the Corona Virus, June 7, 2021

 There are currently 33,785,967 reported case in the US and 606,161 deaths.

As the numbers continue to come down I've decided to simplify these posts. Hopefully they soon will be no longer be necessary. First I'm going to eliminate the five highest states every time and reduce it to this year only and I'm going to stop reporting dashboard new cases for Bergen County as they don't seem to be updating that consistently. I'm also going to dro0p the percentage increase numbers and positive test numbers as they don't mean much anymore.
