This statistic is meaningless without info on recovery rates, asymptomatic rates, which demographic is being affected, and death rates, if any.

Also, how many tests were done daily then versus now.

How many are sick or asymptomatic.

We’re testing hundreds at our clinic each week. We’re getting maybe a half dozen or so positive. NONE, zero, zilch are very sick if at all.

I’ll wager just about everyone in the US has been exposed by now. Big deal.

I’m looking at hospitalizations and deaths. Neither are moving much. There was a hundred car line in Pensacola yesterday at a testing site. The numbers are going to up.

Correct. It’s all just bullshit fear-mongering. They have one goal - defeat Trump at any cost. Tank the economy, keep the people oppressed and miserable, force mail-in voting across the country to make the vote fraud easier to pull off.

Precisely!

The more you test, the more cases you uncover. The US is more efficient than other countries in data collection, which is causing the panic headlines!

And who they are testing and why.

How many are false positives? The PGA tour is testing all players and caddies several times each week. One who tested positive last week had to withdraw. After he had two negative tests 24 hours apart, he is back playing this week.

Most people who test positive stay home quarantined. They probably do not have access to several subsequent tests as to professional golfers.

My guess - loads of asymptomatic people with COVID are now going to hospitals for other reasons (backlog of everything NOT COVID) and find they’re testing positive.

...so they’re a “COVID hospitalization”, which is complete BS. Unless death rates climb it is irrelevant and probably demonstrating that we’re well on the way to herd immunity. If we’re not putting them into NURSING HOMES then we’ll probably not see a climbing death rate.

"This statistic is meaningless without info on recovery rates, asymptomatic rates, which demographic is being affected, and death rates, if any."

I agree.

Also, aren’t medical personnel able to test more people every day? The more people they are able to test in a day, the more people with COVID-19 they’re going to find.

In fact, hypothetically speaking, every person on earth would have to be tested every day for accurate analysis. Corrections, insights welcome.

Also, people getting killed in car accidents, for example, are recorded as dying from COVID-19 if it is found in their bodies.

Finally some conservatives are probably accurately predicting that pandemic will end the day after election day when PDJT is reelected.

In other words, all this pandemic fuss is arguably because elite, deep state Democrats who broke the law trying to keep PDJT from lawfully winning Oval Office want to stay out of jail. Anybody but Trump would let them off the hook.

I agree and since everyone tested is coming back positive it makes this number even more meaningless. It's a scam, a ruse, pure BS.

Nurses have been sending in clean swabs that come back positive so these tests are all meaningless.

Complete information does not help fuel panic. And getting people in a panicked state is what the media wants.

Exactly. This can't be said enough.

Think of how dumbed down the American public has to be to not see this immediately?

Exactly just more bullshit scare tactics, infectious or simply antibodies from an asymptomatic infection the person has recovered from. The reason they don’t differentiate is because the truth doesn’t fit the agenda.
