How long you gonna be suckers? It's getting pathetic.
Nationally, New Cases are down 7/8ths from the peak in mid-January, and new hospitalizations are down over half.
We are getting to what I consider an interesting point in the downward trend in new cases. Will it taper out into a longer tail (perhaps a bit deeper penetration into the population by BA.2), or will it continue downward, almost flickering out?
I am hoping to see it drop another tenfold from here, over the next month or two.

Every other wave in Colorado has tailed out like a bell curve as it ended. That’s what this one is doing. This wave was so steep coming down that cases would have hit zero about 10 days ago if the curve hadn’t started tailing out.
It’s completely unpredictable to me, the timing of variant appearance is unknown, and whether we will continue to catch this thing over and over is murky.
