Covid-2019 - 2021-01-20

Thursday, January 21, 2021
Summary:
4,409 -- a new high for daily US fatalities. Of all the flawed measures, deaths are the most accurate, but they lag. More forward-looking, 31 states are now in 2-week downtrends for new cases, and 45 for the case-positivity ratio. With 5% of the population now vaccinated with at least one shot, the "dark winter" can't last much longer.
