This Figure Groups States According to Similarity in Their Turning Points in New Case Trajectories

Caption

This figure groups states according to similarity in their turning points in new case trajectories. Five primary (sub)clusters of time series are identified with the following behaviors: the top 31 states plus D.C. are beyond their first wave and are now experiencing a second wave. The 13 states at the bottom are still in their first wave. The final six states in the middle of the diagram have either flattened the curve after one wave (New York and New Jersey), are coming off the first wave (Utah and Arizona) or have fully completed their second wave (Vermont and Maine).
