They moved on from cases to percentages weeks ago here.
Always shift to percentages when the raw numbers aren't scary.
Rates are fun that way, too.
F'r instance, in North Dakota the rate of COVID cases per 100,000 in some counties exceeds the number of cases, wildly.
In Adams county, ND, (population 2,216) the rate (cases per 100,000) is 21,796, almost ten times the population. (And more impressive than the population.) According to the stats, about 1/4 of the people in the county have had COVID, and of those 483 cases, 472 recovered, two are active, and 9 are deceased. Now, that was just the county at the top of the list, chosen because it was at the top, and for no other reason, and demographics are not considered in these numbers.
But, overall, I am hoping people are coming to their senses and breaking free of the panic pOrn, and looking around.
If you had the bug, and lived, you should be good to go, provided you aren't suffering any lingering aftereffects.
