If we compare this week's snapshot to last week's we may be able to pull out some trends.
This week we have:
2 days ago: 222/369.1
1 weeks ago: 507/502.7
2 weeks ago: 732/682.9 (from graph)
3 weeks ago: 809/746.6
Last week, we had (from OP):
2 days ago: 51/258.6
2 weeks ago: 797/739.4
So the 2 weeks ago number is decreasing.
But the 2 days ago number has increased.
The 2 weeks ago number wouldn't reflect the relaxing of restrictions much so that makes sense.
The 2 days ago...either it represents many people's worst fears...or we have a sample size that is too small, given the backfilling of data.
Next week should bring a little more clarity.
