THE ASSCLOWN AWARD

This chart is interesting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a4k3_RMNT8

Ignore the other countries, just focus on the US

January to March 2020 = Spike

April 2020 = drop
 
May and June 2020 = Spike

July and August 2020 = Drop

September to November in 2020 = HUGE SPIKE (WHY?)

December 2020 to February 2021 = DRAMATIC DROP

March 2021 = Spike

April and May 2021 = Drop

What could account for these?

I know in some months people were locking down.  The vaccine rollout also can affect these numbers

Cases is a data point that has use, but it's only part of the story.  Cases depends on testing and often, self-reporting.

Theoretically, if you never tested for COVID again, you'd have 0 cases.  If you increase testing to fight COVID, the irony is that by fighting cases, you'd have more cases.

You wouldn't really, but it's what the data would suggest.
