Very brief "where we stand" in a few areas...

2 weeks ago, the 7-day avg cases per day was 3317
1 week ago, the 7-day avg cases per day was 3818
Today, the 7-day avg cases per day was 4707

That's up 42% compare to 2 weeks ago.

But up in whom?

1/
% increase compare to 2 weeks ago, by age
(from smallest to largest increase)

9%: 18-24
42%: 65-79
44%: 14-17
46%: 11-13
47%: 80+
49%: 25-49
51%: 50-64
61%: 5-10
83%: 0-4

Biggest increases in those 10 and younger.

2/
Testing is also increasing, but at a slower rate, exemplified by the increasing case positivity is as well (LEFT).

I'm cautious with focusing too much on daily data, but we've now had 4 days in a row with positivity AMONG THOSE 0-17 that has exceeded 10% (RIGHT)

3/
And as just pointed out by @FLCovid, hospitalizations reported by AHCA are now up above 2,500 .

Although DHHS has not released their data today, they have already reported >3,600 current inpatient hosps for patients with suspected/confirmed COVID.

I'll leave you with a positive.

It appears as though the massive lag in death reporting has been improved substantially. Whether we're through "the backlog", have a different process, etc, I don't know, but the results are better.
