2) Why a chart of *growth rates*? Everyone's interested in 'bending the curve.' You can guess it by eyeballing it on a chat of cases. But a chart of rate of growth = just a direct measure of whether the curve is flat or steep — PolitiTweet.org

1) Why metropolitan areas, not states/countries? It's the natural extent of both rapid community spread and health resources. Saying NYC > Italy per capita isn't a great comparison; huge parts of Italy unaffected, NYC still better than Lombardy, which is what 'Italy' evokes — PolitiTweet.org

3) Why growth rate at a certain prevalence, rather than time? This might take more than one tweet. Time is the natural one, I get it. But with growth, the question is not *when* rapid growth happens, but whether growth is happening on a base of large N — PolitiTweet.org
