It's going down no matter how you figure it. Not the end of one thing and the beginning of another. Google Flu Trends was right in general concept. At the moment the only ones going up are France and Russia, with Russia perhaps peaking, and almost double the normal seasonal flu, a higher percent than any other country. We should be hearing stories from Russia.

How long is the incubation period for this virus and when was the quarantine ended in Ukraine? Are we seeing a true peak or is it still lower from the schools and many public places being closed? Hopefully it's the first and it's truly peaking.
