next thing is hospitalization. Yes, numbers are going up, hospitals are admitting more moderate cases than before, now instead of sending someone home they have treatment options. It’s a lot easier to admit someone, provide them with some of the off label drugs then release... hence why average hospitalization is under 5 days when it used to be 15 days++. They are treating more moderate cases and not just severe.

last thing is deaths. The 7 day moving average has been trending down for months dropping below 1k a day on June 3, now its under 600. Infact the average has been consistently dropping as more states open. There had been no spike in deaths with states open for over 2 months. The average person dies with in 30 days of showing symptoms. If the reopening was causing deaths they would of been evident in the beginning of june, but they have still been dropping
