Epidemic curves organised by reporting date and specimen date, CEBM (published 21st September 2020)

We compare two ways to draw epidemic curves using current Spanish and England COVID-19 case data and show that one supports the idea of a continued growth in cases, the other shows initial rapid growth followed by a flattening of the curve. We consider the lack of clarity on the date of onset of symptoms in the data used in today ' s briefing hinders meaningful interpretation.
