I agree with that. The models all seem to show a bell curve that tapers off as fast as it rose. While NY might look that way alone, there are a lot of other cities and states at various places in their own curve, along with different policies to fit their own politics, economies, and pain thresholds. It took us 13 days to get from 300 deaths/day to 2,000. It’s going to take a lot longer than that to get back down. It could take a while to drop below 1K/day.
In our county, the cases doubled in a week but Gov. Abbott is opening thing up. Wish he’d waited until after the Easter cases. Wish we had tests. The county health official has publicly stated the are many, many more untested cases.
Woo hoo, nail salons will be opened ‘cause getting your nails done by someone other than your six year old is soooo essential. Here, they never shut down.
