Maybe you're looking at the wrong time, SoundgardenRocks: the media focuses on what is spiking today, and the spike in deaths will probably not arrive for another week or so.
It is depressingly predictable:
Reports about parties and bars: two weeks later, reports about surges in cases. In two weeks time, I'd expect reports about surges in deaths - unless by that time Trump is able to declare that there have been no deaths because "coronavirus cases are 99% harmless".
In fact that's probably why the Trump admin is moving now to censor the statistics about CV: they know that very soon the actual death count will be so high that the GOP will have problems pushing the lie that "America is in a good place."
