Places with highest daily reported cases per capita
Seven-day average of daily new reported cases per 100,000 residents
Do we have any statistics on the common cold and the regular flu?
No sir. COVID-19 will be over by Election Day.
The majority of Covid deaths reported are not due to Covid and everyone should know that by now. This is getting boring and tiresome.
Please report the other 6438 deaths per day in the US.
So-guess there is no need for 300 million vaccinations like Trump wants then-huh?
Depends on how long the immunity we get from COVID-19 lasts. If we can get it over and over, it would make sense to receive a vaccination. Otherwise, I would say no.
The president gets it. Pence gets it. Trump even said it. But you all don’t believe him-which I find ironic.
Better tell that to Trump and operation warp speed. He’s very happy about the program.
I wouldn't do anything different. There's a lot that we do not know about the virus. So in a way, this is our "insurance".
My pastor e-mailed me about two of their family’s good friends dying today from COVID. He told me to wear my mask. I e-mailed him back to ask if they had pre-existing conditions. This is al very sad when only 1 family member and sometimes none can be at the bedside of a dying loved one.
What immunity? We get flu shots every year and tens of thousands of people die from it including many children every year. Next year another flu vaccine comes out and still tens of thousands of people die from the flu. What is the point? Wash and rinse. Wash and rinse. There will ALWAYS be diseases out there so I guess everyone needs to wear their stupid mask for the rest of your lives. Covid is no worse than the any other diseases that have happened in the past 60 years i.e. Asian Flu, Hong Kong Flu etc.
I agree. It killed a lot of people because it’s a novel virus that we have no immunity to. But probably no deadlier than Asian flu or Hong Kong flu. I would guess that the population was much younger and healthier back then than today. So of course COVID-19 is killing all of those elderly patients in nursing homes. And others with preexisting conditions. That 28 years old teacher from SC who died recently turned out to be morbidly obese. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was diabetic.
I had 3 very good friends die of cancer IN ONE WEEK. Mainly because they had been denied entrance in to hospitals because of “supposed” need for Covid patients only which turned out to be a total lie. So many have died of cancer, heart failure, etc. due to to medical neglect because of the Covid numbers hoax.
Amen. You actually get it. Thanks for saying it!

People need to put this in perspective.

Also note Covid is not nearly the most contagious disease compared to other diseases.
forget all the revelations about FALSE POSITIVES. Cambridge University/BBC/ABC Australia are broadcasting the following (in Australia today). note how small the “studies” are, not to mention other rubbish:
8 Sept: The Naked Scientists: How can you catch all the false negatives?
(broadcast on BBC and ABC Australia)
Interview with Ravi Gupta, University of Cambridge
One big problem when testing people for COVID-19 is false negative test results. This is where a person is tested for coronavirus infection and told they are negative when in reality they really are infected: one study found that this might be the case in more than half of patients...
But there are ways of making sure that these people don’t slip through the net. Adam Murphy spoke to Ravi Gupta, form the University of Cambridge, who has been testing one of them…
Ravi: So this study does not call into question what’s happening in screening strategies. So if you screen negative, then you’re not infectious. So I really want to make sure that people don’t come away from this thinking that a negative test out in the community means you could still have COVID. Our study was really looking at hospitalised patients where they have virus production lower down towards their lungs...
And when we put the antibody test together with the swab test that looks for genetic material, we were able to come up with a highly sensitive and specific test for patients coming to hospital, so that we could get up to a hundred percent diagnoses.
Adam - Is that what you can get up to then, 100%?
Ravi - Yes, so in this small study, it was a relatively small number. It was only about 50 patients that we were able to do this in, because you needed to have stored serum, you needed to have a diagnosis at the front door and you needed to have had the correct swab taken...
Adam - And then what about the other side? False positives. Does this become a problem with this method?
Ravi - The nose and throat swab for genetic material of the virus, what we call PCR, has been shown to be very highly sensitive, with a very low false positive rate. You really don’t get many false positives with that. But on the other hand, the antibody tests have a reputation for having a higher false positivity rate. So coming up with a positive, when the patient actually is negative. To address that, we looked at something like between 120, 150 patients with the antibody test. And we found only, I think, well, between zero and one false positive, so this was actually better than we expected. So the tests actually performed very well. The finger prick antibody tests that people think are not doing so well, the selected ones performed very well in our hands. And that’s the key thing. There are good tests and bad tests depending on the manufacturer. So if you choose the right test, you really can get high levels of accuracy...

The point is more people died of the Asian and Hong Kong Flu by far more this Covid. The population was one half of what it is today. So the numbers are doubled to what Covid is today. I don’t care about false positive or false negative test. That just proves the stupidity of this whole mess. Reported cases are due to a minimum of $20,000+ paid For every case reported and that is well known. Follow the money. I never thought after seeing so many die in wars who sacrificed their lives under horrible conditions, that I would see a generation of younger people, and mostly men, so scared of their own shadows. When I see, especially men wearing a mask, which are totally and scientifically unproven to prevent anything, it sickens me. It is a generation that has no clue of what real danger and sacrifice is and sadly is afraid of everything.
Shhhh....
Shhh. Exactly the problem. Everyone has been muzzled with mask and march to the Marxist.
