Arizona and Texas were doing fine a couple months ago.
Why is your death rate much higher than Florida then if you guys are taking these wonderful measures?
You have to look at the county level data. We have some very poor counties with really lousy health situations that skew the heck out of the numbers. You choose to look only at the aggregate data because a) you feel it feeds the narrative you want to convey and b) you’re lazy. It’s all on coronavirus.ohio.com.
And I notice you edited your post after I started responding. That’s bogus, dude.
7 weeks ago, Florida was at about 5k new cases per WEEK. 7 freaking weeks. Back in March it was less than 100 cases per week. Sobering.
Also, according to them, the positive rate was not even 5% back the week of 6/7. It's still above 10% now (12.87 the last reported week). Yea, lots more testing happening, but the increased cases comes with a higher overall rate, right along with it.
it's all that extra testing they're doing. If they wouldn't test so much, they'd have fewer cases.
And pneumonia deaths with some kind of odd flu deaths would be super high at this point too. No covid, though....
Since these are all preventable deaths, this is very criminal.
Wanted to comment that the response from Wisco last thread was great! Have no idea how to quote it or anything else after the downgrade but Great post man!
Their parents are losing their jobs and health insurance....
if this doesn't divorce these two, nothing will....
To date this board hasn't killed anyone. That we know of. But I was glad to see dx back.
