          The color-scheme is a co-perpetrator in the crime. These terrible charts seems to have taken over people's ability to think about what's actually happening. https://twitter.com/cankyiv/status/1271430187150966784 …

          Replying to @zeynep

          Ok, the X axis isn't what I want in those... it's an accounting of why you would use a single day snapshot? Like a 3 or 5 day rolling average for the peak and the current would seem prudent; it's not possible to look at that many charts and not realize it's naturally lumpy data

          It's something, isn't it? Alaska is blaring red because it has 18 cases per day, while states hovering around a thousand are mellow yellow.
