Post #1510, COVID, now 26/100K

Posted on May 13, 2022

 

Now 26 new cases per 100K population per day, up 28% in the past week.   The BA.2.12.1 wave now looks well-organized in every region except the Mountain states, where Colorado still does not show a strong upward trend.

Data source for this and other graphs of new case counts:  Calculated from The New York Times. (2021). Coronavirus (Covid-19) Data in the United States. Retrieved 5/13/2022, from https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data.”  The NY Times U.S. tracking page may be found at https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/coronavirus-us-cases.html

At this point, new cases are rising almost everywhere.  There were only five states where new cases did not increase in the past seven days.
