122 new cases today in Santa Clara County, a real bummer. That's about 500% from a week ago (around 20). Hospitalizations plus 5.


I think the public has to learn that the end of lockdown does not mean the end of social distancing.

If we knew that was the source of the increase, that would be something we could act on. However, we don't know this, we are guessing. The other thing that we can't explain is why New York and New Jersey peaked and then dropped way down and the bay area counties did not. Something is going on that we don't understand, and we are not getting any closer to understanding it, AFAIK.

Until the surge yesterday and today, CA was running at about the same level or lower than NY after their drop, on a per capita basis. For example, if you adjust the new cases in NY two days ago, it amounts to 3,904 in CA. CA had 3,589 that day. The big jump in the last two days in CA is very troubling. But things are peaches and cream in NY either. They are just now starting to open up. I wouldn't be surprised if they take off again.
