Few need admission to the Intensive Care Unit, which is now half full, two weeks after overflow necessitated transfers to nearby hospitals.
Cases appear to be leveling off in Washington state, where outbreak started | Boston.com
Also saw a drop in new cases per day at Florida Health dashboard. There were 506 new cases in Florida on 3/24, and 350 on 3/25. See graph at lower left after clicking link.

My wife went back to work yesterday after her five days off and said the hospital was in the "Green" for the first time in awhile. Meaning they weren't at or over capacity. It was just a couple of weeks ago that they were asking for emergency certification to open up more beds.
I doubt we're out of the woods yet but it would appear that our "stay at home" order is working. I just wish more people would follow it and maybe end this thing a little sooner.
We're about 50 miles from the hospital mentioned in the article.
