Bingo! Why else would a county that saw 35k+ cases a day for a month suddenly be low tier? :)

Because the data provided is based on per capita values, not absolute ones. LA county has a population of 10 million, so 20 cases per 100,000 (the upper bound of the tier it's in on that map) is 2000 per day.

They also never saw 35k per day. Their 7-day average (which is what that map is showing) peaked at 16,194 on January 1, which was quite a while ago. The peak of their most recent surge was 4771, on August 21, but that surge seems to have passed and their 7-day average as of yesterday is 1922 (which, as you may notice, is between 10 and 20 per 100,000, or exactly the bracket that map puts them in).
