time looking at the numbers surrounding it.

I have been tracking the number of COVID cases across the country, which is going down.

But there are a number of states that have been hit so hard we are frightened enough that everyone is toeing the line with distancing and masking (till the protests.)

So I am also tracking the national number with NY, NJ, CT, and IL taken out of the total. THAT trend line is definitely steadily rising. So those 4 states are coming down and the rest of the country is going up.

Now the beach openings and the Ozark imbeciles and the protests are going to change all that. But going into that spike, things are already not doing well.

Versus Michigan. I had predicted Texas would pass us last week in cases. They ran off and hid. I see Florida has passed us also. It's too bad Desantis isn't telling Florida the truth.

Today we hit 1,419 new cases, the highest ever, after a big jump yesterday of 1,317. But sure, open up the bars and the stores!
