Hospitalizations are also rising. There is always a lag between rising new cases and then rising hospitalizations and death. The hospitalizations are already starting to rise and will most likely increase at a fairly dramatic rate shortly. A few weeks after that the death rate will spike. The good news is the death rate most likely not spike as much as in the past waves, as we've gotten better at treating Covid-19, but they will rise quite a bit.
Or we could live in fantasy land where we are turning the corner, and the new Health Plan is due to be announced shortly and the economy is roaring back. Your choice.
