Deaths are very low across the U.S.
They were lower in mid July but that’s about it.
From the data I’m seeing, we are getting more cases than ever but the virus is becoming less virulent.
Deaths caused by alcohol: 2,054,606
Deaths caused by seasonal flu: 401,815
Deaths caused by road accidents: 1,108,924
Suicides this year: 880,923
for some perspective:
Statista: Covid deaths per million at 26 Oct 2020

France coronavirus: True daily case toll probably above 100,000, top scientist admits
Daily Mail - 27 Oct 2020
Somebody has a doom porn fetish.
It is just a planscamdemic to steal our freedom, prosperity, and country.
“From the data Im seeing, we are getting more cases than ever but the virus is becoming less virulent.”
Yes, that’s one hypothesis.
I think more likely it’s more tests equals more positives which are called cases even if the person does not have Covid-19 - the disease.
No symptoms or mild.
Early on when testing was limited, only sick people got tested which caused the rate of positive to seriously ill or death to be very high. Now almost half the country has been tested.
We will find out next Tuesday. If Democrats win big, you can count on increased COVID-19 regulations. Take that to the bank.
That's true about NYC during the initial outbreak in the spring. If they had the testing that we have right now, we could probably confirm at least 2 million more positive cases.
“That’s true about NYC during the initial outbreak in the spring. If they had the testing that we have right now, we could probably confirm at least 2 million more positive cases.”
Subsequent antibody tests have confirmed that.
The New York City Tri-state area epidemic dwarfs anything else in the U.S. And probably the world.
It makes you wonder. It did not get that bad anywhere else with the possible exception of northern Italy.
Yes. Milan region and NYC.
I haven’t looked to see which had more deaths per capita or the shape of the curves compared to each other.
follow-up:
44,998 covid deaths in UK is equal to 224,900 deaths in US.
have only covered UK and France. how come they don’t get the FakeNewsMSM worldwide headlines, the US gets?
Look how after June and tests began to be widely available the case number follows the test numbers.
Their leaders are not running for reelection.
The true number of Americans infected is probably at 30 million. Maybe more.
“The true number of Americans infected is probably at 30 million. Maybe more.”
You mean cumulatively, I assume.
Yep. All the way back to March when we started to notice cases (it appears that the strain that infected a nursing home in Washington State in February was a different strain, you could say that was contained).
