(A) The Zipf-plots of the normalized probability-rank distributions Inline graphic of the cumulated confirmed number of every infected country at several given date sampled about every two weeks, data provided by the WHO. (B) The Zipf-plots of Inline graphic at several given data sampled about every two weeks, data provided by the CDC. (C) Temporal evolution of the estimated exponent Inline graphic of the normalized distribution Inline graphic. (D) Temporal evolution of the estimated exponent Inline graphic of the normalized distribution Inline graphic of the period after May 15th. (E) The sublinear relation between the number of infected countries Inline graphic and the cumulative number of global confirmed cases Inline graphic, data collected by the WHO. (F) The sublinear relation between the number of infected states Inline graphic and the cumulative number of national confirmed cases Inline graphic, data collected by the CDC. The shaded areas in the figures (C,E,F) corresponds to their different evolution stages, respectively.
