One question we might ask from this is whether US-style social distancing is truly enough to get R<1 on its own, or instead it needs some "help" from herd immunity, warm weather, or — in some of these low-population states —geographic isolation + contact-tracing. — PolitiTweet.org

Generally the states doing better either: 1) are quite isolated (e.g. HI) 2) had very bad outbreaks already (e.g. MI), or 3) are in the Deep South, which may (?) reflect hotter weather If a state doesn't fall into one of those categories it may not be making much progress. — PolitiTweet.org

Or there may be a lot of places where R is <1 among the general population, but R>>1 for critical workers and among other populations. A lot of the bad outbreaks recently are in places like prisons and meat-packing plants, not the general population. — PolitiTweet.org
