As usual, NJ has updated their probable death time series this week. The data runs through Tuesday but was only released on Thursday (9/3).

Our weekly backfill of NJ's probable deaths time series, including updating the total deaths to account for the modified probables data. This removes an apparent drop in NJ total deaths on 8/26.

Weekly backfill of NJ probable deaths using state-provided probable deaths by date of death time series. Total deaths recalculated from probable + confirmed (confirmed deaths are dashboard date).
