Nobody cares about Covid. We’re on to rioting and removing history so no one will remember why this country was born and surpassed every country in the world to become a beacon of freedom.

A “case” does not mean the subject is even showing any symptoms.

If a patient is admitted to a hospital for some kind of treatment, and that patient tests positive for Covid, that patient is counted as a Covid hospitalization case.

In Texas there wasn’t really a spike, those counties had testing results come in from institutions and some were even an error. One was 92 instead of 2

This is from testing. Tell me about hospitalizations and in what condition they were in when hospitalized”””

You re correct.

How many of these people testing ‘positive’ were not showing ANY symptoms at all?

How many ‘positive’ results are false positives???

How often will these persons be retested-—over & over again???

Nobody’s gonna give in to that this time. Civil disobedience is the name of the game these days. Stay open. There won’t be any cops coming to arrest you in blue states.

Well, renewed shutdowns won’t cut it. Time to cowboy up and power through it. Many will be infected with COVID and some die. That’s how we look at the flu, so we can look at COVID the same way..

Once that was cleared up the labs sent all the piled up results at one time. That is what created all the simultaneous spikes.

I hadn't heard that. Very interesting. I tried doing a search for "covid spikes due to lab issues" and got a few articles that seemed dated. If you have a link to anything that is recent, I'd be very interested in reading up on it.

These MSM morons seem totally unaware that if you test more people there’s a good chance more people will test positive

They're aware. They're just hoping that WE'RE not aware.

“And tell me how many empty hospital and ICU beds there are”

Here are some stats from Illinois. ICU beds in use range from ~ 40% downstate to 60% around Chicago. If you look at the graphs near the bottom of webpage, ICU and ventilator usage have been in steady decline by Covid 19 patients since early May.

AZ hospitals are quite full. It’s not just testing. We reopened, this was going to drive rates up. Then the protests.

I read somewhere that the media is reporting hospitalizations are up, but intentionally misleading people to think that these are COVID hospitalizations. When, in truth, they are increasing due to people who put off procedures during the lockdown finally checking themselves in.

I checked Fla on the Covid Tracking Project site. It has been running an average of 100 civic hospitalizations ccx a day for about a week. Deaths are up a tick. For the last week the positive to tests rate has been between 6%-9% with the higher number in the last three days. So the increases are real, not just result of testing.

Well I’ve got multiple friends in the system. Some that work at Banner, and another working ICU in Phoenix. It’s not misleading. We’re looking at about 80% full here, and it’s mostly covids. Our procedures are still postponed here.
