Today, the United States reported 69,917 cases of the novel coronavirus, down from 71,027 a week ago (Covid Tracking Project). This continues the downturn we've been seeing recently.
I like the downturn. But so far it's been a fairly small downturn, so we've got to see how things turn out. A relative of mine -- I won't name him as I'm not sure whether he'd like me broadcasting this with his name on it -- has recently been hospitalized with the virus.
The US reported 1291 deaths today, up from 1039 a week ago.
The usual graphs are attached.
