Kolek planning to go pro
Hey, that was my idea!
No. Based on data I saw in an article today that showed the pattern of increased cases, increased hospitalizations, and then what comes next. Follows same pattern that we saw in NY.I will try to find the article and post the link.
Here's the link, Frenn's:https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/07/second-coronavirus-death-surge/614122/
What’s to be made of these independent labs in Florida returning 100% results for full days of testing? To be fair there are some with 100% negative days as well but that’s a bit more likely given percentages. Spoke to a former business partner earlier today who relocated to Florida. His son, daughter in law and grandson are staying with them. The 4 of them plus his wife went to get tested. Checked in, registered, waited 2-3 hours and left without being tested. They got notified later that all 5 of them were positive I know testing labs are overburdened, and the delays are atrocious, and I’m not calling conspiracy, but WTF

I jumped the gun on today’s case numbers. Apparently the total now stands at more than 74,000 new cases today...several thousand higher than the previous record.This is not moving in the right direction.
At least they're being honest.The Washington Post @washingtonpostWhite House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on school reopenings: "The science should not stand in the way of this.” pic.twitter.com/w6H9DM0uTV
Deaths about to skyrocket.
73,388 new cases and 963 new deaths in the United StatesNOTE: Texas: Bexar County reported 5,501 cases today, 691 of which represent new cases, while 4,810 were backlogged, the result of "kinks in the communication process with the state, and that cases have been underreported in the past two weeks" according to reports citing San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg. Some of the 21 reported deaths were also backlogged [source] Worldometer has redistributed the 4,810 backlogged cases over the previous 14 days based on the existing pattern of Bexar County daily case increases over the same period
mark this post. what's skyrocket? like new york's nursing homes? you guys are a piece of work and then come up with a source-the atlantic? might as well have found it in doc fauci's interview with motha jones. this is all so new, but making predictions like global blah blah based on squat. when they don't even come close to becoming true, you just move along to the next "expert's" catastrophic prediction.
Out of curiosity, what do you consider to be a valid source?
hey jim, you forgetting something here? "The science should not stand in the way of this, but as Dr. Scott Atlas said -- I thought this was a good quote, 'Of course, we can do it. Everyone else in the Western world, our peer nations are doing it. We are the outlier here,'" McEnany said, quoting the former Stanford Medical Center neurology chief."The science is very clear on this. For example, you look at the JAMA pediatric study of 46 pediatric hospitals in North America that said the risk of critical illness from COVID is far less for children than the seasonal flu. The science is on our side here. We encourage localities and states to just simply follow the science. Open our schools," she continued
It's not just about death, it's about spread.Look at Texas. It has largely started with the young and has spread to the older and more vulnerable.
Attached is risk of death based off latest CDC figures.Of course death isn’t the only thing we need to worry about here, no one wants to get sick and there could be long term health issues as a result but let’s remember that this virus has become largely manageable with improved treatments and early detection.Don’t want to lose site of the forest folks.
It's interesting to see how some become so immune to needless deaths of their fellow humans.Every tiny percentage here represents thousands of your fellow Americans. That is the forest, folks. Try to be a little less flippant about it.
So is the plan for kids to go to school and stay there, in a bubble? Because if not, setting aside what you seem to deem as a minor inconvenience of tens of thousands dying and/or having serious organ damage, they are going to come back home each day and be disease vectors. See: Israel.
