This is a summary of the one week change in the virus case stats on the 3 sites I periodically check. I know the data is flawed at this point, but consider it worth watching...

The US was over 13,000 cases and over 200 deaths as of yesterday, so safe to say the CDC data isn't particularly up to date.

I use https://infection2020.com/ to track US cases personally.

The CDC updates once a day at 12:00 ET based on closing numbers from the prior day. I've adjusted it.

The US now has approximately 16,000 cases. Approximately 7,200 in New York alone.

is anyone asking, who has been to New York?

Jamaica's first case was a visitor from New York who infected 5 hospital staff.
