Can you clarify your numbers? "100 cases per thousand" Is that over the last 9 months, or some sort of ongoing average?
The US, at > 150K new cases a day, is at (per CDC) 43 new cases per day per 100,000.
At 10.8M cases, that's 32 cases per thousand over the last 9 months across the US. Of course, for any community, all of those may be 6 months old or just 1 week old. Surely they aren't using old data to judge current infection rates.
California purple level starts at 7 daily new cases per 100,000 population. The average across California is currently 18.3.
