So you have no interest in trying to see the rate of increase in the 2? You'd rather just stick with apples to oranges that grossly mislead over the situation?
As you continually update the two tallies with new rates, this will be captured by the cv19 bar increasing until it is at a greater height than the other bar (if that is what future data indicates). You can compare snapshots of the side by side comparisons calculated as well.
Fair enough but this thing is far more lethal the the standard flu. So why are we comparing them? I mean, why aren't we seeing the death rates compared to the average seasonal flu?

Everyone wants their own narratives. These numbers are so spotty no one can make comparisons even if they try.
