Currently, IDPH is reporting a total of 123,830 cases, including 5,621 deaths, in 101 counties in Illinois. The age of cases ranges from younger than one to older than 100 years. Within the past 24 hours, laboratories have reported 24,471 specimens for a total of 959,175. The preliminary seven-day statewide positivity for cases as a percent of total test from May 27–June 2 is 6%.
*All data are provisional and will change. In order to rapidly report COVID-19 information to the public, data are being reported in real-time. Information is constantly being entered into an electronic system and the number of cases and deaths can change as additional information is gathered. Information for a death previously reported has changed, therefore, today’s numbers have been adjusted.

I looked at the full data set at IDPH. The data shows that the peak for new cases occurred during the period 4/28 to 5/4 and the peak for deaths occurred from 5/7 to 5/13. This uses a 7-day average to eliminate the effect of weekend reporting on daily totals.
Both numbers have trended down since their peaks, with daily fluctuations within statistical expectations. The nine day difference between peaks is consistent with deaths lagging cases. Noting the lag period between exposure, cases and deaths is important when assessing the impact of the move to phase 3 and mass gatherings that might create additional exposure.

Fortunately, we have not heard of any critical shortages of beds/facilities in several weeks, save for that isolated case in Montgomery, AL. If we can keep it plateaued around 20,000 new cases a day and 1,000 deaths and keep on a national decline, the US will have achieved the goal of flattening, but with a pretty long tail. The next few weeks will be interesting to see if cases and deaths spike.

So at what point will we see the “I don’t care…it’s Memorial Day weekend” bump in cases?

McLean County reported two new cases bringing up their total to 223 confirmed cases. Also the county health department reported that Heritage Health in Normal has their first positive case. I imagine that all residents and staff will be tested.

I wonder how much the temporary closure of the National-Guard-staffed testing sites, and other disruptions in testing, have perturbed these results.

With what happened over the past weekend will we see an uptick of cases?
- Huh? - Wednesday, Jun 3, 20 @ 11:22 pm:
“will we see an uptick of cases?”
With in next 2 weeks or so, watch for the uptick in cases wherever there were protest marches and riots.
The question will be, can Illinois revert to Step 2 without whole scale ignoring of the EO and stay at home orders?
