I went to Worldometer and looked up Fla.
Aug 22 through the 28th. The average was 77.7 per day. Divide that by 24 and you get 3.23 per hour.
I went there, too, but didn't see the 77.7 deaths per day. I know you cannot cut and paste pictures on here, but please give a link to where you saw this. Thanks.
I don't know anything about this Worldmeter, or how it gets its information.
But I did find this here;
Florida COVID-19 Coronavirus update by county with statistics and graphs: total and new cases, deaths per day, current active cases, recoveries, historical data, trends, projections, and timeline.
www.worldometers.info
Now, when I put my cursor over the last line on the right, under "Daily Death" a tiny window pops up with an orange diamond shape. I played around with it, putting both 3-day moving averages and 7-day averages on at the bottom, and for week ending Aug. 28, it shows a moving average of 152. But if you use the 3-day moving average for the same period, it is much higher.
If you set the graph only do the 7-day moving average, and put the cursor to the far right, you will see that the moving 7-day average varies for the week in question. I am not sure how the Miami Herald came up with its numbers, but maybe it took each 7-day average for that one week and averaged those. I don't know, but both of us may be misreading it. That cursor is darned hard to use for this, too--no wonder it is called a "cursor", because that is what I felt like doing, trying to manipulate the blasted thing....
But is this what you used?
But I put the cursor at the bottom of the line on the far right, and the death rate is dropping, thank the Good Lord. Maybe it is due to more monoclonal antibody treatments being used and made more available, as it does show some efficacy against the disease, in some studies.
Someone who is an expert in reading statistics and graphs needs to decipher this for us. Seems to me someone--Inertia or whateverman?--claimed on here to have some expertise in mathematics.
