Day-over-day cases are down, but yesterday covers three days of case/test reporting; today's 2,040 cases are substantially higher than the 1,687 cases/day resulting from averaging yesterday's count over three days. Hospitalizations are down compared to yesterday, as are the seven-day averages for deaths and hospitalizations; the seven-day averages for cases and percent-positive, unfortunately, are up.
