re: Louisiana COVID-19 - July 1, 2020 Update: 60,178 cases - 3,130 deaths - 752,088 tested

So I just posted this chart on FB ... Let's see how many haters I get.

Yes it's looking more and more like we're just catching the majority of infected now, and we are potentially seeing a bit of an increase in spread (%positive creep) but not terribly fast. I think the numbers right now point to an incredible spread in the first round that hit the majority of the most vulnerable already, and a resurgence now may not mean much more than a bad cold for most people, unless immunity is non-existent (unlikely) or short. I really hope we can get more data on immunity soon .. it's astounding how little we know about that yet.

I don't like seeing hospitalizations increase on a personal level but thinking of it as a population metric, our hospitals are still in really good shape.
