The US numbers are following the European numbers with about a 3 week lag. Deaths and Daily cases are beginning to trend down  as they did in Europe.

Globally cases have remained steady as Russia, Brazil and others have exploded offsetting European and now US declines.


It’s a slow process with global deaths crossing 300000.

I have read that some of the inland states have not flattened the peak yet, and they are in upward trajectories. The worst-hit places like New York and New Jersey so far are on downward curves. Next few weeks will confirm, as the lockdown is removed.

However, I was referring more about operation warp-drive, which is having the cure "just after" the next election. How convenient. (Vote for me as I will have the cure a few days after the election. If you vote for DP then there will be no cure).

This thread is about Operating Warp Speed  - which is to get a cure for the Coronavirus (Just a few days after the election). 
However, he is an example showing States increasing. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8320445/Kentucky-Minnesota-COVID-19-cases-surge-50.html

  • New cases of COVID-19 are down 11 percent across the US in the last week 
  • Hotspots, however, are emerging in some southern and western states
  • Currently, there are 1.4 million infection in the United States and more than 85,000 deaths 
  • Nineteen of the states with at least 5,000 reported cases of COVID-19 are seeing infections rise, a Reuters analysis shows 
  • Kentucky had the largest surge in new cases in the nation with a 60% rise in the first week of May 
  • Minnesota had the second-highest increase in new cases, up over 50%
  • With nearly all 50 states beginning to allow some businesses to reopen and residents to move more freely, only 14 states have met the federal government's guidelines for lifting measures
