I would not call myself an optimist about the US's COVID position in any meaningful sense. But do think people are perhaps slightly discounting how doing more tests (a good thing!!) can make the numbers look worse/stagnant when there may be *some* improvement. — PolitiTweet.org

@conorsen @MattZeitlin I think there's a difference between targeting R~=1 and deliberately keeping R>1 to in a plan to reach herd immunity. Also think there's a difference between a *planned* Sweden and an *unplanned* Sweden (the unplanned version likely a lot worse). — PolitiTweet.org
