re: Daily COVID Updated as of 11/2/20 8:00 PM

A little higher than the last few days today, but still didn't surpass the highest level days so the flattening continues.

California had a backlog of 14k tests to run so they likely got a large batch completed. I'll check those numbers when they are reported.

Most states have more testing available then they do tests. In some areas they can't get testing done fast enough (large metro areas). In time those large metro areas will catch up to testing as they send speciements to more labs and more ingredents come avaialble to do the testing becomes available.

Still a good day.

I would be converened if we were hitting the 40k mark but we are not even close to that.

The average for the past 4 days is lower in its growth than it was the prior 4 days.

It's possible we never see a drop below 20k until millions more get tested considering more than half of the people who test postive for COVID19 never develop symptoms.

The important state for future deaths is the ICU numbers and those are on the declines. We don't have have a national emergency anymore for ventilators.
