COV19 US Deaths by State 5/23/20


Cases and Deaths are trending down. We are approaching 1.7 million cases and 100,000 deaths.

As of 5/23/20, the US has 1,664,806 cases and 98,639 (5.9%) deaths from Coronavirus-19.

The % of deaths/cases will decline as more testing is done, because it will increase the denominator.

The US is moving down in its % of deaths/cases. The % of deaths/cases are up on 5/23/20 in 8 States, down in 10 States and flat in 32 States.  The trend is flat to down.  This is a rollercoaster ride with each State dealing with its own demographics and timing.

States are opening their businesses. The US has increased Testing and the number of Cases is increasing faster than the number of Deaths. This should result in lower Death %. 

I suspect that most people will only get a test if they have symptoms. I also suspect that most people who test positive would prefer to contact their own contacts and would resist having “tracers” do this to avoid more invasive “police-state” tactics.

I suspect that many people will take vitamins to boost their immune systems including A, C, D, E and Zinc and spend more time outdoors and in the sunshine.  I suspect that many people will eat less and begin to loose weight to avoid diabetes-2.

Many of these Cases are without symptoms and do not require treatment; these are carriers who need antibody blood tests.

The US Death Rate from all causes is 2 million per year.  The 5% of the US population that accounts for 95% of healthcare spending is 16.5 million. COV19 is adding 80,000 Flu Deaths to the 40,000 Regular A&B Influenza deaths.
