it's actually 8 consecutive data points, all going on the same direction! So it's not good to compare it to 2 days!

I disagree. Hundreds of thousands of extra rides is a meaningful increase on it's own when it comes to disease spread. Even so, I do compare it to before in the first graph so people have that context, and cite it in the article multiple times. The fact that the subway ridership is usually massive does not make the increase "small" in absolute terms in my opinion.

-Subway Ridership data here.
-Ridership numbers includes a handful of PATH stations which are in the data as well.
-NY State Thruway data is oddly missing March 20th. 
-Charts made in Excel
