Just got off the phone with a rep from DISH who said it is currently 107 F in Texas! He asked about where I was and I said it was a pleasant 65 F but should reach the 80s today.
Missouri is testing 10,000 citizens a week. I think testing is creating the spike more than political theories on who's misbehavior is to blame.

I can't see why anyone would want the free tests they offer now here unless you are at risk with your job or behavior and want to make sure it is OK to take care of older people in your family. Thus the infection rate should still skew high.

What matters to me is the death rate... we had another day of no deaths and I think we're averaging less than one now by this chart.

Do I want to take more risk now and start attending pot-luck BBQs outside or watch a play inside with a mask on? Hell no!

Remember Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) was ground zero for COVID-19 in the US. We did well shutting down quickly so it will be interesting to see if hospitalizations surge in the week ahead after the larger protests.
