Covid-19 Diary : Saturday 30 May, 2020

 

A power cut at lunchtime lasted 12 hours (originally promised to be only two hours) and so I was unable to send out a normal diary entry for Saturday.  Although there have been some riots in downtown Seattle, the power cut was due to “equipment failure”, possibly arising from a spectacular thunderstorm that had the skies forebodingly dark even in the otherwise should-have-been noonday sun.

But I wanted to preserve the daily data series so am recreating Saturday’s numbers now. Everything else will appear on Sunday.

Bahrain moved ahead of Mayotte – Mayotte reported no cases on Saturday. We’ve noticed sometimes Mayotte reports no cases for a day, but we think that is perhaps because the relevant department is closed. 🙂

More tomorrow, power willing.

  1. Here’s hoping there’s power tomorrow!

    I’m finding the lack of last week’s numbers makes the data less interesting — the day over day change is small and subject to daily variation that makes any trend somewhat visible.

    Since you already will sometimes add a 2nd row for an entry (to indicate unchanged) maybe put under today’s data the % change from last week.

    Just a thought!
