[QUOTE="donner, post: 3390235, member: 277"] Speaking from what i know about mississippi, our state testing volume is down from mid march, yet infections are up. More tests is not simply exposing more positives because we aren't doing more tests. And i agree, people seem to forget there was never a promise of 'stopping' this. However many of the trends seem to show that we aren't keeping the curve flat. Yesterday our gov. reported that our state's five biggest hospitals are now out of ICU beds. And New Zealand seems to be an example of where flattening the curve has lead to stopping the spread in an effective manner. As as been said before, infections don't stop on a dime (unless we go back to serious efforts to stay at home), so if we want to prevent overloading the health system we have to take steps now.
