This Is What Wave Of The Covid Pandemic Your State Is In Best Life

In a study published on Sept. 22 in the journal Chaos, the authors took data collected in the seven-month period from Jan. 21 to July 31, 2020 and ran it through an algorithm that “selects a set of turning points for each state, computes distances between them, and determines whether each state is in (or over) a first or second surge.” A “turning point” is when a declining curve of cases spikes upward or a curve that is rising suddenly turns downward. Based on these findings, the researchers were able to determine that 31 states are in a second wave of the pandemic, 13 are still in the first wave, and a handful of other states either have either flattened the curve of the first wave, fully completed the second wave, or are coming off the first wave.
