    In the new format from last week, the cases and deaths gradients are now the last week's total divided by the previous week's total (previously, two six-day periods were compared).
    The present root product (shown in bold) is the same as before (i.e. the square root of the product of the cases and deaths gradients) with the same interpretation (>1='exponential' zone). The previous seven root products are shown alongside.

    UK stays below 1, showing reducd daily cases and deaths gradients - but those not falling very fast, though the UK govt now easing the lockdown parameters in E+W.
    The main worries in terms of high deaths combined with exponential growth continue to be Brazil (5500 deaths since last week) and Mexico. All the European countries highlighted last time due to root products that unexpectedly rose, saw their root products fall again (or at least, I saw them fall ). Peru and Chile still showing exponential growth.
