Updated charts for **Italy** with lock down data 2020-03-05

**Notes:**

- The Hubei data is smoothed (new feature which is documented in [README.md](https://github.com/janvda/node-red-corona-comparison-hubei/blob/master/README.md))

**Observations:**

1. The Hubei factor has increased a little bit from 6.186 (22 March - 6 days ago) to 6.259 (20,000 deaths)
2. It must be noted that in terms of curve fitting (chart `"total deaths (limited to 7 days in future)"`) a `"lock down date"` of 2020-03-07 (2 days later) gives a slightly better fit and would give a hubei factor of 8.064 (25,000 deaths)
3. The new confirmed cases for Italy will go rapidly down from 31 March (or maybe 2 days later) onwards if it is following the Hubei curve.
4. The number of deaths for Italy will go rapidly down from 7th April (or maybe 2 days later) onwards if it is following the Hubei curve.
