Ugh.
Saturdays are normally down from Friday. Since April 11, the Saturday new case number has been lower than the Friday new case number - down between 1919 and 6274 cases on Saturday compared to Friday.
It is lower today . . . just barely. Friday's new case number: 33,539; Satuday's new case number: 33,388. Down, but only by 151 cases. Less than 1/10 of the lowest case drop on Saturday since April 11 (on the upswing of the curve - dot #38 on the graph) That suggests to me that the weekly pattern is about to be swamped by how quickly the cases are going up.
