Europe cases are going up, India in big trouble.

alumni94

Cases are going up in Europe; Spain, France and Germany.

Brazil and India have more deaths (India looks to be in trouble).

What is the media going to do when the USA is not the leader in deaths and cases because we are actually doing a good job with COVID?

The media will lie. Cases going up is great news as long as hospitalizations and deaths are flat.

Have a ways to go for the chicom crud to catch up with the 1958 Asian Flu. And that's with massive cheating on the chicom crud deaths.

This just shows that Trump has mishandled our response to the virus.

That statement is 100x funnier than it appears at first glance. Literally dripping buckets of irony.

Europe handled it right though. That’s what I was hearing.

RaceBannon

China was even better

I’m hearing Sweden really screwed it up, but just take my word on it, don’t look into it.

Example of how the media spins


USA is not the “worst affected country”.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/07/worldwide-coronavirus-death-toll-nears-600000-live-updates-200718232028622.html

It’s barely in the top 10.

the narrative has been set

I will bet that before the cock crows three times @insinceredawg or @HHusky will be here denying science again with "cases"

We should follow China has they have had less than 10 deaths since mid April. Clearly they got it figured out.

Take this with a grain of salt as it was screenshot of a statement made on Facebook.

Lady says her husband gets COVID, work tells him to stay home until he tests negative twice in a row over x number of days.

He starts feeling better and goes for test. Still positive. Does it again, same result.

The county counted his 3 positive results as 3 individual cases.

This could be a one time thing, small rural county mistake but it’s government we’re talking about here so if true, I wouldn’t be surprised this kinda thing is happening all over the country.

It is, I posted about this a couple weeks ago. A case doesn't equal a person. Cases is slippery slope of data.

Italy and Sweeden took far different approaches to the virus, yet the deaths per million are about the same. Sweeden has arrived at heard immunity without a lock down of its economy.

Now imagine how often someone in the hospital is tested, probably every other day? Until they test negative twice?

Cases are real, so don’t twist

Who would have guessed after super long lock downs in Europe that they would be seeing a rise in cases when they reopened? Who would have guessed that? What country opened back up earlier than Europe, took a bunch of shit and saw a rise in cases that is starting to go down now? Hmm. Weird. There was another country out there that didn’t really close at all, got a TON of shit for it, and they seem to be almost out the other side of this thing. Hmm. Seems like all the predictions a bunch of hard asses on a football fan bored were saying based on numbers, math and available internet data were right. Hmm. Grim.

Some of the testing has a significant false positive rate. Any follow up test that shows negative for the chicom crud doesn't negate the original reporting of a positive case.

Realize that the second the 2020 season ends, the 2021 season begins, which will be grim grim grim.

Sources say the grimmest of all years unless Biden wins and the Democrats take the Senate and keep the House.
