June 30, 2020 One of the reasons I wanted to develop the Zorgi Score is that it gives me a structured way to discuss all the metrics I consider most important when looking at a locality. Unfortunately, I’ve just figured out how to implement it at the county level, and I still haven’t provided you
Month: June 2020
Zorgi Scores
To everyone who commented on my last update who didn’t get an answer, I apologize. A busy weekend seeing my family for the first time in 4 months prevented me from keeping up with everything. Also, there were some very significant changes in the county reporting system that required a reorganization of the reorganization that
Going to a party this weekend? Take a look at the stats you go!
OK, I said I wouldn’t do an update today, but last night I downloaded the state data and updated the charts. Wow, things look very, very bad. No commentary today, but study the charts and you’ll see what I mean. The only encouraging thing is that death rates have not risen appreciably yet, except in

What’s Race Got To Do With It?
ou probably won’t see a post from me until Sunday evening, so let me get some things out of the way before the main event today. A few people have been asking me for a picture of your OP, so I’ve included one today. This is after Zorgi finished a long update for the day,
Counties in CA
I know cases are skyrocketing in many places around the country. I’ve been wanting to present ALL the data everywhere, but it just doesn’t make sense to do it that way. So I’ve stuck to my plan, which is to reorganize what I’m doing in such a way that it helps make sense to all
Riverside, San Bernardino, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties
First, I want to thank everyone who responded to yesterday’s post with such heart-warming comments. I was really touched! I’m working on a commentary that connects the whole subject of systemic racism with the pandemic. I know that will drive the people who hate my political commentary even crazier, but I think it’s something that

County Update
Sorry I missed an update yesterday; it’s the first day I didn’t post since March 28, and I figured a day off for Father’s Day was a necessary thing. The reorganization of the way I present state data was a success judging from all the terrific comments I got on several subs. So I’m trying
Are things in Arizona as bad as they say?
I’ve made no secret of my disdain for clickbait headlines like “Highest number of cases ever! 37% increase from previous day!” I have two objections. First, they use statistical noise to generate a headline. Second, they oversimplify the real situation in any state. The result is that those who want to claim that cases increased
June 19, 2020
Trying to keep it brief today, as it’s our anniversary today. My wife and I met 46 years ago at a Juneteenth fundraiser for the homeless. Question of the day: Are things getting better? Are they they the same? Or are they getting worse? To answer that, I’ve assembled a hodge-podge of charts and tables.
