I didn’t have time this week for a full write-up of Framingham Covid numbers, but for anyone who wants to see the data, my app has been updated:

Quick summary: Numbers were very good this week: 6.5 per 100K population with a test positivity of just 1.4%. And while number of PCR tests (the ones reported to the state) are also dropping, the fact that the positivity is so low is encouraging.
If you’re looking for some weekly reading to try to make sense of the current situation overall, I highly recommend a Twitter thread by Bob Wachter, chair of the University of California - San Francisco Dept. of Medicine. You don’t need a Twitter account to scroll through the thread:
