and highest it's been since September 25, reversing nearly 2 1/2 months of progress.

Cases are increasing in 39 states, flat in 2, and down in 9 (7 day average vs. 7 day average 14 days before)

Incidentally all of the southern states are increasing. All of them.

(no paywall no quota. The "Last 90 days" button above the graph is extremely helpful. The map is not to be missed)

The world is on fire too -- up 50% since the October 14 low.
