What's this?

About time, the trend's been pretty noticeable for a couple weeks now.

It kinda looks like everyone just decided to have a covid party for the holidays and just deal with it, maybe - maybe - everyone who's going to get it, got it or not. Odd that a couple sources are putting confidence into this 3X (5X in an Atlantic article) undetected exposure response now.

Someone's going to have to more clearly define "herd immunity" but I could see a bend in the curve is here.
