Nice work! I’ve been looking for a visualization like this. My only feedback would be to make the non-cumulative view the default. Given the name of the site, it makes sense to highlight the flattening of the curve.

Agreed. "Flattening the curve", at least in its original meaning, has to do with the new case total. Additionally, it is very hard to detect recent changes in a state's results on the cumulative chart.

Thanks, and thanks for the feedback! How would you want to see it highlighted? Show some slope measure for a given curve?

Oops I misread it as two pieces of feedback even though you explicitly said one. I agree - changed!
