First, I thought I read the test didn't work and was recalled is that true? Are there other test methods?

Second, 48% of Florida's total population has been fully vaxxed. How are the percentages reflected in the testing?

The state’s peak happened in mid-August 2020, when 1,266 people died over a seven-day period.

There appears to be about 1% mortality with 20,000 cases a day. So 200 deaths a day is in the tea leaves. However the wild card is Delta. In the UK the deaths from Delta are 1 in 500. UK is 99% Delta. Florida was 63% Delta a couple of days ago: https://news.miami.edu/stories/2021/07/new-evidence-shows-the-covid-19-delta-variant-rapidly-rising.html That article says “It’s obvious to me we will be at 80 to 90 percent Delta by next week,” said Andrews, who is also vice chief of pathology for Jackson Health System."

Let's hope so, and that it goes further, to 99% like the UK.

Needs to raise the numbers? Just ship in more infected border jumpers.

Forget the cases, they have always been red herrings. How many people are dying? Not many at all.

The CDC has already admitted that their PCR test was totally in accurate and useless. So therefore the official COVID case count and deaths is useless.

America has been conned.

"I thought I read the test didn't work and was recalled is that true? Are there other test methods?"

There are many different tests which all work off the same basic principles. What you read was that the CDC is withdrawing their Emergency Use Authorization for the test originally created by the CDC for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in an effort to get all testing moved to other test procedures that look for multiple potential causes of symptoms at the same time. So rather than someone getting a COVID-19 test, waiting 2-3 days for results, and losing valuable time if it's actually some other illness causing their symptoms, CDC wants everyone doing testing that will look at multiple causes and determine which it is. So if you actually have the flu, you don't wait a couple days for COVID-19 testing, then go get flu testing a day or two after, then get results from that whenever they come, and you're now 4 or 5 days in potentially before you know what you could have known the day after the first test.

There is no test for the “delta variant” other than a visual identification with an electron microscope. They are just making the number attributed to the variant up, because there is no way that 21,000 individual cases were positively identified.

Honestly I’m just not buying it. I have not heard even a cough at the grocery store in over a year. Not even a sniffle. And boy do I look for it.

Who. Cares.

Deaths are the same or less. The "cases" will go down again in a couple of weeks. Then they'll report somewhere else.

The emergency approval to use the PCR test has been rescinded, but for some reason, the CDC is still allowing the test to be used until December 31st. It makes no sense at all.

One question: Is Ivermectin effective against the Delta variant?

Florida is 26th in terms of per Capita deaths due to the virus.

They should just report the number of cases times 10%. That is how the Democrats count votes.

They are still using it (non CDC PCR test) and testing at 40 cycles which will give almost all false positives. Most are forced to take the test by employers, etc. Results would be almost no positives if they only tested persons with symptoms and used blood tests.

Just watched him on Judge Jeanine; I’m going to believe him over Yahoo. And as usual, this “report” doesn’t say how many of those testing positive have zero symptoms.

Ok, five days out from my trip to crowded places in Florida without a vaccine or mask. No symptoms yet. Or maybe I have died and FR is still available in the afterlife.
