petmoosieCDC has gone to Mon-Wed-Fri reporting. They expect to go to weekly reporting soon. It makes sense. School will soon be out (those disease vectors with legs will soon be separated). The warmer average temperatures will result in less effective spread. There is a need to analyze smaller data sets to figure out risk of death/hospitalization and transmission rates in different environments.
I would have done one more daily update to clear the backlog from the three-day weekend, but maybe tomorrow will be the first time that they can actually clear that backlog. The state of Wisconsin (for example) has a much higher number on its public health webpage than CDC is reporting for it.
Rift Valley fever predicted by satellite. The transmission (from mosquitoes) is so weather-dependent that satellites can observe and protect people from the disease (if they follow the advice).
