WESTCHESTER COVID NEW CASES UP 6% FROM LAST WEEK– 2,156 TESTED POSITIVE APRIL 17 THRU SAT APRIL 23. SPREADING AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME RATE.

WPCNR COVID DAILY. From the New York Covid Tracker. Analysis and Trend by John F. Bailey. April 24, 2022:

For 7 Days concluded Saturday, Westchester County averaged 308 new persons testing positive each day, totaling 2,156 new covid cases for the week.

There were a total of 34,058 persons reported tested for the 7 days, the average tests reported each day was 4,865, persons tested positive, tested so at a 6% infection rate. Two weeks ago there were 1,895 persons testing positive.

By dividing 2,156 the weekly total at the end of Saturday, it means the 1,895 persons tested positive 2 weeks ago (the incubation period for the disease) tells us that 1 infected person infection 1.1 persons which means that each per person gave the disease to one other person, so the disease though growing in infections 6% in one week are not yet exponential spreading the disease.
