Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - July 13+
Thanks for the note AppleBlossom. And I will look for the link.
But the state/regional information is important to have. Might I suggest that the new cases for that day be highlighted in red, but that the previous cases for that week be in green (or whatever color). That would give us the recent activity in that state with a quick glance. I have been trying to do it mentally, but it is challenging to scan the dates and then mentally highlight.
Am I correct in saying that many states are now reporting only once a week? The media reports come in anytime. The highlighting for the week might allow us to get a quick idea of the deaths in that state for that week. (and thanks again for all your hard work)

Rainbow Lake, thanks for the nice comments
I have been highlighting the cases that are new (to me) each day the details list goes up. So the red highlighting would include new cases posted that day, plus cases posted the previous day after 5 PM. To get an idea of new cases per week you would have to scroll back and check the old lists too.
Several FluTrackers members are currently working on a database of info on global fatalities, which allows sorting and searching so that the data can be organized and viewed in many different ways. At this time we have 290 of our current 353 fatalities in the U.S. listed on the database, and I expect the rest of the info will be up shortly. There is a chart which shows U.S. deaths organized by report date, with a red trend line showing how the overall deaths are increasing or decreasing each day, which may answer your questions on risk and increasing virulence.
I am waiting for the "all clear" from our database organizer to make the link available to the public, but as soon as I can I will post the link to the U.S. info in this thread to give everyone access to what we are doing. it ought to be an excellent resource in addition to the info posted here on the forum.
