Coronavirus in the United States - news and thoughts

We took a day trip out to Montserrat, local subway to city train station, train out to country to visit the monastery. You have to take a cable car up to the main facility from the base and then can take another incline car to the top of the mountain that the monastery is built into. Everything you would expect from a church this old (founded 11th century, most recent rebuild between 19th and 20th centuries). I think there were 10 - 12 full size (5 x 12') stain glass windows like the one at the bott0m and each one was unique. It was a full 12 - 13 hour day but makes for a good day trip from Barcelona.

 

. If Trump said it, it is true. Even if if isnt

 

. Truth is anything that Trump tells his supporters to believe. Even if it isn’t true.

 

And as the Trump Administration and it’s lackeys, including state governors, push the false narrative of less testing again, science shows that asymptomatic people can suffer heart and other disease related conditions. Apparently because they are sick, but their symptoms are silent killers instead of immune fever and congestion reactions. The coopting of the CDC for political messaging is really dangerous.

time to call out all the doom and gloomers. remember in mid july to the end of july when the daily new cases were 65-75,000 a day, people here said that deaths lagged 4-6 weeks behind and in that time we were going to see a big upsurge in daily deaths?well guess what, since the start of august the highest daily death total was 1501, where are the 3 or 4,000 daily deaths people were saying were going to happen?also, these are the facts, daily new cases are going down, daily positive % is going down, hospitalizations are going down ,deaths are if not going down stabalizing, so i guess we are doing something right in this country after all.daily % of positive tests in july was 8.25%, for august it was 6.5%.at the end of july the national average of positive tests was 8.2%, after august it was down to 7.7%.so, are those who continue to predict doom and gloom going to admit they might have been wrong ?

 

Deaths more than doubled from early July.

 

They won't admit it. They will make up some BS about less testing or other crap excuse. Anything but admitting they were wrong. If you haven't figured that out yet then I can't help you. Coronabros gotta stay woke.

 

, you are, pardon the pun, dead wrong. from covid19 tracking, deaths on a daily basis in july were 816, in august 976, a upturn yes, but not nearly doubled,so,get your facts right.

 

Don't worry, he will move the goalposts before admitting he was wrong.

 

I didn't say all of July. I said early July, when the second spike started. If you look at the 7 day moving average, it was 521-524 from July 4-6. The peak was reached from July 31-August 5, when the deaths were between 1,154-1177. 1,154/524 = 2.2

Therefore, I was correct.

 

The irony considering I set the goalposts at early July and then the post you responded to moved them to the entire month of July, where cases increased.

 

there were only about 26,000 less daily tests in august than july, hardly,imo, a huge drop off in testing.

 

Deaths didn't triple or quadruple, and the doubling was only from early July numbers. And somehow, this is seen as a positive? Only in the world of people who want to put their head in the sand when it comes to COVID-19. If this makes me a coronabro, I'm proud to wear the label.

 

So you used a 3 day sample in July to a 6 day sample in August. 7 days isn't 3. Good effort though. Most non partisan people will see thru the BS.

 

They are both 7 day moving averages on multiple days (i.e., the 7 day average of deaths on July 4 is the average of deaths that happened on the 6 days prior to July 4 and July 4). Seriously, read the posts before responding. It would make the whole process move much faster.

 

no, you said more than doubled,now they are down to 976 a day, again, i ask, if deaths follow 4-6 weeks after infection, and the peak was as you say early july, that is almost 8 weeks ago, were is the huge upsurge in deaths?
