One thing I think we can agree on is that, the so called shutdowns were not very effective. It made no sense you could not get a haircut here but there were 200 people in Lowes.

That monument is an impressive likeness of someone who lives here! Just needs a burrito. 😊

Almost 9,000 new cases today in Florida.  They did close down all bars in the state.  I am starting work very soon and am very worried.

Sister came home today to tell me the second coworker so sick they are now in the hospital in the span of a day. Third coworker knowingly and willingly came to work with a high fever (contrary to policy) after being in close contact with the second and REFUSED to leave the office exposing my sister and everyone else including high-risk patients. My sister is isolating herself as best she can, but we are all very worried now. I wish I could report this person.

Yeah to the Texas news, gracias LL ma'am.

 

"La Commandante" (clueless County Judge over Houston, swept into office during the Beeto* insanity) just ordered Code Red despite the entire Texas Medical Center's leadership saying that the ICU crunch is not an issue.

The media's doing their best to play down this fact.. implementation of hysteria is clearly a political device with the aim of use against Trump for the 2020 election.

So the cases are expanding in some states that reopened as well as some states under more restrictive orders.  How is that explained?

Don't tell anyone I told you, but a couple of months ago, it was discovered that there were MANY more cases than were being tested that were asymptomatic.   Now, we are testing more.  You can draw your own conclusions.

How many new deaths?  39?

Well we have beat it to death and its well articulated and basic science. Its a fact that the rise in new caes far out paces the rise in new tests  I posted a link in another thread.  So lets throw out the its all about more testing narrative. Postive rates have doubled in many states.

 

Now why is the death toll not skyrocketing yet.

 

1. Corona Virus is not an instant death sentence.  Symptoms can take time to develop.  Also a person can remain in ICU for weeks, so naturally deaths are going to lag behind postives.

 

2. The demographic of cases is shifting younger. Although 2 -17 year olds have dies in fla recently. 

 

3. We have developed much more effective protocols to treat the virus.

 

Do you think the we are being lied to about the numbers? Do you not think cases are not increasing. ?

45,000 diagnoses

700 deaths

17,000 recoveries

Someone else please do the math (ain't gonna try THAT again here).

Hmm, 0.01 to 0.02% fatality rate using my math skills.

This. FR is going to plummet as cases rise, we've gotten much better at fighting the virus, the inflammatory response it provokes, etc. 

 

The hysteria has always been overblown, and thankfully states like Texas utilized a measured response rather than doing what the left, media, etc. wanted in shutting everything down again. The reopening will continue. Texas need to make sure to be sensible, because we know these people are going to try this again when back-to-school colds and flu season ramp up.
