Merrick Garland Is Confirmed as Attorney General

Man, I'll tell ya, President Biden has done a helluva job in 49 days. Which we might as well use to segue into the COVID report.

14-day changes

-14% Cases

-33% Hospitalizations

-20% Deaths

That's good. Deaths down 20% is good.

7-day daily averages

58,764 Cases. (through March 9). Don’t know if up or down because of "data anomaly” March 8.

46,063 Hospitalizations (through March 8). Down. Yesterday, the Times  did not have any data for March 8.

1,663 Deaths (through  March 9). Up. There's always Deaths to spoil the party, isn't there? Swine Deaths.

2,168,688  Vaccinations (through March 10). March 8, March 9,  March 10–this data is messy to work with. Up (good).

Daily numbers

55,832 Cases (March 9).

-Hospitalizations. "No data reported” again. That's weird because now the Times does have the number for March 8.

1,885 Deaths ( March 9)  Up. Man, that is high. It was 815 March 8. Up over 1,000 in one day. Nah man, that's just not credible. This is Wednesday, yesterday was Tuesday, both are full  reporting days. There's still some gremlins in the data.

2,082,692 Vaccinations (March 10).  Up. Good.
