Picking death periods

What I finally settled on as an indicator was the 7-day average death rate, using this data.
Kling looking at the measure of fear.

If we start with 3-day death rates then we are fairly contracted, our items per basker has shrunk while we hide in our homes.  Then we know a bit more and go with 7-day rates.

Time to shop a basket of goods is a reasonable first order estimate.  We cut back our basket until the loss aversion is not perceptible.  Just like those physicists cooling down the hydrogen atom to measure wobble.
