It’s pretty interesting to see that the COVID case/death trends by latitude have continued. I suspect some of this could be attributed to a lower population in some latitude bands combined with a focused COVID outbreak, but since this is population-normalized, it probably only applies at the 50 degrees and northwards latitudes…
Equatorial regions still have a significantly lower case and death count. Poorer reporting could be partially involved, but can’t describe this big of a difference. Surprised this isn’t discussed more.
