Following a brief rise, Rt has fallen over the last 2 weeks.

Projected Incidence

Daily case counts are expected to decline in the coming 2 weeks.  Continued masking and social distancing will be critical to preventing large increases.

Asymptomatic to Symptomatic Ratio

Following a brief spike, the ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases appears to have been falling over the past 2 weeks.  A low ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases facilitates mitigation efforts since symptomatic individuals usually isolate.
