I posted about this a few days back.  Someone was claiming 173 deaths for 7/23 around noon on that date.  Today, the death toll for 7/23 remains at 54.  

 

The claims are all over the place, and it's hard to know what is correct.  The easiest thing to do is believe the worst possible scenario I guess.  

 

And as for the subject of false positives, and those here mocking my statements as untrue, just talked to a friend in Nashville about her experience... she got a letter from the TN DOH proclaiming her test results as negative.  Great news from the DOH, eh?  Turns out she never got tested.  But some lab near her sure did turn in her info as if she did.  I wonder if said lab will also get paid for her "test"?

Per our last Conversation the 54 for  is now up to 119.

So I found myself spending some time in a large South Florida ER yesterday and again this AM. (Yes I am fine). However both days when I walked in there were exactly 0 people waiting in line at the ER. Hospital was mostly empty, and after speaking with some nurses and doctors they all said they were no more busy than usual. Maybe even less so and the service was outstanding. Said they had actually reconfigured the hospital back to normal operations after turning an entire floor into a COVID triage back in March. Mask were required while walking in the halls but not in the rooms. They said they had minimal hospitalizations that lasted longer than a day or two due to COVID that typically was just administering fluids.

I’m in a hospital in Orlando (celebration) and have experienced the same. When inquiring with the doctor and a nurse, they both verified operations are essentially normal with no dedicated floor to Covid patients. Masks are required as well as other nuisances, but that's about it.

From watching other dashboards the past few months, 4 weeks seems to garner the largest changes in counts, so there is still time.  I'm sure counts will be changing at least a little for several months all over the world.  

 

Also, if I stop posting in the next 12 hours, it was a hurricane what got me, NOT covid.
