As expected, we made up for low death tolls over the holiday weekend with a high one today; 919 is the highest death toll since June 3 (excluding a day when NJ changed its reporting standards). However, the combined Saturday-Tuesday numbers are similar to last week.

That is, from Sat.-Tues. last week, 1706 deaths were reported, as compared to 1676 this week. So, the numbers today were about what you might have expected given light reporting over the weekend. We'll have to see if we get back to normal tomorrow or it's another high number.

There were, however, more cases reported over the 4-day period this week (49K/day) than last week (42K), and with a higher positive test rate (~8% vs. ~7%). Maybe you can squint and claim there's a plateau vs. late last week, but I wouldn't count on that given weekend weirdness.
