Amercia just gave a update to new cases.... +13,957 new confirmed cases.
The US is now at 38,164 confirmed.

Good thing some states have started a lock down now, otherwise the weeks too come would be mad numbers.

Just a side note, the reporting has changed (cut off time I'm guessing) which put 2700 cases that were previously listed with the day before in with today.

Mar 18 2848
Mar 19 4530
Mar 20 5594
Mar 21 4824 + 2656 = 7480
Mar 22 13958 - 2656 = 11302

So still following an aggressive 1.4 avg daily growth rate, even 1.5 for today after adjustments. We're probably not seeing the effects of any measure yet, but we are seeing the full effects currently of serious testing having gotten up to speed. Playing catch up with the actual numbers. The actual growth rate should be a lot lower, although spring break won't be helping things. The effects of that are still to come.
