I wouldn't place too much significance on one day's data. I've been watching the numbers for weeks, and they can go up and down. I think all we can say for sure is that - overall - the numbers have basically levelled-off nationwide, with a very slight downward tendency.

We just ended what was said to be the two-week bad stretch, so the next week will be interesting. NYC reports early in the day, and their deaths have been going down now for about three days, a good sign. And, no, I'm not criticizing Kristi Noem or her approach.

I gotcha, just wanting to shine a little ray of optimism. Our numbers are low, so trends stand out.

I've seen a lot of the daily ups and downs as you have. In many places, it looks like a linear regression line through the daily cases has a zero slope.

Idaho is definitely looking encouraging, though. It's amazing that growth has stopped in just over a month...

I would agree with you. I work in a hospital ER in NJ. Over the last week the case load appears to be lessening. This isn't over yet but there seems to be a ‘’leveling off. My best case is this will just peter out over the next month.
