If you look at the Georgia mobility numbers from Apple/Google, people have not meaningfully increased their distance traveled since the restrictions were lifted.  That's good overall, but it will fuel the naysayers who will claim that restrictions never helped in the first place.  The goalposts keep moving in the realm of public discussion (or is it public dunking?), but at least lives are not being put on the line as could have happened.

Here's a couple of dozen state rankings and where Georgia falls (California figures in parentheses):

#40 (#19) in diabetes
#38 (#17) in cardiovascular deaths
#37 (#10) in physical inactivity
#30 (#5) in obesity
#41 (#28) in primary care physicians

Only #12 #23) in excessive drinking.  Good news at last.
