Based on anecdotal evidence and hearing people around me talking about people they know getting sick recently, I thought we might have seen a small uptick in the # of cases recently, at least in the Bay Area, but it turns out that’s not the case.

It’s funny how our narratives can be shaped, and how personal anecdotes can impact those narratives. Even though something seems obvious and true based on our exposure and info from those around us, it doesn’t line up with the data/facts.
