The decrease in deaths is a good thing obviously but I'm concerned


that it's a lagging measure when compared to cases. In other words, you wouldn't necessarily expect to see an increase in deaths at the same time you see an increase in cases. People don't just get the virus and die immediately (like ebola for example). An increase in cases is obviously worrisome because that means there's more potential spread and/or deaths. Deaths, hospitalizations, cases are all part of the equation. An increase in any of those is not really "good" news.
