The site I follow showed a huge drop on Sunday of about 9,000 new cases from the previous high of 34,000+. Yesterday, there were about 30,000 new cases - up from Sunday, but well-under the 34,000 of a couple of days earlier. Sad to say, the early numbers today suggest we might be reaching a new high.
CHRIS CUOMO
SHARES HIS CHEST X-RAY ON TV ...
I’m Fighting it 100%!!!

Chris Cuomo is getting up close and personal about his battle with COVID-19 — and the reason he’s so intimate is because he wants folks to know they can fight and win.
The CNN anchor is still working and aired his x-ray Monday night during his show ... and Dr. Sanjay Gupta joined him to evaluate the state of Chris’ lungs. Gupta says there’s definite signs of inflammatory fluid build-up ... a tell-tale sign of coronavirus.
Chris passionately explained how he’s doing everything he can at home to avoid going to the hospital and adding one more patient to an already-flooded and overworked healthcare system in crisis at the moment. Sounds like what he’s doing — on his doctor’s advice — might well be working.
He told viewers he’s constantly moving — getting up, laying on his side, stretching, talking, whatever — to keep the virus on its toes, ‘cause he says it’s banking on people becoming sedentary and passive as it sets up shop in the body ... particularly in the chest.
Chris added that he truly feels this is happening to him for a reason — namely, to help others.
It’s depressing, but it’s also very important that these numbers be noted and analyzed.
It’s the only real way to understand what we are dealing with and how best to deal with it.
Personal note: Rush is bothering me today pretty darn good.
