Effective Reproduction Number (Rt)

Rt appears to have been on the rise in the past 2 weeks, to a level of around 1.0.

Projected Incidence

An increase in daily case counts is likely in the coming two weeks.  Continued masking and social distancing will be critical to preventing large increases.

Asymptomatic to Symptomatic Ratio

The ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases appears to have been on the rise in the past 2 weeks.  A low ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic cases facilitates mitigation efforts since symptomatic individuals usually isolate.
