They are CDC backside-kissers so that’s probably where they get their info.

I want everyone to look at the stats.

Take a look at “positives/tested”.

What should I take from this low ratio? No one talks about this, but MANY are being tested while FEW are actually positive.

LA has more confirmed cases than CA.

How can that be?

Dereliction of duty.

LA was one of the last places to start testing. South GA that is so hard hit had 41 cases in one hospital and no tests for a month. They are catching up now, but sheesh.

Back when the CDC was doing all the testing, they managed to test some people in some states and ignored others. Why is that?

Also, Some governors had more pull with testing than others, obviously, same with celebs, sport stars, and politicians.

It wasn’t until Pence stepped in that testing started being available across the board.

Personally, I wish I had never heard of it.

The Coronavirus Will Return In The Fall, Fauci Predicts, But The U.S. WILL Be Better Prepared

And if history is any measure, it will come back with a vengeance.

Fauci said he “anticipates” such an event happening in the U.S. “because of the degree of transmissibility” and the fact that countries in the Southern Hemisphere are seeing more cases as they transition into their winter season.

The Coronavirus Will Return In The Fall

The Warriors will not tolerate shutdown for the rest of the year.

You can take that to the bank.

It’s meaningless because they can still catch the virus. What you look for is the saturation point or what people call BoomerRemover. When the medical system gets overwhelmed, they just let people die.

But you are not talking massive #’s of deaths and if you are not in a urban area, you have less chances of infection. For instance, new fatalities % in New York state from March 31 to Apr 1 = 43.16%

Not necessarily. Dougherty County, GA is rural and has one of the highest infection rates and fatality rates (per capita) in the world.
