"It's like driving a car 100mph down a freeway trying to control it by looking in the rear view mirror," says @Kevin on #COVID19 data. "That's part of why we built the site--we wanted to give people an insight into how the stats are actually developing with a reliable algorithm."

State detail pages give you a closer look into what's actually going on. Take Arizona, for instance: rt.live/us/AZ You can see that reopening lines up almost exactly with a pivot in implied infections
