Here’s a link to a Google Sheet collecting this data over time. FWIW, 2 weeks ago, we have now had two days in a row with 6+% positives in the tests. Personally, I think this is ‘better’ for Indiana because we should want to keep infecting our people on a reasonable (if not systematic), controlled basis, so the herd gets its immunity. Be safe, everyone.
