      CDCs new models the agency has been holding, now leaked to @washpost seem to assume half of cases are being diagnosed. That seems excessively high. I suspect case ascertainment is far lower; we have much more spread and are deeper into this epidemic wave than these models predictpic.twitter.com/ZfxuvIpLGb

      Test positivity in some outbreak states is back up to winter 2021 levels. (See Missouri, for example). Some, not yet. But looking elsewhere suggests rapid rise, rapid fall once it burns through. Was about two months in India—though with very low background vaccination rate.

          Exactly. We are 5-8 days away from the peak and then a rapid decline. Same thing we saw in England and India

          Nationally or regionally though? Some areas have very low spread, unsure how that will change come fall.

          India had been burning unusually slowly due to its very low vaccination rates than. The European countries perhaps offer a better reference point.

          I found some medical grade N95s for my husband and myself. He’s severely immune compromised. Unfortunately we live in Missouri.
