11. I don't know where these specific numbers are coming from...

...but there's a disclaimer on the CDC's website about any figures released over the weekend -- that they're to be regarded as preliminary until the official, revised count is released Monday at 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time.

5. Don't get your hopes up...

We had the protesters, we have premature "openings", we see people flocking to beaches and other venues.

None of that bodes well all things considered. That is, the more you read about the virus, confirmed cases, deaths and number of tests, the worse it looks.

Let's just hope that the second wave, (which really shouldn't be until Fall even) does not bring the huge spike that some predict. I mean, many times the highest number we have seen so far.

6. Good point. nt

12. A few days ago, based on my analysis of the numbers...

...it seemed possible that we had reached the crest in ongoing cases, and that the number was starting to trend downward.

Since then, we've had several higher days in a row. I don't have all the official numbers to crunch yet, but I can't help thinking that the "FREEEEEEEEDUMB!!!" resistance, plus the moves in red states to ease restrictions, are starting to show a new rise. Not the "second wave," as far as I can tell, just an intensification of the first wave based on general idiocy among some.

13. Thanks.

Yes. We can only speculate.

I think we will see more data and results in a couple of weeks or so.

7. Johns Hopkins is showing the USA at nearly 55,000 dead right now

If this is a trend, it sucks royally.

RIP to all our people that have died. We will avenge you on November 3.

8. The numbers would have started going down eventually

But with these states opening back up early they will continue to rise.
