What would you recommend? there is nothing to recommend now lol. America should have been on this from the start and enforced mask usage and strict lockdowns. we should have created a tracing system like south korea/germany/singapore did. instead our president came out and said "everything will be fine by Easter" and look what happened... 12 minutes ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: ...good luck getting an answer.....they always attack and NEVER defend....asked the same question many times, adding if they could insert THEIR pick to replace Trump as the one to be leading the pandemic fight, the answer is....."crickets"......my expectation......CONSTRUCTIVE vs DESTRUCTIVE dialogue......YOU decide which one does NOT exist in their vocabulary (COUGH)..... Trump and his staff have handled this virus so poorly this question almost becomes pointless because anyone would have done a better job, literally anyone, republic or democrat. They would not have called the virus a hoax in February and played it off like it was a joke. Edited July 16, 2020 by Penfield45 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Pandemic should be over. So the pandemic won't be. Because we are home to some of the dumbest people on the face of the earth that dont understand data, statistics, logic, reason, math, economics, and common sense.

Dante Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Every day I'm more amazed how stupid the general population is.

Magox Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 More of what we were talking about. —— A study led by the La Jolla Institute detected T cells that reacted to SARS-CoV-2 in about half of stored blood samples collected between 2015 and 2018, suggesting that the immune system cells developed after previous infection with circulating common cold coronaviruses, and that they might help protect against the new virus. "It is a potentially encouraging piece of evidence," Wherry said. ——- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 7 hours ago, shoshin said: FL Today: 14,000 new cases 156 deaths Watching to see signs of it slowing at all compared to AZ. Magox had some county data that looked like some places had slowing. Overall, the state is not. Haven’t gotten a chance to look into it but I do know that it was a data dump day of cases that were accumulated over the past 3-4 days. I read it was a rather large data dump. Percent positive rate is lower this week than last so I’m guessing that prevalency is beginning it’s crest. Still a ways to go, Texas, Arizona and California as a whole all seem ahead of Florida. But aside from Arizona, those three states are so large and the populations are somewhat spread out in different population zones, my hunch is that they won’t have it crushed and burnout like NY but will most likely trend lower on a less steep decline as what we saw with NY. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoshin Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) FWIW, Worldometer had yesterday at 1001 deaths. Deaths are up 50% in the last 8 days. Bounced off the artificial 4th-of-July-assisted low of 515 that no one predicted (!) quickly. Edited July 16, 2020 by shoshin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says this in the article and we know this already. Unless you manage to call the funeral a protest against systemic racism you might have to wait to bury a loved one.

Big Blitz Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 1100 cases in NY today. 2nd most since June 6. To the sane, this is not a problem. To the sane we know there is absolutely nothing we can do about "cases!" unless you want no life for the next 6-12 months. And get the entire world from India to Russia to Chile to all do the same thing. But to the insane like Cuomo, NY will be back in their ridiculous phase 2 by the end of the month.

Can’t wait for all the smarmy NYers who have been shaming the red states to explain the inevitable resurgence. “It’s the rural white NYers who may or may not have voted R in their lifetime.

What's the positive test rate in NY as they may have increased testing. At it's apex it was about 10k cases per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
