    A good find. Though, I do find it sobering to watch the numbers climb as I watch.

    I've been watching them for a couple weeks now. They have different numbers than the NYT and Johns Hopkins. They are all pretty close so I think its a data entry thing They do have some interesting metrics, but as things stand now its still bs carried to 8 decimal places IMO.

    I have to agree---at least in some of these statistics. One such "statistics" is the number of cases---we only know (possibly) how many have tested positive or were symptomatic and sought medical treatment. However, they keep saying that many (who knows the number) have had it and been asymptomatic. How many more self treated at home without medical intervention?
