19FortyFive ^ | 1/11/2021 | Ethen Kim Lieser

Roughly one in every fifteen Americans have now tested positive for the novel coronavirus, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.

Over the past weekend, the United States surpassed twenty-two million cases and 370,000 related deaths—both figures by far the highest among all countries.

Health officials, however, are anticipating even darker days ahead despite the surge in cases and fatalities in recent weeks.

“370,000 related deaths”

Related in the sense that they occurred on Planet Earth.

Tell the truth, you Satanic degenerates.

After reading the article, I still don't know over what time period the report covers. Doing a little calculator fun, the numbers suggest that this is a cumulative total over the past 10 months.

It could be 100% test positive, doesn’t mean that any are infectious. The tests are unreliable.

Eventually, it will have infected everyone that hasn’t been vaccinated. Pick your poison.

I just had minor surgery, glad I tested negative so I could get it done. That was my biggest worry about the whole thing. Not the Rona, but testing positive and having to jump thru hoops and try to reschedule my life around it again.

Regardless of whether it was:

a) a naturally occurring viral outbreak,
b) an accidental outbreak of a virus being researched in a lab for benign purposes,
c) an accidental release of a virus being weaponized in a lab for hostile purposes or
d) the intentional release of a weaponized virus for hostile purposes -

it is the Iranians and North Koreans who will take note. They have been spending billions pursuing nuclear weaponry when it would be relatively dirt-cheap to re-engineer viruses. With the object lesson of how much damage you can do to the world economy and the strength of your enemies for a reasonably cheap investment - the future looks like a lot more virus outbreaks. Sigh.

My son had a surgery right before year-end and I was afraid they would postpone it to this year and I had already met my deductible. Fortunately, he made it through the gauntlet.

“Health officials, however, are anticipating even darker days ahead”

Of course, they are. Got to shake the boogie man stick to keep the sheep in line.

I’ll tell you, if I get sick, unless I need to go to the ER for it, I am NOT getting tested.

If I can fight this off myself, that’s what’s happening.

The tests were unreliable. Regardless of testing accuracy or inaccuracy, if you haven't gotten Covid yet, you will unless you get the vaccine. You're gonna have to take your chances with one or the other. Your symptoms may be mild or they may be fatal or anywhere in between those two extremes.

Horrible! Aspirin sales must be through the roof. Too bad they don’t allow Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin

We are seeing the aftermath of the “Testing, testing, testing!” mantra, with the CDC claiming huge amounts of asymptomatic spread. BS.
