Hospitalization numbers do not indicate the frequency of the active new cases in the population, only those that symptoms progress to a more severe levels. The average age of those now being found positive for covid is 35 years, not older who the symptoms become more critical and need a hospital.
Bump
Tuscaloosa? What percent of these kids are Roll Tide? War Eagle? UAB or UA Huntsville students?
You people?
Are you disassociating yourself from Us people?
You are going to be exposed to this disease sooner or later. If you hide in your basement it might be later. If you just live your life it might be sooner. Or you might have already been exposed.
This lockdown was as idiotic as a BLM riot run by Brainwashed white college graduates.
Ditch the masks. Go to church. Sing. Hug an old friend. Live your life. Life is risky. Live it.
You, yes YOU are going to be exposed to this virus. This virus is ubiquitous. It’s everywhere. It’s going to find it’s way into your body. You can delay it, but you can’t stop it. You will get it and you may never know it because your body will fight it off or you may get some symptoms or you may get really sick or you may die. But you are going to be exposed.
Hiding in your basement just prolongs the inevitable. Go outside. Have a normal 4th.
Years of stupid liberalism did this.
It’s ok for her to hide in her own basement. However the insisting that everyone has to hide in their basement is what makes her a tyrant.
Freedom is always the answer
CNN fools got punked again from jokesters on social media.
Hahahahaha!!!!
You are referring to lockdowns and mask laws and idiots like Fauchi dictating our behavior, I presume.
Two weeks to slow the spread. Remember that? Now it’s turning into two years.
Maybe they’re slowing the spread too slowly?
Get it now. Get it over with. To hell with all the house arresting and the masking and the distancing.
Accessory? I think he signed the mandate. That should make him a principal.
I guess when death strikes your family you will sing a different tune.
If this is a fake crisis then there should be nothing wrong with Covid in nursing homes.
Wrong again. It’s what the CDC has said based on PCR testing and what anybody with half a brain who understands epidemiology would conclude.
How many parties? 200? 2? Fake news?
Claptrap. I didn’t say it was utterly safe. Putting Covid in nursing homes made it into a crisis for the elderly. Locking down the economy made it an economic crisis. The latter did nothing to help the infected elderly dying from exposure to Covid 19. I used to have a brother-in-law who abused his children. He’d tell them at the playground: “Get off that slide or you’ll get hurt!” When the kids slid down the slide, he’d be waiting at the bottom to smack them and say, “Told you you’d get hurt!” Same thing. Infecting nursing home inmates creates a fake crisis. Locking down the economy is a fake solution.
That new G4 H1N1 flu hits those who had Covid 19 really hard.
You're right about that.
NPR: "Mounting Evidence" Suggests COVID Not As Deadly as Thought. Did the Experts Fail Again?
NPR | July 3, 2020 | NPR
A new NPR report suggests the global response to COVID-19 may have been reached on a flawed premise.
Mounting evidence suggests the coronavirus is more common and less deadly than it first appeared.
The evidence comes from tests that detect antibodies to the coronavirus in a person's blood rather than the virus itself.
The tests are finding large numbers of people in the US who were infected but never became seriously ill. And when these mild infections are included in coronavirus statistics, the virus appears less dangerous.
"The current best estimates for the infection fatality risk are between 0.5% and 1%," says Caitlin Rivers, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security.
"The public is behaving as if this epidemic is the next Spanish flu, which is frankly understandable given that initial reports have staked COVID-19 mortality at about 2-3 percent, quite similar to the 1918 pandemic that killed tens of millions of people," Jeremy Samuel Faust an emergency medicine physician and an instructor at Harvard Medical School, wrote in Slate. "Allow me to be the bearer of good news. These frightening numbers are unlikely to hold."
Similarly, on March 5 vaccine expert Paul A. Offit, who holds the Maurice R. Hilleman Chair of Vaccinology at the University of Pennsylvania, told Factcheck.org that he believed that the World Health Organization's 3.4 percent fatality rate figure was too high, suggesting it was well below 1 percent.
"We're more the victim of fear than the virus," Offit said, adding that the world was witnessing a "wild overreaction" to the disease.
