I think I see an increase two increases in rate since memorial day.  I am 
guessing that one is due to memorial day, and the other, perhaps to the 
demonstrations. 

But how the hell are we to know.  We're talking about Texans, here.  (};-)]

The increased slope in Harris county starts early May. They announced 
"reopening" plans in late April. It seems to me to be more related to that than 
to the protests. While it's true the *spline* MODEL shows something of an 
inflection point in late May, it's just a model that uses the entire data set. 
To dig down into particular events like 4/27 or 6/2, you'd have to limit the X 
axis, I think.

As always do not take the model too seriously. Look at the data.
