Last Friday's projection: 744,221 total cases, 26,521 daily cases, 29,485 total deaths
We came under total cases last week. We came in over total deaths - mostly because NY decided to change the way they report deaths and retroactively reported a few thousand. These account for about 20% of all deaths and the single-day jump is obvious on the charts above.
I had my doubt last Monday, but we were definitely in a slow decline last week. I think are are bottoming out the transmission rate as far as it will go. (The last time I posted this we cut the transmission rate in half, again).
Friday's projection: 965,731 total cases, 25,731 daily cases, 48,935 total deaths by the new reporting method (40,590 total deaths is charted above).
