I mean, the Bay Area can read a graph and understand math. It's the dominant industry here, math and data. I don't think the same can be said of the LA region...

Please don't take HN threads into regional flamewar.

It would be nice if the article contained a graph. There's data about reproduction numbers and case numbers for each state at https://rt.live/ but the estimate Rt is at an all time low for California, so that's not useful for understanding this article (since maybe LA and SFO balance out). Are there any sites with good visualizations that help one to see a statement like the claim of this article?

LA Times has statewide and by-county graphs here: https://www.latimes.com/projects/california-coronavirus-case...

The trends there and in news reports like the OP are going to look different from your R_t site because it's based on the official numbers rather than a model.
