NEW: situation update from Gauteng, where cases, test-positivity and admissions are all now falling (no, this is not driven by testing capacity/behaviour or by migration).
Deaths and excess deaths still rising, but based on timing of peak will not come close to Delta levels.
Some of the protesters inside the Capitol appear to be flying Confederate flags. That’s a pretty clear sign that at least some of the protesters are part of the white nationalist or white supremacist movement. https://t.co/LJW0A8erFl
BREAKING: The U.S. Capitol is on lockdown after pro-Trump protestors breached the building as Congress began to certify Electoral College votes for Biden. https://t.co/QiCIeY3ZPv
FT búið að breyta framsetningu sinni á gögnum um #COVID19. Enn ein snilldin. Fer ekki að sofa án þess að skoða nýjustu update. Toppnum líklega náð á Ítalíu. Mesta útbreiðslan er í US. Faraldurinn rís aftur í Kína og Japan þegar slakað er á aðgerðum til að hefta útbreiðslu.
NEW: Tues 31 March = overhaul of coronavirus trajectories
As the story shifts, the charts shift. We’re now focusing on *new* cases & deaths rather than running totals.
Why? Because key for any country is when today’s new cases are fewer than yesterday’s

Here’s our newest chart, tracking death tolls in cities & regions:
• Madrid recorded 272 deaths today. Higher than any day in Wuhan
• New York death toll surging
• Added London and Paris. London is where Lombardia was at same stage
All charts here: https://t.co/VcSZISFxzF
Umfjöllun FT heldur áfram að skara fram úr. Nú eru gögnin sundurliðuð niður á einstaka borgir.
Lombardia, Madrid, New York og mögulega London (sem gefur ekki upp gögn) komin á verri stað en Wuhan - þar sem veiran "varð til" og mannskaði var mestur.
I can’t overstate this:
Lombardia, Madrid & New York all on worse trajectories than Wuhan. London may be but we don’t have the data.
Wuhan remained locked down for two months.
Huge Western cities could stay locked down for months because they acted too slowly.

Stærri ríki Vesturlanda virðast hafa brugðist alltof seint við. Dauðsföll verða mun fleiri en í Kína sem settu útgöngubann fyrr á. M.v. reynslu Kínverja hefur útgöngubann ekki áhrif á fjölda dauðsfalla fyrr en 10 dögum eftir að það er sett á. Á meðan eru dauðsföll í veldisvexti.

Hér er svo önnur mynd um dauðsföll vegna #COVID19 sem sýnir öllu verri sögu. Stærstu ríki Vesturlanda eru á sömu leið og Kína sem fór verst Asíuríkja úr faraldrinum.

Við virðumst vera að standa okkur vel í að halda útbreiðslu #COVID19 í skefjum. Samanburðurinn er enn betri en myndin sýnir ef horft er til þess að við höfum tekið hlutfallslega mörg próf og erum góð í að rekja smit sem fjölgar greindum tilfellunum hér á landi.
And here’s the newest chart showing case trajectories in countries whose outbreaks began more recently. Today we added Indonesia, and we’ll add new countries every day.
