If I did not include your state in this thread, the IHME model can be accessed here where you can select your state. Worth noting that authors of model have also added suggested date of reopening for each state based on data. https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america
Also, as always:
-Models are fallible+need to be constantly updated w/ new data.Changes are expected.
-There are confidence intervals here, so need to look at full range of possibilities
-I did not make this model, and have no power to change its algorithm.Please dont yell at me
