[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The virus does care about your politics - to the extent if you have an incompetent Republican governor more interested in pleasing Trump than sound government, your death rates are going to go up up up up up[/quote]

Yep. They're starting to go up now. It's easy to track the deaths on Worldometers. Since the deaths are reported in weekly cycles, compare day 1 of this cycle to day 1 of previous cycles, to see if we're improving or not. We had been improving, but this is the first cycle in quite a while where we've gone backwards.

We're on day 7 of this cycle. Compared to the last one:

Day 1: 285 last time; 265 this time

Day 2: 366; 262

Day 3: 727; 378

Day 4: 676; 993

Day 5: 687; 890

Day 6: 626; 960

So as you can see, the increases started in the middle of this cycle. If you overlay a 7-day moving average onto the graph, you can see how we're reversing a steady decline that had been happening since late April. It's pretty much all due to Texas, Florida, and Arizona, although California and New Jersey are starting to see worrying increases.
