I keep seeing the total confirmed cases being reported...but that's weird because it seems cumulative.

Wouldn't a better state be total active cases? I mean if I had the virus a month ago and then got better, I shouldn't be counted anymore. I feel like the total count is misleading people. It comes and then it goes.

but then how could the media spread fear?

Why would I need to watch the news if I'm not afraid?

In the map panel, you can select "cumulative" or "active" (removing deaths and recoveries).

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

interesting website but I think it's not completely up to date. it says only 9 cases in alaska and I think I saw on the local news (I live in Alaska) that it's actually up to 12 now as of last night
