My Covid-19 Database

Since 2/24/2020, I have been diligently logging the Covid cases every day -- globally, nationally and by state. I've built a database containing 473 records with daily new cases, daily deaths, death rates and exponential growth factors... Since the widely roll-out of Covid vaccines in March 2021, I've thought about ending the database, but never did. I continued logging each number first thing every morning. 

Now, with the IL's reopening today, with our trip going to the mountains and glaciers tomorrow, it might be time for me to bring the end to this memorable database. It's amazing how people can easily get attached to something -- anything!!!

I am sure when I look back to this database 40 years from now, I'd remember the 16-months-long ordeal; I'd remember how I logged each number every morning hoping to see a different Tomorrow!
