Yes that graph you linked looks accurate, you can see they put correct death total of 9 for 7/9 It's only a two week graph though, I like to see the trends since the beginning like the blue graph I posted several times.. We will probably see a slight uptick in deaths from this surge, median age of new cases for past two weeks is 35-40 so I don't think deaths will spike in a huge way since that age group doesn't die a lot. The deaths will come from younger people with hypertension or some other condition that covid preys on, or from older people that think it's safe to go out and party. Personally, I stay out of all buildings except home, curbside groceries, and golf.
