Hi, thanks for this! You are right. This chart is not the entire US population, it is the sample of the population who has reported a positive COVID test.

Not expected behavior, thanks for finding this bug! I'll work on fixing it.

Hi, thanks for noting this. I actually intentionally made the most recent day yesterday because today's data will always be live and not actually reported yet. Good eye!

This is a great idea, thank you. Currently there is no count of those who got covid vs entire population, but it would be interesting to know! I've added this to the upcoming feature list: https://github.com/michaelboerman/covid_percentiles/issues/7

Yes, that surprised me, too. January 2022 alone accounts for about a quarter of all cases to date in the United States.

Good question, and you are right in that assumption would not be true. This is just comparing against anyone in the US who did catch COVID. I think the title in the plot clarifies this - but I will update the wording to be all the more clear. Thanks!
