Today’s data on COVID in our nation is very concerning.
Houston, we have a problem.
Looking at 7 day averages,
Cases rising in 43 states
% of tests + going up in 39 states
Hospitalizations? up in 29 states
Deaths? Up in 28 states
But not all states are the same

A picture is worth a thousand words. Want to understand the impact of price increases on heath care spending *after* we account for inflation? The answer: 75% See below 👇👇
