OTHER GOOD NEWS: Deaths for the day returned to 2K level after yesterday's anomaly due to an apparent reclassification of several thousand.
THE BAD NEWS: Back up to 35K new cases
While I totally support the President's decision to reawaken our moribund economy, the stats are NOT screaming "Over the top!"

Seems like someone was saving some unannounced deaths for the time when the actual numbers are starting to go down. Sort of like keeping GHWB's corpse on ice until they needed a state funeral as a distraction.
“THE BAD NEWS: Back up to 35K new cases “
Is that from increased testing?
gee that must be why they aren’t opening the entire country at once and instead phasing it in based on locations surveyed on a local level not just looking at national numbers skewed by large populations like New York.
But thanks for your opinion freeyore...

Thank you for continuing to post this. Since testing should be increasing, the new case count will likely be increasing, assuming ithe data is correct.
What I’ve started watching in my state is hospitalization and ICU counts. Those should be pretty accurate, and if those are going down, I see it as progress.
JMHO
oops another hiccup
