  We illustrate and study the evolution of reported infections over the month
from March 1st to April 1st in the New York State as a whole, as well as in
each individual county. We search for exponential trends, and try to understand
whether there is any correlation of the timing and dynamics of these trends
with state mandated measures on social distancing and testing. We conclude that
the reports on April 1st may be dramatically under-representing the actual
number of state-wide infections, and we propose reassessment of the data over
the coming weeks, to monitor for effects of the PAUSE directive, and for the
increasing number of casualties as a validating measure.
