Recovery time is two weeks for mild cases and 3-6 weeks for those that are critical.
It looks like we should be gaining but the media seems to paint the bleakest picture that it can.
You should also take into account that NH numbers are also highly under reported due to not testing as many people due to lack of testing. We saw this in MA, when we did get the tests the numbers exploded. I work in NH and have a couple of people tell me they have some symptoms but couldn't get tested.
Just something to keep in mind
