Fun with COVID-19 reporting in MA (and elsewhere)

 Each number is the outcome of taking this week's data, subtracting the data from 2 weeks ago, and dividing by 14 (to get the per day) and then dividing by the population of the location (to get the per person) and then multiplying by 100,000 (to get the per 100,000 people per day) Information closest to the city/town name is the most recent information and spans backward in time so that a comparison can be made not just to the worst spread or the last few weeks' but going back to last summer.... Aka, it's a reminder that as good as things look in comparison to January, we're not back to where we were yet.   Blue  - Less than 1.5 cases per 100,000 people per day  (this is approximately the " Low transmission " from the CDC) Green  - Greater than or equal to 1.5 and less than 4 cases per 100,000 people per day (included in " Moderate transmission " spread from the CDC) Yellow   - Greater than or equal to 4 and less than 8 cases per 100,000 people per
