quarantined Greek houses?
Nothing says public health like fostering an environment of unchecked binge drinking.
I mean who even had the bright idea of letting kids live in fraternity and sorority houses this semester?

Alabama 7-day case rate has ticked up a bit, but we just posted the lowest daily increase in cases since late June yesterday. State COVID hospitalizations are down 32% in the last two weeks, which is huge.
CFR update:
Age 0-17: ~9,908 cases, 3 deaths = 0.030% CFR
Age 18-24: ~15,292 cases, 4 deaths = 0.026% CFR
Age 25-49: ~43,950 cases, 88 deaths = 0.200% CFR
Age 50-64: ~22,437 cases, 336 deaths = 1.498% CFR
Age 65+: ~18,408 cases, 1,513 deaths = 8.219% CFR
One thing that stands out is the huge jump in the concentration of cases in the 18-49 group. Also, the CFRs have been dropping like a rock lately. I suspect we're picking up more cases than we were in months past due to additional testing. As always, keep in mind that the figures above are likely multiple times higher than the actual IFR due to the number of untested and/or asymptomatic cases.
