Wait...isn’t that exactly what it means?

The Y axis scale is changing as it increases, so the curve is flattening, but the rate is actually increasing. Here's another view, with a non-log y axis, easier to see infelction. 


Which is from "Buzzfeed News" , not my favorite source.... but feel free to do some of your own digging!
Edit: I said "not necessarily" in above post because some with negative inflection in first graph (South Korea) are actually slowing down, while others (All others) are still accelerating.

By "flattening" do you mean becoming straight?  On a log chart I agree that a straight line or even curving would not mean the rate is decreasing.  I thought you meant becoming horizontal (like S. Korea) which would mean the rate is decreasing.  I agree with dleg too that these data are also a function of the rate of testing.  It's tough to get a handle on what's going on, but it definitely helps seeing these charts and maps and data.  Buzzfeed grabbed it from Johns Hopkins which is doing a really amazing job tracking all this.

Edit: Ah, I understand what you mean! Your edit note above helped.

I wonder why they don't plot China on here.

So now WA has limited gatherings to 50 people max and has pretty much shut everything else (restaurants, gyms, hair salons, etc.) down.
 

Honestly this doesn’t feel much different for me, since I’m naturally an introvert...but this still kinda sucks. Seems to me that there’s some borderline unconstitutional stuff going on here.

Well damn, the DNR wants the raccoon for testing.  

Did they want it for taste testing?

I wish I had some extra money to invest right now.

Sounds like you might have guns to sell and the market is hot right now.

I made a post on next door about how to clean and eat squirrel that got removed //content.invisioncic.com/r86644/emoticons/default_sad.png

People are not prepared for hard times - but these squirrels are fat as hell and would go well with all this rice we have.(had for years we never eat)

By "flattening" I meant the downward concavity. For example just looking at US data: it's concave down on first chart. This is a little deceptive, since it appears it's slowing down. It's concave up on second chart, which shows that rate is increasing. (Oops just noticed your edit. Glad I cleared myself up )

Re second part: China is ~4 times higher then the others atm, so maybe that's why. Would be harder to see this data if that was plotted.

give um a few weeks, and they'll ask you to post it again.

It's hard to tell, but are we looking at a three day doubling period outside of ROK?

This is something I’ve heard getting tossed around for the US outbreak, but the lack of testing is making it fairly difficult to confirm.

Day 1 of working from home. Now I can do work in my underwear.

Though, I'm not sure what stopped me from wearing underwear to work in the first place.

Tom Brady is done in New England, maybe this Coronavirus ain't all bad!
