It appears as though a vaccine has been approved for use in the U.S. beginning as early as Monday. With luck the roll out marks the beginning of the end of this pandemic.
Data from the web site RT.live are showing nine states with an RT below 1.0. As expected, recent excess deaths as measured by the CDC appear to be trending higher.
