I'm annoyed that the nytimes changed how it displays county level covid data
#1
I want the simple risk categories. I wonder why they got rid of them.

I can still make sense of the raw numbers but its not as satisfying. The test positivity percentage is still too high....but I'm not sure it will ever come down. I think we're moving toward testing when you think you have it rather than a precautionary measure. We have had a nice long decline of cases. I guess a decline in the decline rate is expected as covid countermeasures are related.

Oh shoot! they got rid of the per capita infection numbers! I guess I could calculate it myself but they should do it in their damn county level dashboard. absolute numbers don't mean a damn thing. Update - its in the map.

It'll be interesting to see where numbers are in a month. Just saying that feels like progress. I wonder how low the numbers will go. Or will there be a spoiler variant? Of course, just because its controlled here doesn't mean it isn't spreading like wildfire elsewhere in the world.
