What has changed? Either control measures like masks and isolation actually are starting to slow the spread, or other factors like the shortage of testing kits and/or political editing is skewing the numbers.
The supply chain would be under enormous pressure.
There must be limits to supply of testing kits, doctors and laboratory resources.
Hopefully, it isn't anything more nefarious than good luck at play.
