COVID a dozen days into June


Peru is ascending in the Race to the Bottom, and Chile overtook Kuwait sometime in the last 2 days, but still the US holds steady. Still gaining somewhere around 20,000 cases per day, but unable to compete anymore, we hold on to 10th place. Our percentage increases every day, but not as fast as the small countries we compete with. We may be able to overtake Luxembourg in a few days, but I wouldn't place bets on it yet. By the time we catch them, Belarus or Maldives may catch up to US.

Gunnison and Colorado are still doing fine... though I had a visitor today who helped a friend move without a mask 2 weeks ago, and he feels justified in traveling around the country. This is why we can't seem to drop our caseload like all of Europe managed to do. In most metrics, the US instead competes with Belarus and Kuwait and Bahrain.
