that it was not 233 people in Italy who died on one day, and another 366 the next day, that's all. It seemed unclear to me from the subject line of the OP, and not everybody's going to click on the link to drill down to the fact that the 366 is indeed a cumulative figure.

Your post above (the one I'm responding to) is certainly more clear.
