#COVID19 incidence numbers going down again everywhere! #GoodNews

#COVID19 incidence trend. #Germany passing #USA and will hit an #incidence of 5000 in 3 weeks. #Ireland recovering fast. #Israel at maximum.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@TouchesTheClown Wow, this was fast. I think it got out of control. Some countries like Israel try a new strategy to let Omicron immunize the whole population. But what's about people at risk because of health problems and what's about long-term consequences which are not understood at all?

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

Maybe time for a new graph. #COVID19 7 days moving average(incidence). Sorry for the busy plot. But #Omicron hits many countries hard. I hope that those in charge know what they do. All the best to all of you. Take care!

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVID19 7 days moving average, now including #UK . Very dangerous development of the #UK incidences.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#Covid 7 days moving average. It is amazing how the 3rd wave crashed and numbers went down coherently, including #India . Unfortunately the situation is not good for #Colombia , #Brazil , #Russia , #Iran and #Spain .

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@MoAnja2 Ja, das ist eine gute Frage!

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVIDー19 7 days moving average. Very crowded. Sorry for that. Complex situation. #India in very serious condition with exponential growth for 2 weeks. #Turkey number 1 but flat. #Switzerland included. I would have expected more countries declining. It is not over yet.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVID19 7 days moving average of daily new infections. #Turkey dangerous exponential increase in March. Exponential increase for #Iran , #Colombia and #Canada . #France and #Sweden at high level. #US stable. #Israel , #UK disappearing, #India appearing.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@Roman19893778 excellent point!

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVIDー19 update. Some errors corrected. Happy Easter!

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@LuisNar91809332 I think that German politics is based on the idea that as EU member one should support an equal distribution of vaccines to all countries, even if a vaccine is produced in the own country. Germany also underestimated the shortage of vaccines in combination with the 3rd wave.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVID19 daily new infections per 100,000 citizens (for weekly incidence multiply by 7). #Germany has passed the US and increases exponentially together with #Colombia #Canada #Turkey . #France and #Czechia high. #Israel excellent recovery.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@GalacticRAVE Wow, Matthias! Not bad. You must have a really dark sky. Isn't it a little too cold for stargazing?

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@MoAnja2 Mehr Tests führen zwangsläufig zu mehr positiven Fällen vor allem wenn Infektionen mit leichten Symptomen unbemerkt bleiben.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVIDー19 daily new infections per 100,000 citizens. Numbers decreased significantly with several countries now below 10. Within the past few days we begin to see that the trend reverses with numbers going up again. Let's hope that this is just a small fluctuation.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@DavidSpergel @david_kipping Didn't Guth introduce inflation because of the flatness problem (+ missing magnetic monopoles ...). Then this is not a prediction by inflation but rather designed. The spectrum of microwave background fluctuations, resulting from quantum fluctuations is a prediction of inflation.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

@LindsayForbes17 Yes, and this despite massive vaccinations. Vaccinations protect other people probably only when a large fraction of the population is immune.

[Andreas Burkert @burkert_andreas]

#COVIDー19 daily new infections per 100,000 citizens. Ireland, Spain, Portugal at high peak and now at fast recovery. For a long time I haven't seen this plot with most countries going down and only a few still flat.
