The State Of The 'Third Covid-19 Wave' In Europe

Zero Hedge: The State Of The 'Third Wave' In Europe 

While the growth of COVID-19 infections is slowing down in some European countries, others are experiencing an increase in case numbers as they head into their third wave of infections. 

As Statista's Katharina Buchholz notes, between the fall's second wave and the 2021's third wave, the trajectory of infection numbers became less clear, as countries were battling virus mutations while lockdown fatigue set in for citizens and politicians alike. 

According to numbers by Johns Hopkins University published on Our World in Data, the UK and Spain experienced their third waves early on in the year and in short succession with the fall's second waves.

No surprise for France...after a huge government propaganda against the "British vaccine" (UK is the hereditary enemy) it found itself prisoner of its words. Bunch of morons!

3rd wave? Really? France looks more lie a simmering fire flaring up again. Like opening and losing a damper, Closing the damper long enough you not only kill the fire, but everything else.

What struck me is the graph is from Statista and not a 'news' organization. For the last year or two I have thought that news organizations will be or should be replaced by informatics companies. News organizations have some good graphics at time, but they generally require a herculean effort, are highly partisan and are enough to be haphazard. News is more often anecdotal and when you do get statistics it is partial stats.

Partial stats are a problem. Would Trading Economics be any good, if one month they only gave GDP and another month they only gave spending. They would give one, but not the other except on special occasions?

News is so slanted that todays news organizations would give Yellow Journalists of yore a bad name.
