Good point! We should Tariff the hell out of foreign oil. Let them burn some in their engines as they go elsewhere.

"Someone noted yesterday if jeans and undies cannot contain a fart how is a piece of material going to contain a virus."

Because a "fart" is gaseous, but the ejecta containing the virus are small liquid droplets. "If" a covid carrier and a vulnerable person are within 6ft, probability of contamination transmission is 90%. "If" the carrier has a mask, the probability of transmission drops to 3.5%. "If" BOTH have masks, the probability of transmission drops to 1%. WEAR THE DAMNED MASKS!!!!!

thanks for the continued tremendous effort.

Huge jump in recoveries in U.S. Another good sign.

We export more crude oil and the derived products than we import.

One area we do need to impose tariffs is ‘legal’ drugs and medical supplies. Our imports of medical stuff far exceeds our exports.

MAGAA-—Make America Great Again Again by moving medical stuff factories back to America.

Thank you for preparing these great tables and charts. I would like to offer my opinion on Sweden. I think all of us have lost sight of the fact that flattening the curve did not mean reducing the number of cases, but spreading them out over time so as not to overwhelm the system. The goal was to reach herd immunity or develop a vaccine to reduce the number of cases. In this regard, Sweden may be getting their cases out of the way more quickly than neighboring nations and that is why their numbers per million are higher. We will only know this in the end if their percentage of infections and death or equal to those other nations.

I think Doughty one is who you meant to post to.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Let’s compare Sweden and Germany.

Germany 1851 cases per million-—69 deaths per million
Sweden 1800 cases per million-—217 deaths per million

I am hoping it works out ok in Sweden as I have many family and friends living there.

But if I were a resident in Europe right now, I would feel much safer in Germany.

Yes, at over 26,400, it was nearly double the previous
high for any day so far. (over 13,800)

We have at least 10k so far today. I think yesterday was
affected by the Friday dump situation, but I’ll take it.

Another factor here is that the recoveries are touted to
be under-reported, so any good numbers there are special.

Thanks for your comments.
