Wow. Just saw NY posted a big number at the end of the day to caused new cases to be higher today then yesterday. Almost 33% of new cases today we're from NY and 40% of deaths were from NY
Worldometers and most tracking sites take the NY number from their morning release. The 730+ number out of NY was as of Cuomo's morning presser for the previous day's count.
And it changed tonight which surprised me
Everywhere I look I still see 5489 total for NY (from 11am this morning), what is your source?
Worldometers had it at 6,900 and now has it at 10,500
I also see 5,489 total deaths for NY. Total US deaths are 12,854. This is all on the following URL:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/
New cases not new deaths. I was saying the new cases went way up because of a big number add at the end of the day for NY. Had to check my original post to make sure I said that and not new deaths
Sorry RunsWithWolves26, I misunderstood your post and was focusing on the 40% deaths increase comment. I just checked the time series data and here is what I see for NY for daily cases:
Time Series Data is from the covidtracking.com website (tabulated from the daily NY press conference)
Date..............
Cases4/7...............138,863
4/6...............130,689
4/5...............122,031
4/4...............113,704
4/3...............102,863
4/2............... 92,381
142,384 <== Current cases as reported by Worldometers -- increase of 10,468 cases
I can see where Worldometer is reporting an increase of 10,468 cases where I am only seeing a 8,174. I suspect there are differences from when the reports are being tabulate that cause these differences. The reporting on all of these numbers are tricky. There are definitely differences from state to state in the tabulation methods for the reporting (time of day and lags in reporting inside the states) causing these discrepancies. This is one of the things that adds noise to the data and makes it harder to forecast accurate trends. The covidtracking.com website has not updated the time series data for today, but I suspect it could be closer to Worldometer's case count of 142,384 cases.
