Take a closer look at the Wisconsin numbers here:

What do you notice? That 100% of the increase is from the age group 18-24. Every other age group is dropping, and has been since mid-July.

What is unique about the age group 18-24? Could it be they have just started college, and were required to get a test to attend?

Without the 18-24 year olds, the plot would have continued down the trajectory it already was.

Good eyeball on that one.

Without everyone, we’d be at zero.

The only thing I can see is that they’re getting tested as a condition of their attendance.

Hospitalizations and deaths steeply down nationwide. Missouri is up, but doesn't publish an age breakdown, at least not easy to find. I'm concerned they will add flu, corona-colds and the kitchen sink as true disease rates drop.
