CNBC headline says: “rapid acceleration’ of coronavirus cases”

which probably means more tests will lead to “rapid acceleration of alleged coronavirus positive test results”

or more dodgy tests will result in more false positives.

stop testing until after the election, and there’ll be no new cases!

All Republicans should follow Trump’s lead and take zinc, vitamin D (D3) and melatonin like he is (was?) taking. shh, don’t tell the msm who won’t report on it anyway. :)

This virus came from the Wuhan lab in China. Of that there is little to no doubt. Trump has been holding China responsible for their actions more than any other President in many decades. Yet Biden, who through his son has been making money off of Communist China, is given a pass.

Regarding a possible increase in cases, this may happen, but if there is not an increase in Covid related deaths I am not overly concerned from a medical perspective. Pfizer's vaccine is coming out in November, and we know a lot more now about how to manage Covid infections.

This virus is diabolical. It strikes at exactly the time and in exactly the ways that the left needs to forward its agenda.”

The chemtrails have been very obvious for the past couple of days.

Correct-It correlates nicely with the election and events immediately following....hmmm

We’re not supposed to connect the dots on that one, either. Sheeesh.

BTW-Any group or person that can START a pandemic... can just as easily PREDICT the ‘acceleration’ of a pandemic... See how that works?

It’s always about what’s “going to” happen, and then it doesn’t.

They are a bunch of boys constantly calling “wolf”, and yet CNN and a major chunk of the population laps it up as the word of God.

It’s perplexing. The only significant way this virus has impacted me is that it forces me to WFH, saving me three hours a day and roughly 800 after tax dollars a month.

...and the occasional dirty look from a Karen for not wearing a mask anywhere I go.

I’m almost 67, as is my wife. We are more concerned about the flu than this weak sister. Seriously.

So will Big Mega Virus outbreak week of Oct 26-30 result in poll closures, consolidation of polling places, mass confusion to disrupt the massive Trump voter turnout that we all know is coming? Would not put it past these pukes.

“...the country no longer has any pandemic backstops.”

Like Sweden? :)

There is a huge increase in the number of cases associated with colleges. Students, many of whom live in apartments near the campus, are testing positive because of contact tracing. Some feel a bit sick For a few days. Many are asymptomatic. Almost none are hospitalized. We should have these numbers.

I do not believe these students are staying in their apartments except when they are going out for essential purchases such as groceries. They are not going to in person classes but they are somehow meeting with each other. Human beings want to be with others, not locked away in their homes.

If Republicans are in person voting, and the Republicans have stopped the vote from happening after the 4th, look for rat governors to halt in person voting a week or more before election day, and oops, we can’t get you a ballot in time to vote. Sorry/Sarc

“We don’t have enough people living in fear”

“We are about to have another wave” usually means another wave of testing so we can get the numbers up again
