Half an hour before the cut-off point by GMT, we had:
The day before, 1165 deaths.
Today, 1182 deaths.
A DGR of 1.01.
A DGR of 1.0 marks the inflection point, or mid-point of the curve, at which point the daily totals start to drop.
It's safer to use two consecutive 5-day averages, to weed out intervening factors and sheer fluke.
And of course we do know that this may be coming from a regional inflection point, the dwindling of the NY-NJ epicenter, but other epicenters such as Lousiana and Florida may flare up and push the numbers up again.
But I certainly prefer to see 1.01 than 1.65 like on March 31st. Fingers crossed.
