Just saw a headline flash by: "Mourning in America." Spelling correct, rather pointed, and tragic. And HORRIFYING. This ain't no reality show. This is plain ol' harsh REALITY - kicking us in the teeth.

I went back and looked - the worldwide number are problematic this morning. Both confirmed cases and death stats are off. So I'm gonna delete the worldwide data until things look normalized.

At 6:02am
Confirmed cases US - 1,167,241
Deaths - 68,076

At 7:02pm
Confirmed cases US - 1,168,063
Deaths US - 68,100

At 10:02am
Confirmed cases US - 1,170,620
Deaths US - 68,365


At 10:34am
Confirmed cases US - 1,170,795
Deaths US - 68,386


At 11:02am
Confirmed cases US - 1,174,373
Deaths US - 68,481

At 11:05am
Confirmed cases US – 1,174,934
Deaths US – 68,533


Since I'm still seeing inconsistencies I'm gonna stick to the US numbers. The worldwide numbers aren't tracking logically. Kinda hard to believe there are X-amount of deaths one hour and then fewer deaths an hour or so later!
