The raw number of cases is spiking dramatically. The number of deaths is a flat line. The number of cases is expected to rapidly decline within a relatively short time.
The number of deaths is not a flat line, but is rising much less dramatically than the number of cases. As a proportion of cases, it seems to be flat in comparison.
Thank God.
The threat to our health care systems remains, however, as even people who don’t die have to be taken care of. Several states are in severe trouble. This is what people need to focus on.
Even if they never get covid, they could be denied prompt treatment of something else because of the overload.
