worldometers.info website seems hacked

They post the daily corona cases.

10 minutes ago US posted 12000 new cases, now it says 7800. Someone messing around. WHO is also being attacked as i heard. Looks like someone is running their agenda, whatever that may be.

Just like presidental elections

edit: just now it hit 13900 cases

That’s new daily cases. That’s one hell of a jump.

Looking at numbers. I think New York is on track to make Italy look good.

it's on track w/doubling every 2 days. I imagine we're finally testing in serious numbers

More testing = more cases. Many countries are just ramping up testing so we are obviously going to see more cases.

Just follow the body count. Deaths only, not compared to cases or population.

Everyone on this site loves a chart/graph. Chart the deaths

You are right about more testing equals more cases. However, body count is misleading. You have italy, the oldest population in europe and you have germany which has a very low death rate.
So, its difficult to compare.

It’s clear that ciesta countries like italy and spain (maybe France) will get the most heat.

Someone messing with US numbers again, now its 8100, just moments ago it was 14500

I've been looking at worldometers for the past week. The US numbers were increasing about 35-40% each day. Today is a shocking jump of well over 50% and the day isn't over.

I was actually expecting a slowdown in the US numbers, not because the virus is slowing down, but because of the limited supply of testing equipment. NY is already limiting tests to the really sick.

Due to the limited testing resources, I did not think we could sustain a 35-40% daily growth rate as there isn't enough equipment to test such high numbers of people.
