This past week, we see a lot of new detected cases in Georgia. Part of this increase could be due to younger people getting infected (20% of detected cases are 18-29 year olds), and part of it is due to more asymptomatic people getting tested; no reliable data I can find on percent of asymptomatic testing over time. – However, testing alone doesn’t explain the increase in cases, as we see 13% increase in testing but 59.4% increase in cases. – Deaths have trended down week over week. – It’s important to note that COVID-19 Hospitalizations have started to trend up after a period of a downward trend. But, the rate of hospitalizations (hospitalized/detected cases) have gone down to 14%, compared to 17% at the end of May.
