If covid-19 can be fought with inoculation then aren't we much closer to developing a proper vaccine, which is a much safer approach to treating the population ? This is what happened with smallpox (over a longer time frame).
Write or message your local county public health department to include a history of the number of new cases per day not just the current total on their covid-19 website. Growth rate is just as important as the current state.
I've been following the daily numbers from California, Washington state, and New York, on covid2019.app, which were extremely informative, but they stopped reporting by state as of two days ago. Anyone know of a good source for daily state level new case data?
Summary: CA, WA, and NY had all reached 100 reported daily new cases by 3/14. Up to 3/19, neither CA, nor WA had broken through 200 new cases, but on 3/18, NY reported 1709 new cases, and on 3/19 they had 1069. The state level data is not available at the moment (when the site was working better, it said state level would be available), and even the regional data is broken in the current download.
