>More seriously, there appears to be an implicit premise / supposition / conjecture/ assumption amongst the many that the effect (infectious-ness, lethality) would decrease w/ each evolution of the virus.> The strain from Europe that hit Italy and then NY city seemed to have been more lethal (or fast spreading) than which hit China and US west coast. Now they are saying The East Coast one is more fast spreading (but fortunately similar lethal) and is now more prevalent than the West Coast strain throughout the US. So the difference between low initial deaths on the West Coast vs East Coast may the less spread as a precentage of population. But now that the East Coast strain has become dominant the percentage spread rate throughout the US is increasing faster till it reaches a critical level (as indicated by about 100 deaths per million) and then the infection rate explodes. -Arun
