Steepness of lines shows how much faster the growth in cases, positivity rate and hospitalizations is in Omicron wave vs past waves.
#COVIDisExponential
NEW: today’s update from Gauteng, now on a log scale to better show current trajectories.
Steepness of lines shows how much faster the growth in cases and positivity is now vs past waves, and hospital admissions are now steepening too as the acceleration in cases feeds through.
Transmission. Matters. The most.

@DrEricDing Note: I didn't calculate them. I've *read* them from the graph ⬇️

1.5 year of the virus that grows or declines exponentially. Please: let’s use #LogScale (on log scale exp. growth or decay looks like straight line —> log scale is obfuscation and spin proof)

@BCNThomson @DrEricDing @DrKatrin_Rabiei Not correct. Growth rate of cases in SA is much higher (faster surge) than in Portugal, Spain and Sweden.
When you use log scale it is easy to compare surges and read the doubling times from graph:
SA: 3-4 days
Spain & Portugal: 12-14 days
