The death rate is lower now in part because deaths are a lagging indicator, in part because the infected population is younger now, in part because treatment protocols have improved, but also in part because we are formally recording a larger share of non-hospital cases. — PolitiTweet.org

"Cases are only rising because testing has expanded" is clearly false (and at this point the denial has thankfully stopped). But it probably is true that todays "record high" is a testing illusion and we were simply missing a huge number of cases at the NYC peak. — PolitiTweet.org

Very few of the New Yorkers I know who got sick with Covid symptoms ever got a positive test, because they were young and even when quite ill didn't need to go to the hospital and things were so slammed they didn't bother. — PolitiTweet.org
