In some states that have reopened very recently, it may be too soon to tell the effect on cases since the incubation period for the virus is widely believed to be two weeks. States that reopened their economies two weeks ago or earlier have seen, on average, a day-to-day decline in new cases of -0.4%, based odata from the University of Maryland. In states that have not yet opened their economies or opened them more recently than two weeks, the trend of new cases is almost unchanged at 0.1%.
