Will the 7-day COVID-19 case average on January 8th be higher than it was a week earlier?

What is this market about?

This is a market on whether the United States will report a 7-day average of COVID-19 cases for the date of January 8 2022 that is higher than the 7-day average of COVID-19 cases reported for the date of January 1 2022. This market will resolve on data from the CDC's Data Tracker, specifically, the 7-day moving average of COVID-19 cases for the United States, which is available at https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailytrendscases (navigate to "Select a state or territory" and select “United States”, and then scroll to "Data Table for Daily Case Trends" and view the data in the "7-Day Moving Avg" column, which is able to be sorted in descending order). The resolution source will be reviewed at 8 PM ET on January 15 to check the 7-day average for both the dates of January 8 and January 1 2022. If the 7-day average for January 8 exceeds that of January 1 at this check, "Yes" will win. Otherwise, "No" will win. If the resolution source is unavailable at that time, the most recently available data will be used to resolve the market.
