Also getting your hand at good data isn't so easy nowadays. E.g. reporting date can be very different from actual date of death. My area once lagged 3 months.

Interesting to read about a peak at the start of November. Some regions of Germany where data for "date of death" is available also show a peak slightly before 1.Nov.

Some regions seem to have a constant lag for reporting. For others the curves using "reporting date" seem to be completely detached from the "date of death" data.
