This site updated because in their own words on the site

July 9 - Color Scale Will Be Updated
Unfortunately when a map becomes all "red", it becomes less useful. We will be making an update shortly that will adjust our color scale and how each state is graded. The shift will put more weight on "new cases per million" and "positivity". It will continue to include ILI, ICU availability, and testing throughput. It will deemphasize case growth.

As a data scientist who works with a team of folks who does visualization, it told the wrong story using a simple stoplight visualization focused on cases so glad they are fixing it.

Maryland is yellow.   The key metrics are declining - positivity rates, hospitalizations, ICUs, and deaths.  Same with MoCo.   That doesn't mean throw caution to the wind, but let's be intellectually honest.

That's great.  I really liked that site, but it just stopped being useful when everything was red all the time![/quote]
