I’ve updated my #Missouri #COVID19 website for Tuesday, 6/15 - slu-opengis.github.io/covid_daily_vi…. Quite a few highlights are below 👇.

The growth you can see in the statewide 7-day average, placing us tied for no. 3 nationally, is almost entirely from “outstate” MO. 1/17

The two regions I am most concerned remain the same: Northern Missouri and Southwest Missouri. That said, the number of counties in those areas that I'm watching has grown considerably over the past week. 2/17

In Northern MO, Putnam and Livingston counties are seeing their rates fall, but Linn County remains no. 2 nationally (for jurisdictions with more than 10,000 people) because of its rate of new cases. Mercer is a new county to watch as well. 3/17

My #Missouri #COVID19 website has been fully updated for Sunday, 6/13 - slu-opengis.github.io/covid_daily_vi…. As a reminder, I'm doing slightly more frequent threads again since 7-day averages are growing again.

The 7-day averages statewide and “outstate” crept up a bit again yesterday. 1/8

The general areas of concern remain the same - Northern MO and parts of Southwest MO, but the number of counties with concerning trends has grown over the past few days in SW MO in particular. 2/8

In Northern MO, Putnam County’s superlative rates have fallen sharply, as have rates in Linn and Livingston counties. Linn’s rate remains no. 2 nationwide for counties with more than 10,000 residents. 3/8

@Missouri_NG

I’ve got a few thoughts on the mass vax event I was at today at STLCC’s Forest Park campus.

The excellent - we got vaccinated! 🥳

The great - the @Missouri_NG, @MoSEMA_ DMAT, @SLMPD personnel (including recruits, I think?), and volunteers were all super friendly. 1/12

Once you reached the inside of the gymnasium, the check-in, paperwork, vaccination, and post-vax 15 minute waiting period were all really smooth, well-organized, and efficient. 2/12

This gets me to the bad - it took awhile to get to that point. We'll start with sign-up you picked an appointment (in half-hour blocks) but the email did not tell you how to drive into the site, where to park, and did not provide your appointment time. 3/12

I’ve updated my #Missouri #COVID19 website for Tuesday, 3/23 - slu-opengis.github.io/covid_daily_vi…. A few highlights, and *new* hospitalization plots, are below 👇.

We saw continued declines in #KCMO and “outstate” but did see a slight bump in new cases in the #StLouis metro area. 1/15

We’re now two weeks out from the addition of antigen cases and have seen no real overall change in our current 7-day averages ☝️. This is great news from a tracking perspective, and means our sense of the virus over the past few weeks was not distorted. 2/15

I mentioned a small number of counties that I was concerned about last week. Montgomery County, in Mid MO, has seen its rate of new cases decline just as precipitously as it climbed last week. 3/15

This is my #Missouri #COVID19 evening update 🧵 for Saturday, 1/30. My website has been fully updated - slu-opengis.github.io/covid_daily_vi….

An increase in cases around #KCMO was not enough to offset declines elsewhere, and so the statewide 7-day average fell a bit more yesterday. 1/4

@StLouisCovid

Tonight’s @StLouisCovid memorial is for Peggy Grosberg Ross. She was a philanthropist who supported BJC, including a scholarship at the Goldfarb School of Nursing named for the burn nurse who saved her life. Ms. Ross passed away in January at age 90. 2/4 stlouiscovidmemorial.com/peggy-grosberg…

@TheCivilLife

If you missed it last night, my latest River City Data features an excellent interview with @TheCivilLife's Jake Hafner. I hope you take the time to digest his take on business, brewing, and priorities during the pandemic. 3/4 chrisprener.substack.com/p/weekly-covid…
