I hate to be the one to mention this but if it is growing at a rate of 4.4 million cases a week then it isn’t growing exponentially.

Since they told you years ago that you don't need no education they figured they could sneak this one  by you. 

Besides, they're doctors, not mathematicians, dammit!

People using the term "growing exponentially" at this point are doing it to get people to wake up or to sensationalize or they don't know what it means.

Even India's case totals - which are now the world's highest - are growing at approximately a straight-line rate, not exponentially unless you include the exponent of 1.
