        The Ga DPH changed the way it shows data, the Governor has always said “favorable” data (without explanation) helped him, and oh, most of the restaurants and salons are closed in my NE Georgia town.

        It’s not these numbers Kemp is making the decision on, it’s the unemployment claims numbers

        When you look at the increasing number of tests and the % of them that are positive, they’re likely seeing a slight dip in new cases per day. They’re just detecting more of them.

        This graph shows what I mean... It's a screenshot from the DPH website that I grabbed this morning. As you can see, the “14-day window" is nicely demarcated by a vertical line, and our cases have been trending nicely downward. (5/n) pic.twitter.com/Ne5NPk7J0R
