That seems reasonable to me, and updates me some toward your view. I feel confused about how rapidly cases fell in the UK. If this has something to do with levels of natural immunity in the UK, I could imagine that meaning the Bay Area has less protection. (~9.7% of the UK has been confirmed-infected, vs. I think ~6.3% of Alameda County.)
I’m also curious how ‘lockdown culture’ differs between Alameda County and the UK—Berkeley has seemed pretty COVID-cautious to me (which makes me think the control system could be more trigger-happy, resulting in fewer cases), but I’m not sure how to compare that to the UK.
