The Atlantic stopped their COVID-19 reports for the US yesterday. I am going to follow Florida each day because it might give a "best case" scenario for what is going on. If anything, the Florida numbers are probably an undercount. Unfortunately this pandemic has become political so I believe each state has its own spin on their numbers, depending on a lot of factors. States that want US federal funds might spin their numbers spin worse and states like Florida who are dependent on tourism might interpret the numbers in the most favorable manner possible. You be the judge. I can start the daily totals after the numbers are reported later today by subtracting from the cumulative totals.
