Yes, but why is the number of cases per day increasing. Are you testing more? Are you in a situation similar to Colorado where a large backlog of tests are finally yielding results? Are you testing localities in different proportions than you were previously?
In other words, the most incorrect thing you can do is to simply look at the cases per day figure and use that as a basis for what is happening. If it really is more people getting the virus then you are only about a week away from seeing deaths increase (as your cases started increasing over a week ago). The truth will be known soon. Are you ready to accept it when it is?
