Covid-2019 - 2020-07-31

Date: 
Saturday, August 1, 2020
Summary: 

Other than Arizona, new cases fall in all the sunbelt hotspot states. But Florida now tops New York for cumulative cases as a share of population (Arizona is in first place). Now 9 US states are in declining two-week case trajectories (Monday it was just 2). Meanwhile, the modelers in Washington up their US death forecast by 11,000 with a glitchy-looking kink higher in October -- and not so much as a word of explanation.
