First time: 100k+ COVID Cases Today

Published by Christopher Schwarz on

Today the US had over 103k COVID cases – the first time over 100k. You can see we are at an all time high for cases.

This is not just more testing. Hospitalizations and Deaths are now climbing. In March, only really sick people were tested so cases, hospitalizations, and deaths were almost at the same time.

Now tests lead hospitalizations and those lead to deaths. Thus hospitalizations and deaths will continue to rise.

Again, this will slow the recovery, especially in the hardest hit sectors as states implement new restrictions.
