The COVID-19 pandemic

[tomh009]

I guess we’ll see 2000 per day before the new restrictions show any effect.  (If they show any effect ...)

Maybe. There are signs that the sharp increases are dampening. The increase in the active caseload averaged 2.7% per day in the past week, as compared to 3.5% the week before. Today's 1,588 cases is a new record, but it's only seven cases more than the count a week ago. And both the positivity rate and the new cases as % of actives are edging down.

Let's see what kind of data next week brings.
