Comparisons are never perfect, but we will surely be able to learn from seeing what happens. Also, it's not as if the only data that will come in will be at the county level. Menlo Park and Palo Alto are virtually identical from a demographic perspective and will be following different rules. We'll be able to see how their reported numbers differ. For example, we'll be able to track the case counts in MP and PA school districts.
