The decline appears to be leveling out... but the 7-day rolling average is still on the decline

It is spiking in certain states and cities that haven't experienced it earlier in the pandemic. Most doctors expect that trend to continue as well as more hospitalizations.

I check out all the countries and it doesn't look good. When I look at the bar graphs my heart skips a beat.

I saw a photo of long line of cars in Texas, I think, waiting to be tested.

Some doctors/scientists are saying the real numbers are 10 times higher.

I know that of a friend has to get tested before she has a colonoscopy so maybe a lot of places make you get tested and you don't have a choice. People who have been in contact with someone who tested positive also must get tested. If you go into certain airports and you have a fever you get tested on the spot. It isn't nearly as many as should be though.
