CovidActNow takes a while to load new data--still waiting for yesterday's data.

NY, RI (30+) and NJ still doing badly. NJ has actually had case numbers climb for a while, up to 40+ new cases/day/100K. And it's clearly showing an up tick in hospitalizations now.
MI almost got to 10 new cases/day/100K, but has since shot up to 23+, and hospitalizations are going up there too.
Even MN, were cases have gone up slowly is showing a small trend up in hospitalizations.
Looks like TX may have bottomed out at 16, and cases are trending up now.
On the bright side, MO dipped back below 10, and AR dropped below 10 to join HI, PR, WA, OR, CA, NM, WY, WI, KS.

  I disagree. New York had a steady downward trek for awhile. Stupid take.

    Also your point about Minnesota was wrong. It cases bumped slightly and flattened out since. Try and be truthful. outside Michigan, nobody is going through a notable increase including Texas which has been flat for a month(and its weather related bump is long over).
    
    Your annoying alarmist moronic posting shows self-hatred. Enough boy.

  Thanks for the update. It looks like many states where case counts were dropping rapidly over the past couple months are now on a plateau at best for the past week.

    Which makes sense for seasonality. Come back by mid-May and you will get next wave down.
