Fun with MA COVID-19 Reporting 10-Mar-2022 Greater-Greater Somerville Edition

Just a friendly reminder that I'm using state numbers for total cases in reporting from each week but using a calculation that is a better approximation of the cases we've seen every 2 weeks by taking the totals from the report 2 weeks ago and comparing to the report of the week.  For an explanation of why this is more appropriate, read over my post about it: https://funwithmacovid-19reporting.blogspot.com/2020/10/why-weekly-community-numbers-reported.html

Information closest to the city/town name is the most recent information and spans backward in time, one week's report at a time, so that a comparison can be drawn of how we went from doing ok in the summer of 2020, to doing really badly over the winter, to doing really well in the spring of 2021, and then how we've done since.  We were able to get the spread down to "Low transmission" briefly in many areas while still in phase 3 of our re-opening plan so beating COVID-19 is entirely possible, we just have to try as a wider community to get there.

Number of cities/towns with each designation with my calculation:
  • Blue - 24 (3 more than last week) (Less than 1.5 cases per 100,000 people per day; this is the CDC's "Low Transmission" category)
  • Green - 11 (2 more than last week) (Greater than 1.5 and less than 4 cases per 100,000 people per day; this roughly overlaps with the CDC's "Moderate Transmission" which is 1.5 to 7.1)
  • Yellow - 99 (67 more than last week) (Greater than or equal to 4 and less than 8 cases per 100,000 people per day; note that 7.1 to14.2 is the CDC's range for "Substantial Transmission")
  • Orange - 170 (20 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 8 and less than 16 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red -  34 (26 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 16 and less than 24 cases per 100,000 people per day; note: 14.2 or higher is what the CDC considers "High Transmission" which is their highest category of spread so their highest category starts slightly below Red) 
  • Maroon - 11 (22 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 24 and less than 40 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Purple - 2 (3 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 40 and less than 64 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black - 0 (1 fewer than last week)(Greater than or equal to 64 and less than 100 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black w/Italic Text - 0 (same as than last week)(Greater than or equal to 100 and less than 200 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black w/Underlined Bold Italics - 0 (same as last week) (Greater than or equal to 200 and less than 300 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Bold on Black - 0 (same as  last week) (Greater than or equal to 300 and less than 400 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Bold Italics on black - 0 (same as  last week) (Greater than or equal to 400 and less than 500 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Underlined Bold Italics on black - 0 (same as last week) (Greater than or equal to 500 cases per 100,000 people per day)
Summary: Cambridge continues to climb in spread while Amherst makes great strides in reducing theirs. As a state, we've made it down to only "substantial transmission"

Have a city/town you'd like me to keep track of?  Let me know and I'll get started.

Stay safe. Stay informed.

MA Wastewater Tracking (23-Jan-2024 data)

See that little uptick at the end of each graph? This didn't happen in 2022 but did in 2023. We understood the goal in 2022 (to some degree) but since ... is there some portion of the population who says "covid spread must be down so let's go nuts"? I suspect this is partially colleges reconvening their students on campuses where in 2022 they were still trying to get their students to maintain some precautions and they haven't been since... but I also don't think this is just college campuses.

Fun with MA COVID-19 Reporting 13-Oct-2020 edition

Last week's case count is already higher than any other week going back until May 17... which was the case last week but now we're able to report that again because, even though cases will keep increasing for last week for a couple more days, we're over the total from the previous week by 189, or an average of 27/day. Also... we've now seen 2 straight weeks with every single weekday having more new cases than any single day from May 29 through Sept 23 (and that run of large-case-count weekdays starts on Sep 28... so...) Last week also saw 4 straight days with only 1 day of higher case count going back through May 27... including the immediately preceding week. Testing, with 1 exception, has been above 3.0% for individuals for the last 20 days. For comparison, the same rate was below 2.5%, with the exception of 1 day, from July 5 through September 2.... oh, and 13 of the last 20 days that percentage was 3.5% or higher and 4 of the last 15 were 4.0% or higher.... 2 of the...

Fun with MA COVID-19 Reporting 27-Oct-2020 edition

Well, yesterday we had 2 weekdays under 1000 cases last week, today we have no weekdays under 1050, which means that there is NO day between May 19 and the start of last week that reaches the count of ANY weekday last week. This far exceeds my prediction that the average for the weekdays last week would have had 900+ cases by the close of this week... the average weekday cases was 1,111.6. Thursday of last week now has reached 1343 cases, which brings us back to May 12 looking for a day as bad. The week saw an average of 923 cases per day (Sunday has 327 and Saturday, which is still increasing, saw 581) which means we are no longer looking at the week of May 17 for a week that exceeded and now have to look at May 10. Oh, also, the comparison of the average from last week to the one before? Yeah, we increased by 30 percent! Month over month? We DOUBLED! Hospital usage, ICU usage, and intubation counts are all up too, so no bright spot there. The 3-day average hospital usage from exactly...
