Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx, two key members of the White House coronavirus task force, have warned nine major cities across the country over their high COVID-19 testing positivity rates.
Birx, coordinator of the White House task force, first raised concerns about the high positivity rates in Atlanta; Baltimore; Boston; Chicago; Detroit; Kansas City, Missouri; Portland, Oregon; Omaha, Nebraska; and Washington, D.C.; in a Wednesday call with state and local officials. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), was asked about the remarks in an interview with CNN on Thursday morning, and he explained that the test positivity rate is "a pretty good predictor" or "indicator" that surges in new infections are coming.

They are trying to increase fear so that they can steal a US Senate seat here in Georgia with the mail in votes.
His attention whoring is absolutely pathological.
Nobody knew who his daughters were, or cared. But then he gave an interview where he revealed their names, photos, where they lived and worked to the world. Apparently just so he could inspire a few kookburgers to threaten him in order to buy his next fifteen minutes of fame.
That move is sick, sick, sick!
You got it!
That's where they want mail in ballots.
Makes you wonder about the Positive test Result Statistics we are fed daily.
“Look! Over here! Look!”
“Pay no attention to Joe Biden.”
The vulnerable died earlier in the year, especially in places like New York where government actions actually made transmission rates worse than it would have been. Since people with comorbidities which would have killed them anyway have already died... Nationwide over the past month using figures provided by the CDC itself... the number of deaths from all causes has dropped below the normal rate.
The Democrats and media will do all that they can to keep it looking like there is still a problem all the way to the election. They are adding people who died months ago to the list; they are counting people who test positive and then get tested multiple times to figure out when they are virus free as multiple new cases, along with numerous other fraudulant accounting methods. But its over and they are beating a dead horse.
There is an interesting graph at this link:
And another graph in the middle of the page here that are quite revealing:
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm
Overall the number of deaths from all causes this year are 10% above normal, but currently we are down to far below the normal death rate. By the end of the year the number of deaths from all causes for all of 2020 will likely be barely above normal. This is because over 90% of the people who died from the Coronavirus had serious comorbidities that would have taken them before the end of the year.
When Jim Jordan asked Fauxi if “protests” led to the spike in Covid cases Fauxi said in his gravely voice “I cannot comment on that.” What a fraud!
Might as well say all democrap-run cities.
For a death rate of 10% worldwide you’d have to have 750 million dead.
The current world population is 7.5 Billion.
About 712,000 people have died so far, if you trust the numbers. So the odds of dying currently are less than 1 in 10,000 worldwide, and most of the dead are over 75 years old and/or in nursing homes with preexisting serious health conditions.
So lock everything down until the last death is registered sometime in the next century. /sarc
I no longer even wonder...the data is simply untrustworthy.
Tuck your granny in the back room and let’s let the virus run itself out. Living in fear is not living at all.
Dem cities again. Now Portland & Atlanta I’m surprised about, not much social gathering there lately /s
All of these second round cities are under dem control.
The 2017 Omaha mayoral election was held on May 9, 2017. Incumbent Mayor Jean Stothert ... However, it remained controlled by a Democratic majority, as only district 7 has a general election between a Democrat and a Republican.
We need to hold a big Fire Fauci protest in Washington.
I bet the little weasel will change his mind and suddently decide that protests DO spread the virus.
Have we figured out yet that these people are clueless, but reveling in their fame and power? Enough, already.
‘Since the pandemic started he has, by my count, been asked exactly FIVE pointed and challenging questions.’
and those couple of questions had him squirming and sweating like a pig; thin skinned SOB, isn’t he...?
I’ll bet it’s the left doing it, so they can blame the right.
Yes they sure did.
“that the test positivity rate is “a pretty good predictor” or “indicator” that surges in new infections are coming.”
Wow really lots of people testing positive is an indicator that people are getting infected. No $hit sherlock.
