In Reply to: The young and invulnerable interact with the old and vulnerable... posted by Steve O on June 30, 2020 at 09:25:53:
In places like LA, and California as a whole, the daily rate of new cases has continued to rise throughout the whole pandemic. But daily deaths peaked in late April and has been flat or slowly declining ever since.
Nationally, the daily death rate has been climbing for the last month, but a lot more slowly than the new case rate.
If we can detect and trace new cases rapidly enough, we can minimize spreading it to the old and vulnerable. That's a big IF though. I've been hearing that younger people are less likely to go get tested and less likely to respond to contact tracers.
I wouldn't rule out another major deadly epidemic ala New York, because people keep proving their ignorance and selfishness. But right now, I don't see that in the data.
