Odd historical behavior in US Data

3T days to double in February?

when there is no cases, time to double is infinitely. :)

Oh yeah, makes sense! Do you think it’s an odd UI, since it flattens the current data to the button of the graph?

Perhaps “infinity” could be represented without a line on the graph... a mouse hover in that region would reveal the infinite days to double, but the graph itself wouldn’t re-scale? Or we could not prevent the date slider from going back that far? I find it odd to be scrolling back, looking for data trends, then all of a sudden the line goes flat b/c scale is now 0 - 3T

I'll say we can wait on this. Plenty of larger features to build. see this:
