worldometers has more complete info but here is an interesting chart I've also been tracking that compares the exponential growth of several countries after they reached 100 cases

Despite the differences in start times, the similarities in the curves are remarkable - although so are the deviations. I've basically been watching the US follow the same path as a few European countries, just on a lag of a few days.
- abeppu 7y agoI'm curious -- are there things that Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong doing that we should all copy? Their trajectory looks pretty different from that of other countries.
- petschge 7y agoCould you do the same with time after 500 (or 1000) cases. There is a whole bunch of parallel curves that seem to be displaced mostly because of differences in early testing but otherwise show the same growth rate.
- lubujackson 7y agoAwesome idea. But I'm curious about your data source since I don't see the biggest spike when China revised their numbers. How did you smooth that out?
