Largest numbers of Active Cases and Deaths, Normalized by Population – Non-USA

Not much has changed in a few weeks in the chart above. Italy and Spain continue to have large numbers of active cases but Switzerland has less than 1/10 of the total deaths as Spain and Italy (1/3 of the deaths of those two when normalized by population). UK has a growing number of deaths, but when normalized, the UK numbers are in the Switzerland camp, not the Italy camp.

Iceland continues to recover. Their cumulative flow diagram below shows that they’re managing to maintain a consistent number of active cases with still extremely low numbers of hospitalizations and deaths.

Russia is also experiencing rapid growth in cases. Lots of concern being expressed by Boris Yeltsin. Very different from the articles from a few weeks ago when Russia was apparently able to keep their growing case numbers under wraps. See the exponential case growth in the chart below.
