True but pretty much all media called it the Wuhan Coronavirus or some variation early on.

Need a better name than SARS-CoV-2 for the virus. That doesn't roll off the tongue. Maybe they can do it like hurricanes (and winter storms now).

Yeah, it's to late now to get people to use another name.

Yes
After the pandemic ends on US before end of 2021, no more surges anymore, COVID-19 will be less deadly and no longer a threat anymore.

So what? EVERYONE is entitled to their religion. The fact that one religion (or one individual) is "okay with restrictions" does not obligate very other religion to be okay with restrictions.

No one's entitled to risk the health of others because of their own religion.

Keep in mind that almost everyone who would have otherwise gone to church while it was restricted would still have come into contact with others at some point - at which point they further the risk of spreading the virus. That's why congregating was restricted. But let's not pretend that, like, PRAYER was restricted. Everyone was still free to practice their religion on their own.

Wow, what state(s) caused the uptick? the only states I follow (Ohio, Florida) had good days, but not that big of a jump.

"On Saturday, the U.S. reported a huge number of vaccinations: 4.6 million, more than 50% higher than any previous daily report.

There’s always a reason to look at big increases or decreases with caution, and today is no different.

Usually, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pulls their numbers from state data at 6 a.m. (Remember, vaccinations are logged under this methodology when they are reported, not when they happen.)

Today, the CDC pulled the data much later in the day, according to the agency. That’s a small methodological change that means a big (seeming) increase in doses. But it essentially robs doses from Sunday’s report, presuming CDC goes back to its normal data pull and reporting schedule.

If it had pulled the data at the normal time, today’s reported doses would have been 2.98 million, according to the agency. That’s still a big number -- a record, in fact -- but it’s no 4.6 million.

Look for Sunday’s total to be lower than usual as a result.

In the meantime, the moving 7-day average remains the best measure to watch, since it helps smooth these types of changes. And that average, it’s worth noting, keeps going up."

Thanks, @DCBaker , I follow the tracker, but didn't know there was an associated blog. Good to have the explanation.

3M is still a huge number. If we did a little over 3M a day we’d hit 100M doses administered a month.
