More evidence of what a slow surge we're seeing in the US. The CDC uses data from emergency department visits to estimate the time-varying reproductive number, Rt. Although it estimates that #COVID19 infections are growing or likely growing in 26 states and not changing in 19 states, it is the Rt estimate that is interesting.
