We have recently been hit with a flood of dire news reports about the rise in COVID-19 cases. Yet there is one very important statistic missing in almost all these reports: Daily deaths. Why would that be? Could it possibly be that contrary to the panicked tone of these reports, the daily deaths from the virus have been PLUNGING which gives important context to the media narrative?
Oh, and in case you think I might have edited out any mention of the daily deaths in these news reports, then do your own research and you will see that the full reports did NOT include that vital statistic.
Because Cuomo already wiped out the nursing homes?
PING!
Exactly. Along with any mention of the severity of the cases and the skyrocketing numbers of “recovered” cases.
I can not find Positivity as a medical term, only the word Positive and the contrary being Negative.

There are by some miracle, zero deaths from any other causes than Covid.
amazing.
He deliberately spread COVID19 in nursing homes to spike the death rate. What horrible people these are that are grabbing at power.
Yup, he and the other dem governors have seen to that.
The mantra now isn’t “we’re all going to die!” It’s “we’re all going to get sick! (and maybe not even notice it).”
The other thing most news casts won’t reveal is the number of cases that have recovered...they say it is too difficult to determine that number..however, our county does give out that number.
And that was always the strategy: to draw out the pandemic and be able to manage the disease with our healthcare system
The attenuated pandemic strategy was NEVER messaged to the public.
A major communications fail.
The death rate and emergency hospitalization rate due to COVID-19 is down and has nothing to do with incubation periods.
Texas was at Phase 3 on June 3rd and that was over three weeks ago.
The reason there are more positives for SARS-COV-2 infections is people were previously infected but never showed symptoms. But now they are coming out and getting tested.
Very few infected with the SARS-COV-2 will develop the disease COVID-19.
CASES CASES CASES!
This is why Trump needs to do a prime time address and call out the media once again. This is positive news and we need positive news from our leader. He needs to get rid of Fauci, but for some reason he hasn’t. Seems as everyone in the real world is thinking the same thing but the politicians are keeping us locked down? Why? Even Abbott in Texas has succumbed to the madness.
The following are inconclusive at this point in time imo.
Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!
Supporting PDJT with new patriot federal and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.
Keep in mind that Fake News Media reduces the news to a 2nd grade comprehension level. The people who watch Fake News Media can only handle one fact at a time.
The Fake News Media would horribly confuse their viewers if FNM told them that something was going up and something was going down in the same broadcast.
Nearly no Covid deaths under 65+
Roughly 2 million 65+ people die each year from all causes.
The daily death count in the US looks like it is flattening down to 450/day. It was 1000/day for just NYC a few months ago but it looks like 450/day will be the plateau without harsh lockdown.
450/day and essentially all of them 65+ means 164K/yr.
This is an increase of 8%/yr for old folks death. Pretty steep.
“... people were previously infected but never showed symptoms. But now they are coming out and getting tested”
There are two types of tests:
1. Are you infected NOW (RT-PCR test)?
2. Were you infected in the past BUT NOT NOW (a serology or antibody test)? Serology / antibody tests don’t work until one to three after the infection.
I believe that almost all of the testing being done is to see if you are sick now, not if you had the disease in the past. So, if somebody who was sick a month ago and recovered comes out today to get tested, they will get the RT-PCR test which will show negative for infection today.
FR Docs — did I get that right?
Generally correct. PCR tests look for virus present now. Serology tests look for antibodies formed to fight the virus (takes weeks) and they linger after the virus is gone.
The bad news in all of this is the most recent reports suggest the antibodies only linger 8 weeks. There is more to immunity than antibodies, but that’s what we have to work with. If you had the disease and recovered, your recovery may make you immune only 8 weeks. Then you could re-infect.
