This is my definition of skyrocketing...
Just under a 100% increase in a month...
Here is the graph of the infection rate for the last 30 days...
Well less than a 100% increase in a month.
If you consider it is correct to call well less than 100% increase skyrocketing, then logically wouldn't a higher increase be equally or even more skyrocketing?
Please note that the infection rate has actually been declining the last week while the vaccination rate is spiking now that the vaccine is available...
