In case anyone's still following, here are the numbers:
Avg cases per day, rolling 7 days: 10,300
Avg cases per day, rolling 14 days: 10,740
Avg deaths per day, rolling 7 days: 133
Avg deaths per day, rolling 14 days: 123
Case counts are down from their highs, but so is overall testing. Positivity rate for first time testers is hovering at just under 20%. Average age of new cases has been in the low 40's for the last 2 weeks. Deaths are at record levels for both 7 and 14 day averages, and the numbers are expected to continue rising for at least the next couple of weeks. **Hospitalizations were the way to measure things, but many hospital systems have moved into damage control mode. Tele-medicine has been set up for many Covid patients to avoid hospitalizations, ICUs have been kept as clear as possible for the most serious cases, with low-level ICU-level care being given in non-ICU areas. IMO, this is actually a very good thing, because it shows that the medical establishment has adapted to keep treatment as effective and efficient as possible. It just means that certain metrics we were using to try to gauge the severity of the situation just aren't as reliable (current hospitalizations, ICU capacity).
**My hospital info is second-hand and third-hand, plus some internet research, so it may not be 100% accurate. If frontline workers could confirm/deny or just give more accurate info, that would be helpful.
