Today we launched a summaries tool on Artifact. For those with info overload, this is a great tool to have the context you need more quickly before diving in more deeply.

@PapaLamb77 @tvladeck Deaths do not influence Rt - rather the other way around but likely lagged between 2-3 weeks. You may see spurious correlation because of that lag
