Before looking at this graphic, see if you can guess the top 5 or top 10 cities with the most skyscrapers. The graphic defines skyscrapers as buildings above 150 meters (492 feet or 69 Shaquille O'Neals for our friends from the US).

Scraped data from the plot ... gist.github.com/bbolker/d6a6... Scraping is imperfect because the plot is a fairly crappy JPG (hard to distinguish overlapping points). Dashed line is 156 particles per liter, nominal normal/superspreader cutoff (points fall on either side due to scraping error)

plot of scraped data from Edwards et al 2021. On a logarithmic y scale, regression slopes are very similar. Red points are superspreaders (nominally > 156), black are 'normal' (nominally < 156)
