COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

I've been thinking Orleans would be averaging zero new cases per day by May 1. Didn't quite get there - I think we've averaged about 30 new cases per day this week. Seems to have flattened out.

I still think we hit all the marks for phased reopening but LaToya's not listening to me.

I think we have hit the Phase I mark but to be fair, LaToya can't do anything until the Governor lifts the state wide order.

That being said, we went up to 48 cases today and Jefferson had 108 cases. The state as a whole had a 2.3% increase according to Jeff Asher. If that trend continues, none of us are going to get the loosening of restrictions that we want. Hopefully it's just a blip, but I just can't help but thinking that it's going to be a trend because people refuse to do simply things like social distancing and wearing masks.
