Since the peak on the 16th of 413k, it has been 387k, 340k and 330k the 3 days since. Putting that in perspective, they are all well above the 90th percentile of 303k and the 387k on the 17th is the 3rd highest daily number so far. The weekend numbers tend to be a bit flattering looking at the graph but Monday was lower than expected.

Will be interesting to see what the numbers for Tuesday bring.
Georgia (the country, not the State) makes an interesting study. They went through all of the early pandemic from March until June averaging only 8 cases per day with a peak of 42 in mid April. From then until mid July that average dropped to 3 cases per day with a peak of 9 and you'd have said they pretty much had it under control.
Cases started to climb from about 18th July with an average of 12/day through to the end of July and then dropped to 10/day through August before climbing to 39/day in early September and since then it has rocketed to be 225/day for the balance of September and 656/day thus far in October, with their highest figure of 1,192 two days ago and their second highest yesterday.
