Hey, the memorial day spike in cases is here right on schedule.
All those gatherings on Memorial Day Weekend gave us an additional 34 cases … seems awful low to be a ‘spike’ from Memorial Day. Based on my neighborhood alone and your statement, I would have expected 34 in my neighborhood, but Pleasant Hill only increased by 2.
The 7-day average is 23.1 new cases per day and 768.9 tests per day. 3.00% of the tests came back as positive for COVID-19.
27 cases out of 964 tests resulting in a 2.80% positive rate is hardly a spike.
Look at yesterday’s new cases: 7. You gotta look at rolling averages, not any single day number, to see if there is a pattern.
@parent I agree the magnitude is small, but keep in mind “all those gatherings” were under current social distancing guidelines – among groups largely isolated from other groups and the general public. It is a different scenario when there is more interaction between different groups. My point isn’t the magnitude of the observable spike but in its predictability. The models work, the covid-19 virus is real, and taking a cautious approach to reopening is warranted as we reopen.
@Led You do have to look at averages if you are identifying a trend/pattern. However, I am not pointing to a trend but to an impulse response effect caused by what can be considered a point (a single weekend) slightly convoluted (in the math sense) by variable delays. For this you look at the deviation from the average, which today is clearly an observable effect.
Xennial, yeah, but I’m still skeptical: seems more likely that reporting was delayed a bit from 9ne day to another.
Tell us more…would this be like the “spike” scare-mongering Karens were hyperventilating about with the Memorial Day parties at Lake of the Ozarks? You people truly are comic relief at this point.
@Xennial – If you are concerned about deviations from the average then why not look into the previous day which had just three new cases? That was a huge deviation from the average. Of course, it may not fit into whatever narrative you are trying to spin.
If you looked at the longer term trends you would also see that the testing numbers jump quite a bit from day to day. The county has never explained the one day spikes. My guess they are from the county identifying groups that need to be tested.
The county does not include a 7-day rolling average of the number of tests per day in their COVID-19 dashboards which is why I have that on the charts I upload to https://imgur.com/a/RSQK6hP from time to time. The number of tests is dropping but active cases continues to remain up. However, a large component of the county’s “active cases” number is a 14-day rolling sum of the number of new COVID-19 cases per day. When there is a surge in testing that creates a surge in new cases discovered and it will take 14 days for that surge to fully disappear from the “active cases” number. This is also why you should be looking at trends rather than one day deviations.
There were about 1000 more tests than yesterday also
Looks to me like a reporting lag: only seven cases one day and 34 the next? I doubt it.
Yes. Lift the stupid shelter in place. This is ridiculous and so over reaching
38 deaths and entire economy destroyed because the globalist criminal lost.
Most deaths are not from Covid, they are from cancer, heart disease, etc.
“My mother died of a cold. My father died of the flu”
said no one ever.
They died of the serious disease and were too frail to handle the inconveniences of life any longer.
And this is why in 16 days I am outta this state.
You have destroyed it liberals.
Kim sad isn’t it This state was once a nice place to live in Even the weather sucks now!
@ Kim I’m jealous
What state are you moving to?
We;re sure gonna miss you…
Can’t wait to see the numbers after all these protests!!!!
Non-Health Department has totally botched this folks. I want a breakdown on the so called ‘Corona related’ deaths. Was it the cause or the last straw as pneumonia often is ?
I’d like to understand more about the 4 active events underway in Skilled Nursing Facilities. The County is now publishing data about this high risk area.
VERY important to note that those 38 deaths are classified as coronavirus RELATED deaths. When San Diego County corrected their report of 94 coronavirus related deaths tomshow the true number of deaths from the coronavirus, the deaths totalled only six. Huge difference. Manipulating numbers to appear tremendously larger than they really are is fraud.
Open the county!

Do you have a link to this study/article? I would like to read it as the concept support what I have said for awhile now. It would be nice to see data on it.
as of 06/04:
1,547 confirmed cases (CCC) with 38 deaths = 2.46% death rate.
The following question has been posed on a number of mediums and seems appropriate during these times of riots and pandemic. Are humans inherently double standard hypocrites?
The Double Standard is clearly the MO of the times. It is found in corporations, PTA, garden clubs, the local social club, anywhere and everywhere we exist, whether we are the law-abiding human or the knuckle dragging human impersonators.
What a relief to have figured this out. 💪
