>Daily deaths are decreasing while daily new cases are increasing.
But, as I originally stated, there are a lot more tests being done now, and that could explain why the number of confirmed cases is increasing. Some weeks ago they only tested those requiring hospitalization, and as time went on now anyone can get a test.
It would be nice if there were weekly samples of 20k people to serve as a valid week-to-week measure of the population infection rate.
The places where the new cases are skyrocketing are having more tests done, obviously, but they are places where the number of tests (and cases and deaths) up until now was low.
Conversely, the places that were hardest hit in the first wave are also having more tests done than previously, and at least before full reopening, are not yet having cases jump up.
