 'used' by the viruses.

He explains it. When the deaths lag behind the new cases, the ratio of deaths/new cases is high.

Thank you very much for using GapMinder as the model!!!

GREAT visualization!

China in every repeat is just like: *Catching everyone's eyes* *Resting in X-axis* *Suddenly bouncing to be eye-catching again* *Final settlement* over and over again

I like the squares dropping in the shape of the flags. Please make an update :)

As always, very well made and very informative

Amazing visual representation! For the per day/per year issue Id say the best representation (and the one we've used in Australia) is the 7-day rolling average. Might solve your issues!
