One question I have is why do the deaths per day continue to be so much higher in NJ and NY if they are doing so well

For instance on 7 day ave - NY is 17, NJ is 20, mass is 16

In comparison, VA is 10 and MD is 10.

Even adjusting populations / lags that doesn’t make sense if those states have been doing well now for month(s)   [/quote]

I don't know about deaths, because yes those can lag weeks or even a month or more.

A better measure is rate of hospitalization, per million people.

New York:   32 hospitalized per million (downward trend)

Maine:  8 hospitalized per million (downward trend)

Maine consistently has great metrics.   New Jersey is looking a little bit bad in comparison with NY and they might be headed to a color change from green to yellow.[/quote]
