More than 77,000 new cases of COVID-19 were recorded in the US on Thursday alone — setting a new record for daily infections, statistics show.

Thursday’s numbers — 77,640 new cases — eclipsed the previous record set on July 29, when 75,723 new cases were reported, according to a tally by NBC News.

A total of 921 coronavirus-related deaths were also reported on Thursday.

A friend tested negative 5 times and when they released him from the hospital they still told him that he needed to quarantine because he probably had covid.

No!

77,640 New Case declarations Thursday was not a new record.

On 07/16 the United States reported out 77,985 New Cases.
On 07/24 the United States reported out 78,501 New Cases.

Further, the actual number of cases on Thursday was 76,872.

Not sure where NBC gets their numbers, but JHU and WoM
are reliable sources. I disagree with NBC’s findings.

JHU and Wom get their numbers from the CDC and the WHO.

I currently have numbers for 229 nations through JHU and WoM.

“Cases” labeling is a scam. We are exposed to millions of foreign bodies entering our immune system. Anyone can get a “case” as determined by a test that picks up just one molecule. The curve went flat months ago. The death rate is close to zero and is less than the seasonal flu. Protect the vulnerable and free the rest!

Cases really mean almost nothing. Can you imagine the flu statistics if we actually tested people en masse?

Protect and subsidize the vulnerable. Care for the sick. Vaccinate those who want it. Open the world.

The chances of getting this is low. The chances of dying from it are so tiny, so as not be meaningful for the average person.

Like the local welfare offices tell their employees...
Tomorrow we can do better!
Expect close to a 100,000 by Nov 1.

“Obviously the lockdowns haven’t solved anything”

True.

And insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.

What was the Hong Kong flu case rates during the 1968 elections?

It should be remembered that *detecting* diseases is part of the process to eliminate them. That is, infections that are detected can be isolated. And once isolated can be eliminated from the infectious pool.

Hospitalizations and ICU cases in Ohio have doubled over the past couple of weeks. Death rate is way down compared to the beginning of the pandemic, presumably because doctors have learned more and there are new treatments available.

“The flu numbers this year are almost zero. I wonder why?”

Because of the ongoing mitigation. So, the mitigation results in a 95% reduction in the common flu. Does that mean it has also reduced CCP-19 by 95%? And since we can tell the difference, no, you can’t claim that they are counting flu as CCP-19 and explain the difference that way. Even if you could, how do you explain the other 190,000 deaths? Plus, flu season is just starting, so the question is really, how do you explain the other 220,000 deaths?

Get over it, people, it’s a real thing and wearing tinfoil will not fix it.

Here’s something I am unclear on: If I test positive on Monday, that’s one case. They would give me treatment. And they would re-test me to see if I am negative, right? If I am tested and found positive M-F and then found negative on Saturday, am I in the books as 5 cases of COVID?

Yes. Not only that, if after testing negative for the virus, if you were given an antibody test which means you had the virus, you would be counted as another new case.

Thanks. Remember how libby reporters conflated on immigration and still do? Conflated illegal immigrant and legal immigrant into just one word? They were both conflated into “immigrant” and “migrant”

SAME going on with how Covid19 cases and positive tests are being mixed together. Very very sloppy language that is partly intentional to keep the media induced Covid lockdown panic alive, and partly though sheer stupidity and intellectual laziness.

My county is sort of liberal. You know the media brainwashing is intense when you see people walking in our non-crowded outdoors with masks on. Even out there running with masks on.

Fake News and the Dems are desperate for a headline to get Biden’s disasterous debate performance off the news cycle.
