COVID-19 BIDEN+625 (Oct. 7)

Haven't done one of these in a month of Sundays. We are getting much healthier. All metrics across all three categories are down. Cases are -26% over the last two weeks, their lowest raw number, 40,186, since mid-April; the 7-day daily average has fallen nearly uninterrupted since July 13.


 

 

 Hospitalizations are -11% over two weeks and have declined every day since July 30; the 7-day average is the lowest since May 29 and stands at 26,994 on Oct. 7.


 

And Deaths are -11 over two to 380/day over 7 days, the low since July 13. The 7-day daily average has fallen each day since Sept. 15. Deaths are stubborn, they've been a squiggly horizontal line since about May 7.

We are still a fur piece from our all-time lows, for Deaths that was on July 11, 2021, 222;  H's, 14,856, April 14, 2022, and Cases 11,179 June 21, 2021, but everything is headed in the right direction.
