  1. Thanks so much for tracking the San Francisco information and putting it into graphs. It’s a great community service and hopefully is persuading people to take precautions whenever possible.

  2. Could you help me understand, the text says that the 7 day average case rate is still climbing, but the graph above it shows the line for the 7 day average case rate going sharply down. Clearly I don’t know how to read the graph, could you explain? Sorry to be dense.
