California virus cases rising as delta variant spreads
NY Post ^ | 07/02/2021 | AP

California broadly reopened its economy barely two weeks ago and since then an especially contagious coronavirus variant has spread among the unvaccinated, a development that has health officials on edge and already has prompted Los Angeles County to strongly recommend everyone resume wearing masks inside.

The nation’s most populous state is averaging close to 1,000 additional cases reported daily, an increase of about 17% in the last 14 days. Officials expected an increase when capacity limits were lifted for businesses and most mask restrictions and social distancing requirements were eliminated for vaccinated people.

Methinks he will wait until all his dirty tricks regarding the recall have succeeded. He can then continue dragging what was a once rich and respected state into its sure to come Venezuela-like future.

Which level of testing was used? Probably the false positive level to run up the scare factor.

They'll send more to the hospital these days. But the Delta variant is definitely less lethal. UK cases have spiked, and deaths have barely budged (even considering a two week delay)

Blue state power-trippers are so anxious to get muzzles back on people. They abhor any kind of freedom.

This has been the most despicable deception ever perpetrated.

Causing world panic over the common cold.

And this touches on what has frustrated me from the very beginning. Namely, that while this is a serious virus, we have treated it as if it were the return of the Bubonic plague from Medieval Europe. The vast majority of people will survive even if they do get the virus. And now they are pushing the Delta variant as being a serious threat, but it is even less lethal than the original virus.

It is a bald faced lie.

Cases are not rising.

Look at the graphs. The second one in particular.

Whoever is saying cases are rising in Cakifornia is lying, making it up.

All propaganda all the time.

“Cases rising” is really essentially meaningless at this point. Most of the people likely to suffer severe effects from the disease have already been vaccinated and are essentially immune. COVID-19, with its more infectious variants, is spreading mostly among the unvaccinated. The unvaccinated are mostly younger and healthier than average and don’t suffer severe effects from their infections. Their infections give them natural immunity adding further to our approach to herd immunity.

It’s over as a pandemic. NO MORE MASKS OR OTHER RESTRICTIONS!

Mortality rate is about 0.08%, similar to influenza.

Notice they are letting in several thousand of CCP bug positive cases from the border and no one is taking about a rise in cases they may be causing??

Exactly!

For the last three months everything has been about “cases”. I guess that means people that have the flu.

OK, why not report how many are in the hospital sick and how many are dying of the dreaded Delta Variant.

Crickets. . . it is all a steaming pile of BS.

The number of cases may be rising. How many were among the “new arrivals”, and how many are actually DYING of this delta variant?

Require the new immigrants to “mask up” immediately upon arriving in some “welcome house”, which will do nothing whatsoever to stop the spread, but these “new arrivals” will get a big dose of the ignominy that people who had already been here have had to endure for the past year and a half.

Better said....99.92% will survive.

The world just has a lot more people than the 1918/1919 pandemic.

Now stick in those who unknowingly had it and survived with no symptoms......the number is likely closer to 99.98%
