CDC timeline records SARS-CoV-1 as contained by July 5, 2003.
Covid-19 is actually the pandemic’s name, the virus itself is SARS-CoV-2. About 90% the same as the first SARS.
The 2002-2003 SARS was much less contagious with only 8,800 cases, but way more lethal with nearly 9% of cases ending in death.

Have a look at Italy — we were always “2 weeks behind Italy” in the ramp up — we should be two weeks behind in the ramp down. Additionally our peak day was Back in late April (39,000 cases or so), we have not been above 30,000 in quite some time, so it appears that the counters take the weekend off...
But each subsequent peak Is less in quantity than the previous week. Overall the trend is down
Dont you find it interesting that they took OFF the 7 day rolling average — it showed a downward turn...
