    On one of the links from that page found this bit interesting, are the deaths decreasing or are the confirmed cases increasing that quick that is pushing the death rate down.

    Growth Factor of Novel Coronavirus Daily Deaths

    Growth factor is the factor by which a quantity multiplies itself over time. The formula used isevery day's new deaths/new deaths on the previous day. For example, a quantity growing by 7% every period (in this case daily) has a growth factor of 1.07.

    A growth factorabove 1 indicates an increase, whereas onebetween 0 and 1 it is a sign of decline, with the quantity eventually becoming zero.

    A growth factor below 1 (orabove 1 but trending downward) is a positive sign, whereas agrowth factor constantly above 1 is the sign of exponential growth.
