From the horrible Bloomberg piece: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-07-07/a-lower-covid-19-death-rate-is-nothing-to-celebrate



It's like they think we can't even read. Take a second and actually look at the graphs. In the first wave, cases reached their peak on April 10. Deaths then peaked on April 17- seven days later. Not two weeks. Not four weeks. Not eight weeks. SEVEN DAYS.

The "second wave" of rising cases started on June 13. Therefore, we would expect deaths to start rising in a similar proportion seven days later, on June 20. What were deaths doing on June 20? Trending down, at their lowest level since the spike, continuing to do so for another five days before a slight blip up (something weird with the statistics must have been going on there), which quickly corrected and then the downward trend continued.

This article, warning us that "deaths lag cases" was published on July 7 - a full 24 days away from when cases started skyrocketing. Deaths are still trending down.
