Likely the most significant factor in shutting down the country the first time. They out and out lied, I posted it the same day the Surgeon General said it. I said that it might be the factor in losing the Presidency.

    I do agree with the author that Trump giving up the anti-mask take may help for the election. Will it be enough? Dunno.
    They definitely identified 2 different strains, but I've yet to see reports/stats on how the infections/deaths are different between them. The one is even more contagious they say.

    Yup, I disagreed with the AG from day one and said I KNOW they work as simply common sense and studies show it to be so. You and I both figured from day one that it was about the lack of supplies. Then they spoke of us being too dumb to wear them properly. (I see what they mean, many ARE too stupid to wear a simple mask! ) Excuses and lies but no truth. And no doubt, deaths could have been avoided with both an appropriate supply and the truth. Nursing home deaths were a HUGE factor in deaths, and easily should have been avoided, also with common sense alone. Subways remaining open in NYC only added to infections and deaths. Leaders shutting certain folks down and not others, and confusing the crap out of the public and everyone then responding differently and many fighting about the masks decisions. SO SO much could have been avoided, especially in the beginning and especially by leaders in NY/NJ - where you see the mortality rate so much higher than the rest of the nation. Believe it or not, NJ was worse than NY in that department. And believe it or not again, CT was even worse than NJ!! And where did the first major outbreak start? They had no idea and were clueless.

    Still waiting on the west coast states to update in various places for today.

    Until then, a few things to look at from a national level instead of each state.

    Yesterday, really the day before the way they report, with some of yesterday included... Yesterday there were 59,017 new confirmed cases and 428 deaths. At least that's a very small number, but daily it fluctuates.

    Another stat that had my eyebrows raised, the level of testing. I remember in the beginning when they were so hard to get and the daily testing numbers were tiny. Now the average tests per day is 666,622 total around the country. Now over 40 million total tests given. That's a huge difference.

    Well, as long as I'm waiting today, but I don't think these can be all updated properly yet. Seems low for the deaths and infections in comparison. But the national total looks right. So I dunno yet, tomorrow will show more.

    The downward trend of overall mortality rates continues. Except in Arizona where it went back up a few notches. More deaths there in spurts this week, and overall as a state their tests per day are lower, and spurts of even lower days. Let's hope and pray for those all getting nailed now, as in Kath in Arizona, I think BD is in Cali? Gunny in Texas, My Dad is in Florida... lots of concerns. Hopefully things get better and the increase in deaths will go back down. Same with Texas and over 100 deaths again and Florida with 132.

    Missed a day but I did get the numbers last evening. So both these lists are for yesterday and then today.

    Texas - 1.67% 1.41 1.39 1.35 1.34 1.30 1.28 1.27 1.24 1.24 1.19 1.20 1.20
    Arizona - 2.3% 2.01 1.97 1.85 1.86 1.83 1.83 1.80 1.78 1.79 1.82 1.85 1.85
    California - 2.83% 2.53 2.51 2.40 2.36 2.31 2.29 2.26 2.20 2.11 2.08 2.07
    Florida - 2.55% 2.06 1.94 1.86 1.83 1.79 1.79 1.73 1.68 1.57 1.51 1.49 1.48
    Georgia - 3.79% 3.24 3.15 2.99 2.99 2.96 2.88 2.81 2.65 2.61 2.46 2.41 2.38
    Illinois - 4.8% 4.82 4.80 4.76 4.76 4.75 4.86 4.85 4.80 4.78 4.73 4.70 4.68

    And this rate dropping over time also dropped the overall death rate, even if crudely calculated. The MSM doesn't want to address either of these dropping rates, instead choosing to spend their time on the rising infection numbers in some states, and their individual numbers.

    It's not to diminish a single life in a single state, but there are differences. Thousand of deaths and then hundreds of deaths. Of course population plays the major part there. Hopefully the states with rising deaths can get a grasp and they will go back down. But thank God those numbers aren't collectively in the thousands to 4,000+ like they once were. Thank NY and NJ for royally screwing up many things on this one.

    I think the worst part is the length, and not having any idea when this may stop and where it may go. No vaccine in sight yet. But with the flu at like .01-.03 - and this running loose at .04? But the flu stops, and has a vaccine, and ways to work with it and beat it.

    The results today, but a few states have barely updated. The difference in total cases compared to yesterday don't add up either, not along with the 78k cases. Oh well, best we have.

    @jimnyc have you seen this? Center for Public Integrity is left-wing biased, but it appears to be on the behest of the task force.

    White House task force report recommends 18 states should roll back reopening

    By: Scripps NationalPosted at 9:33 AM, Jul 17, 2020 and last updated 8:41 AM, Jul 17, 2020
    An unpublished report that was obtained by the nonprofit newsroom Center for Public Integrity, prepared for the White House Coronavirus Task Force, recommends that 18 states consider rolling back reopening.


    The 359-page document detailed the states as a "red zone" because they had more than 100 new cases per 100,000 population last week.

    The 359-page document detailed the states as a "red zone" because they had more than 100 new cases per 100,000 population last week.


    The report recommends that states should have citizens wear a mask at all times, practice social distancing, states should close all bars and gyms, and limit social gatherings to 10 people.


    The following states should consider scaling back reopening plans, according to CPI:


    Alabama
    Arkansas
    Arizona
    California
    Florida
    Georgia
    Iowa
    Idaho
    Kansas
    Louisiana
    Mississippi

    Nevada
    Oklahoma
    South Carolina
    Tennessee
    Texas
    Utah

    And this task force apparently updates weekly and sends this out to governors. Many governors are not taking all kinds of recommendations, and who will get blamed? We all know that answer.

    And nope, I had not seen this one, Kath! Whoever is responsible for much of it, I agree with them mostly.

    The masks are severely underestimated IMO, and many infections can be stopped by folks simply wearing them. Limiting gatherings in many ways is appropriate, and location/state and setup can change that. Indoor gathering in tight spaces should obviously be avoided. Bars and gyms and places where people will be close together and often without a mask or other protection, should also limit or change things depending on the state/location and how bad things are.

    And when people see lowering mortality rates and death rates and comparisons, it for the appropriate reasons: different strains? Worse outbreak? Different ways of handling? So many questions.

    But that doesn't change the fact that these states and locations are all suffering badly depending on when they get hit with this. A much larger population and density should expect to see larger numbers. States with less of those may see less total deaths in comparison, but the infections, hospitalizations and ICU units and then the deaths, all are similar when you compare them basically. Mostly anyway.

    What makes me wonder with this, is if this is left wing biased, and is sent out to all the governors, and still not much followed. While all of the reality of the numbers are harsh and real - there is also abuse happening in many ways, IMO.

    To me it's all still common sense. This thing is going to remain a problem in our lives until a vaccine comes out. So as long as that be the case, why not take some easy precautions to help avoiding it? Whether wearing a mask, gloves, using disinfectant or soap and water. And simply avoid certain places and situations for now. And if everyone followed suit, we could all minimize the thing the best we can until the medical community finds a vaccine.

    The downward trend on the mortality rate continues around the nation as a whole. But it's evening out in quite a few of the states being hit hard.

    @jimnyc

    I think there's more going on, as morgue overloads are pointing to:

    https://www.theatlantic.com/health/a...-surge/614122/

    ...

    In the United States, the rising severity of the current moment was obscured for several weeks by the downward drift of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths resulting from the spring outbreak in northeastern states. Even though deaths have been rising in the hardest-hit states of the Sun Belt surge, falling deaths in the Northeast disguised the trend.

    More less what I've been saying and pointing out. While places comparatively with numbers may not scream the same as NY, NY morgue's are a little bigger and a lot more of them. For example, NY on bad days may have had let's say 92% filled... and now other places may very well see similar numbers with overloads in the morgues and ICU units, but the numbers only don't add up the same due to the population and density. It wouldn't make sense for a smaller state with more rural areas to achieve the same numbers.

    So the damage done to the communities, and overloads at hospitals, and overworked nurses and doctors, and loaded morgues... all work out, proportionately speaking.

    That's why I prefaced many things in the past with not to diminish things, things aren't the same in areas, so many reasons as to why they look different, and back to the population and density again. And of course shows and explains why 500-900+ deaths today, and 2400-4000 back in April/March and such are hitting various areas in the same manner.

    I knew/know that some likely see it as diminishing what is happening anyway, but of course was never my intent. I tried my best to explain why the number differences, and what I thought made up for those differences. But at the same time, showing lower overall rates and such, to include the latest realities - of the younger getting more sick and other things that also may account for the rising infections and not as many total deaths.

    And then I do think strains and areas handling differently also made a difference. Look what happened in NY, and now unfortunately California is slowly catching up on those infections, but the deaths are not nearly similar. But I do believe that any individual state vs state example like that, will introduce many many reasons as to why they are different.

    Default Gotta share this...it's absolutely true.

    My wife and I were at an (unnamed) hospital yesterday morning for her Stress Test following her last Stroke.

    One of the young nurses there, talking to her told my wife the hospital has been swamped in the ER and waiting area's because...(Didn't make this up) (as the nurse said) Lately, they have all been instructed to label ALL DEATHS...no matter what the cause...AS CORONA VIRUS related.

    This would explain WHY THE NUMBERS KEEP INCREASING across the nation. EVERY DEATH, in reality IS NOT caused by the virus. Thousands die every day from accidents, overdoses, murders and natural causes. And we all know that. But the Hospital staff knows...CLAIMING COVID19 will get them MORE FUNDING from the Govt...WITHOUT QUESTION.

    SOCIALISM AT IT'S FINEST...Huh?
    I may be older than most. I may say things not everybody will like.
    But despite all of that. I will never lower myself to the level of Liars, Haters, Cheats, and Hypocrites.
