  • The Vaxx Path

    Today we look at a wee graphic from the BBC examining the current state of Covid-19 vaccines. None have been approved, but 163 are on the path to approval. This falls into the category of not everything has to be super complex. Each vaccine is shown as a discrete unit, a small square. For me…

  • Red Sox Starting Rotation: A Dumpster Fire in a Dumpster Fire Year

    Baseball for the Red Sox starts on Friday. Am I glad baseball is back? Yes? I love the sport and will be glad that it’s back on the air to give me something to watch. But the But the way it’s being done boggles the mind. Here today I don’t want to get into the…

  • Consumer Payment Methods During the Corona Times

    Okay, so we’re going to post some more of my work today, but it’s not about cases and deaths. Instead, I took some data produced by my colleagues and thought that it could do for a small transformation from a table into a chart. The original table can be found in their report on consumer…

  • Corona Curves

    It’s Friday. I’d normally say something like we’ve survived this far, but the fact of the matter is that thousands have not. But, still, let’s try to keep it a little light. So here’s something from xkcd about the shape of the various curve potentials for Covid-19. Credit for the piece goes to Randall Munroe.

  • Wednesday’s Covid-19 Data

    Here we have the data from Wednesday for Covid-19. Pennsylvania saw continued spread of the virus. Notably, Monroe County in eastern Pennsylvania passed 1000 cases. It was one of the state’s earliest hotspots. That appears to have been because it was advertised as a corona respite for people from New York, not too far to…

  • Comparing Covid-19 to Influenza

    I want to share a small graphic I made yesterday evening. And I am being charitable with the term graphic. Really it is nothing more than a collection of organised factettes. But I have seen the footage of those protesting the lockdowns in various states, including Pennsylvania. To be clear, people can have different policy…

  • Covid-19 Data from Monday

    Monday’s Covid-19 data for Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, and Illinois provided a glimmer of good news, most notably in Pennsylvania. That, however, occurred on the same day as a protest in Harrisburg that could set the state back days if not weeks. More on that below. Pennsylvania saw fewer than 1000 new cases for…

  • Sunday’s Covid-19 Data

    Here is a look at the data from Sunday’s releases on the COVID-19 outbreak in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and Illinois. I’ve omitted Delaware because they paused reporting on Sunday to move to a noontime release instead of their previous end-of-day. I’m not exactly certain what that means for the data on Delaware and reporting…

  • Monday Covid-19 Data

    The data from Monday provided yet more evidence that the outbreak is flattening in several states. However, in some, the outbreak continues to pick up steam. Does this runs contrary to the idea that as a country is flattening? Not necessarily, but it is important to remember that a country that spans a continent and…

  • Sunday Covid-19 Data

    Another day, more cases of coronavirus and Covid-19. So let’s take a look at Sunday’s data as there were some interesting things going on. First, let’s dispense with Virginia. The state is enhancing its reporting structure, and so they admit the data is likely an underestimate of the present situation in Virginia. So here’s Virginia,…
