I guess we have to wait. Do you expect the counts to shoot up 10x or 10%?
* Not sure how to read the Japanese study. There were 3700 passengers on that ship, the CT study only tracks 101 of them. I could not figure out the selection process. Furthermore, how does this compare to the annual flu? Quick Internet search: "Chest CT findings of influenza virus‐associated pneumonia in 12 adult patients" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4941884 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4941884. Sounds ominous, and yet here we are.
* Yay for a better website!
* Who is better positioned to succeed in asking countries for permission to release the data: random citizens, or the researchers that already have connections to the respective countries health departments on this very topic? Stop hiding behind bureaucratic excuses. Pull whatever strings you have to pull to get the data published.
Edit: Another presentation of the euromomo data: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2020/04/16/tracking-covid-19-excess-deaths-across-countries https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2020/04/16/tracking.... Looks quite a bit more balanced than the NYT piece.
