There definitely *are* success stories, foremost among them New York, Louisiana and Michigan. But in the average US state, it's not clear whether we're currently getting R<1. — PolitiTweet.org

I *am* trying to account for testing volume here, which is a lot of work. If you look at the estimated share of positive tests, it's still increasing in many places, or at least it was as of a few days ago. https://t.co/zIntxFJGXO — PolitiTweet.org

Also, some of the success stories have factors that aren't easily replicated elsewhere. If ~20-25% of the NYC population had COVID-19, then herd immunity will knock down R somewhat, but that's not how you'd want to knock down R. Hot weather may have helped in Louisiana. — PolitiTweet.org
