I believe confirmed cases may be understated, since many tests (corporate, schools, mabe sports teams) are being conducted outside the usual reporting chains.
So, as you have said, and I completely agree, watch the deaths and hospitalizations for sustained upticks to get an idea of recent trend in rate of infection (looks back at infections in last 3 to 8 weeks). Also the Hopkins positivity rate (not the misleading Maryland ones). The Labor Day and back-to-school bumps are due to start showing up in hospitalizations by early to mid-October, if gatherings spiked as predicted.
