Effective Reproduction Number (Rt)
The most recent data suggests an Rt rising above 1.0 in mid January, but returning to levels below 1.0 for the remainder of the month.
Projected Incidence
Daily incidence appears likely to remain near current levels in the coming two weeks, though the potential for climbing incidence is possible. Continued masking and social distancing will be critical to preventing this increase.
Asymptomatic to Symptomatic Ratio
The ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases appears to have remained largely stable at a relatively low level over the last 6 weeks. A low ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases facilitates mitigation efforts since symptomatic individuals usually isolate.
