tomorrow will be the first of many daily 9/11s :amerikkka-clap:

can someone please make c/Ovid so I can doompost about shit like this without bumming out everyone on the site? I gotta get it out or I'll make everyone miserable irl

Edit: Another site that I use that has seemed more reliable over time reported 752k not 1.689M, so honestly I'm not sure what to think, I've never seen these two sources disagree so drastically idk what to say about it

the one from the main post

the one this comment is referencing

Edit 2: I figured out what the deal was, the bing site is 3 days behind, the 1.689M figure was its data for january 9th, even though its labled as "over the past 24 hours"

Fuck you bing holy shit get it together

        My hot take is that the bing one is better, it's using better-informed estimates. I think the other one is being conservative about the latest numbers and will send up bumping them up as suspected cases become confirmed.

          I think I figured it out, I think the bing one is delayed in reporting, the number from yesterday is shown in the graph below as the number for jan 9th :U
