Based on expanding its size and do tracing paper tick-mark measurements (I could have also spreadsheeted the daily numbers for a few weeks and then put in the appropriate formulas). Includes the July 3 number.

It's still way down from the late May peak.

Anyway, there's been quite an uptick for the past 2 weeks (On July 4, June 19 was 15 days ago).

Stay safe. Seeing these numbers, I've decided against an activity that I was on the verge of going ahead with.

====================================================

The below has daily new cases according to the date the specimen was collected, so the last several days are low as they caution, as e.g. all specimens collected in the last 7 or so days have not been tested and reported. But its good for other data like deaths, hospitalizations, and ICU.

Uggh, around 1 am on 7/2 I wrote down: Minnesota: 6.7 cases per 100k, Hennepin: 8.3 cases per 100k

  Just now 1040 am on 7/4: Minnesota: 7.8 {1} cases per 100k, Hennepin: 9.8 cases per 100k

  These are rolling 7 day averages.

{1} Edited Minnesota from 8.0 to 7.8 cases per 100k because I noticed at the far right when Minnesota is selected, it says 7.8. I got the previous "8.0" from hovering over the Minnesota map when "states" is selected and "Minnesota" is selected. It said "8". Knowing that they list the numbers, including state numbers to 1-place-to-the-right-of-the-decimal point from previous notes, I inferred that "8" meant "8.0" but apparently not. Sigh. Life sucks and then you die. "Fool me once shame on you, fool me -- umm -- err --- uh --- can't get fooled again."
