I extend the daily cases averages over four iterations to show that they have been essentially flat: Cases were 151,441 Aug. 18-24, 150,625, August 17-23, 149,675 Aug. 16-22, and 150,138 Aug. 15-21. That is good news as hospitalizations follow cases and deaths hospitalizations. The data, numerically and graphically represented, covers ten days and one can see a a slightly rising plateau forming, a structure we have never seen created by the data since Delta's dawn in the U.S. on July 9.
