Update: December 15, 2020 In an effort to reach a broader audience, I've been providing regular covid-19 updates on a Facebook Page that I've created. Until further notice those updates are posted to the Facebook Page here: Owensboro: Managing Covid-19 ____________________________________________ Update June 10, 2020 My last presentation of local coronavirus data included the addition of the moving average measure.

So I wonder, is that 50% that "make it" is it less of the teens right out of high school? Interesting.
