Muh Muh Muh My Corona (virus)

I thought the standard was going to be 2 week decline in something or other. Not sure if it was deaths or new cases or what, but it had to be sustained for 2 weeks.

 

More tests = more cases.

 

Another one of Impeachment's Greatest Hits: If the administration is doing as great a job as Trump says, let the good doctor speak.

 

those are democrat tests the blue check means you have coronavirus and that you want things to be worse for our president

Excellent question. Why this projection/study?
Normally, my first guess would be that it's a slow news day. But it isn't. You have Biden's statement and the emergency approval of a new drug. Curious to see if they're alone in leading with this.

 

Interesting legal question. Why wouldn't Massachusetts residents be banned as well? Mass has a higher total case count, a total case count per 100K residents, etc. Michigan folks can rent and their state's mortality rate is the highest in the country. Just seems a bit arbitrary.

 

We’ll be reading his obituary in about 5-6 weeks. Karma.

 

Yep. Georgia's positive-test rate appears to be lower today than yesterday. But with them, you never know. They seem to change their reporting protocols all the time.

 

At a guess, it's because there's been a bit of a "It's May! We made it! Let's go to the beach/go show those libs/go shopping!".

 

When the Governor of California, acting on the best public health information he has available, opens the beaches, then open they are. I mean, states and the federal government have a panoply of laws that however imperfectly are there to guide their governments in extraordinary catastrophes. If some fuckheads don't like that they can't go to the beach, well, maybe they don't like that they have to stop for red lights either, but they'd better. As for your first question, the idea is not just to flatten the curve so that hospitals aren't overwhelmed, that's step one. The goal is to reduce transmissions to the point where the virus peters out for lack of new cases. Taiwan's done it. South Korea's done it. Of all freakin' countries in the world, Greece has done it. If the US fails it will only be our society is so broken we let loudmouth assholes who represent maybe 20 percent of the population get treated as if their majority instead of being ignored or slapped down hard the way they would if they weren't white assholes.
