On a weekly basis: Deaths for the week.

Weekly deaths decreasing. That's very hopeful. The Chinese infection rate is dropping too. But if China isn't reporting their military Sars deaths, that'll make a difference, but not much [there aren't many of the population in the military].

It looks like a victory is in prospect. Singapore showed how to stop it dead, literally. Vietnam too. There's no need for defeatism or fatalism.

I'd like to see infection rates for other infectious diseases. Where people are defending themselves against sars, they'll also defend against other diseases = collateral damage of an excellent type.
