I wasn't trying to say it's not a horrific number, just pointing out that the peak was 1000+ last spring so up to 50% higher wouldn't be outwith expectations for the 2nd wave of an epidemic, and thus wouldn't be "time to panic" (if there is one). Also pointing out that if you were to take the graph posted "as read" it would be much higher than that, highlighting that it's important to remember that we have no idea what the infections-per-day or infections-per-100k-population were back in April so trying to graph them is largely meaningless.
