Curve is clearly flattening - Updated: still looking good

This is the most useful data to follow. Too difficult to determine the significance of “new infections“ because testing is still so sporadic. Hospitalizations, however, are as reliable a marker of how many are getting infected as we are liable to get.
UPDATE:
Still flattening out nicely

Agree.
But CNN keeps running with a pure case based model

or could we be reaching a limit on who we can hospitalize?

This will not be taken well by the Karen boys.

Based on this graph, you would have made that assumption on March 30th too. Need more data.

How can you idiots downvote data collected by your snowflake liberal government?

It is clearly working. In a couple weeks, we will be ready to start slowly opening back up.
Without universal testing and the ability to quarantine hotspots, it will flare up again. What concerns me is more months of intermittent lockdowns. That is unsustainable.

Curve was flattening at the end of March too.
It's almost like a couple of days is a useless sample size.

I am optimistic we are at the peak, as well.

On the weekends the curve seemingly slows. Then starts increasing m-f

Something becomes a trend after the third time it happens. Not trying to say its not curving, i sure as hell hope it is, but I would wait to after two more days to see how the numbers look before saying it is flattening,

New cases per day is on a steady increase. I dont see how rates of hospitalization indicate anything... Cases increasing means more chance of hospitalization increasing.

I don’t know how anyone can argue the quarantine isn’t working or that the flattening of the curve would have happened naturally if we hadn’t done anything at all.
I don't think anyone is arguing the quarantine wouldn't have an effect on the curve. The argument is...was such a quarantine necessary? Based on the numbers...I'd say not.

Clearly no because we have an empty convention center.

it does look promising. but i think Monday and Tuesday's numbers will tell the true tale...
