   COVID hospitalizations are probably the best parameter of the current status:   
      
   https://i.ibb.co/VvjmXx5/COVID-Hospitalizations.png   
      
   As the above graph shows, Hospitalizations Nationwide are now at 100,000.   
      
   October 1, they were 30,000.   
      
   They previously have been as high as 60,000, at the end of July, and the end   
   of April.   
      
   Above graph is from Wikipedia Statistics of the COVID-19 Pandemic:   
      
   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistics_of_the_COVID-19_pandemi   
   _in_the_United_States#Progression_charts   
   if you scroll down two charts to "Current COVID-19-related hospitalizations"   
      
      
   You can try to find data for your own area, State/County/City if you want to   
   see   
   how correlated they are with the National trend.   
      
   Total Hospitalizations should probably be more prominently reported in the   
   News as   
   the determiner of the current status, as more tests = more cases.
