Good Morning, Mission! Welcome to Virus Village, your daily Covid-19 data dump.

Scroll down for today’s Covid numbers.

HiGeorge, a data visualization startup, developed some new visualizations for Mission Local, which we will be using and fine-tuning in the days to come. 

As of October 8, DPH reported 1637 total cases in the Mission, or 27.4 cases per 1000 residents.

The seven-day average number of SF daily cases for the week ending October 4 dropped to 34, or 3.9 cases per 100,000 residents.

The model we use estimates the current San Francisco R number at .76

A week ago, the seven day Citywide average positivity rate was .96 percent.

For the week ending October 9, the rate of weekly change in Covid positive patient fell by 36 percent. For that week, the SF hospitals maintained a seven-day average of 38 percent of ICU beds and 24 percent of Acute Care beds available.

Mark Rabine has lived in the Mission for over 40 years. "What a long strange trip it's been." He has maintained our Covid tracker through most of the pandemic, taking some breaks with his search for the Mission's best fried-chicken sandwich and now its best noodles. When the Warriors make the playoffs, he writes up his take on the games.
