It kinda did for the first half of the curve.

The problem with terms like exponential growth, is that theyre still used 
though they never came to fruition

  Get infected.  Become contagious.  Infect others.  Show symptoms.  Take a 
turn for the worse.  Go into the hospital.  Transferred to ICU.  Put on 
ventilator.  Linger for a month or more and probably don’t recover.  Die.  
That’s more than 14-18 days.



  So as you turn the dial, the gauge doesn’t tell you if you’re a hero or a bum 
for quite a while.  And if you’ve caused an oops, now you’ve got to deal with 
the exponential growth problem again.  Lag between cause and effect, plus 
exponential growth if you screw up, means be careful and go slow with the dial.



  Remember Mickey Mouse as the Sorcerer’s Apprentice in Fantasia?  It seemed to 
be going so good at first.

  Well the local minima seems to be taking nice orderly steps down each week 
except for a couple weeks back where it stayed about the same.

  But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a phase 1 
win.  Hopefully we are on the road to eradication.  If the local minima steps 
continue on the same trend, it looks like they will hit the bottom in a 
month.... one month to go...   I think I have said that several times over the 
past few months...

  I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look at the 
logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually flattening. However, 
the linear curve is still rising.

  Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect, we will 
know more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the country is "opening 
up" around May 10, so if that negatively impacts the death rate, we won't 
really know about it for 14-18 days.
