Similarly, you might assume that a country that appears 'lower' than other countries on that chart is doing fine. That's not necessarily true, either, if they're experiencing rapid growth after initial slow growth. — PolitiTweet.org

Think about the chart that everyone shows, of cases over time, starting at x cases. On that chart, your eyes are drawn to the country that's highest. You might assume they're worst. But that's not true, if they've since slowed the growth in cases. — PolitiTweet.org

This chart--growth over prevalence--fixes this common misinterpretation. On this chart, the metro that's highest at a given value of x is the one that's doing the worst job of "flattening the curve" at a comparable stage of its outbreak. So it's visually intuitive — PolitiTweet.org
