Makes sense though when you think of the each city, and county, and state are required to report their numbers daily and those numbers can be accessible to the public. Factor in that every news station is constantly updating the numbers, The probability that a story would pop up on google with “any three numbers followed by new cases” is quite high. You factor in Our population too. Yeah, it actually makes sense to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I tried to find a counterexample but there doesn't seem to be one. Fun observation.
