Time for a C19 hotspot update. In no particular order let's look at:

* NYC
* London
* Manaus
* Stockholm

and Bruxelles. 1/
NYC: Hospitalizations and deaths. 2/
London: Hospitalizations and deaths in hospital. 3/
Manaus: Hospitalizations and deaths 4/
Stockholm: General hospitalizations (green), ICU (y) and deaths (r).

Note: Although there is a known lag in reported deaths in Sweden, this is an average of reported deaths (7 day rolling deadline). ICUs seem to have a bottle neck currently. 5/
Bruxelles: Hospitalizations and Deaths.

Note: As we learnt, there was a high number of suspected deaths classified as c19 without positive test in the Spring. So, less immunity and larger second wave as originally expected. 6/
Summary: Still some signs of endemicity in hardly hit cities, but different degrees of immunity (that reflect to some degree known seroprevalence studies, which were highest in Manaus and NYC). Bruxelles lowest collective immunity, Stockholm somewhat in between.
