| JRPGfan said: +55,442 cases yesterday in the US. Deaths in the US went up to ~1,000 too (+993 yesterday). |
There is some adjustment from July 4th in there. The US was 'missing' about 260 over the weekend which were likely now included in Tuesday's reporting.
The last 7 days, USA reported 3,855 deaths.
The 7 days before that, USA reported 4,027 deaths.
The 7 days before that, USA reported 4,341 deaths.
The decline went from 92.8% week over week to 95.7% week over week. While it's not rising yet, the decline is slowing down to disappearing.
It's much lower now than at the peak since the spread of the virus has shifted to the younger population while those most at risk hide. However at some point it will jump over with that many infected people walking around. Hospitals have also gotten better at keeping people alive, although coming out the hospital with a $1 million bill, ravaged lungs and potential brain damage, not much of a victory there.
There is of course the matter of excess deaths as well. I can't find any recent counts on that, none of the studies go beyond the start of June, so any new missing deaths from the recent uprise in cases remain hidden for now. The CDC site stops at June 13 but notes that only 60% of deaths are reported to them within 10 days and completeness varies by jurisdiction.
The growth in cases slowed down a bit as well, it was about 120% week over week before July 4th drove it down further to 111% week over week. It's going back up now.
Are people responding to the recent resurgence, mobility changes for 4 states:
Not really any change yet. People taking Friday off and preparing for July 4th is clearly visible, but no real change in trends for the recent rise in cases.
