So, the most cases come from the hardest stay at home lockdowns. “Science” at work!
BLACK FACE LIES!
gwt ready for scores of fake reports like this as democrat governors fight to retain their stranglehold on society- the msm will cry wolf over and over and over again- claiming tat cases are skyrocketing
... and so ... what?
It’s lying by omission, omission of the number of tests.
The media is so greedy and dishonest, always!
Wait, aren’t these the counties that have been locked down the most in VA?
One day jumps up and down are to be expected. If it starts going up at a rapid, non-stop rate, then there might be a problem.
The simple truth is more testing = more cases found. However, and what the Patch fake news omits is that with more cases of infection discovered it also means the infection/death ratio goes DOWN not up. It's all about taking advantage of the crisis and promoting the "vote by mail" subterfuge.
Here in CA, the new cases and deaths keep mounting, scaring the living crap out of everyone.
The problem as I see it, according to the daily CORONAVIRUS, WE’RE ALL GONNA CATCH IT AND DIE page in my newspaper, is when you break down the new numbers by county. 80-90% of the new cases are in those counties from Santa Barbara south to the Mexican border and east to the Nevada border, with Los Angeles County taking the brunt of it. In the SF area, we are seeing maybe 10 or 20 per day. And when you go to the north and east of the state, they are reporting 1 or 2 per day.
Worse yet, the screaming headlines on the top of the page, keep talking about the “total cases”, not showing that 80% of those cases are from February and March, and the only thing being flattened now is the economy worldwide.
But, “orange man bad”!
Has testing also seen a recent increase? This report is useless without that information.
More hype to keep VA locked up. Northam set June 10 as the end of lockdown. Is he trying to extend it?
VA has had 1208 deaths and 38,000 cases. Half of the deaths were in nursing homes. VA should be opening up now. GA has had more deaths and cases. It is seeing a decline in hospitalizations and deaths.
The number of new cases should not be the metric. Increased testing will capture more asymptomatic cases. Hospitalizations should be the metric.
The “surge” in COVID cases is a function of testing not necessarily that more people are getting the virus. The majority people with the virus have no symptoms and are only identified by testing. Testing more people just identifies people who have the virus already not necessarily new cases.
We had the most tests weve done. Percent positives actually dropped.
And the northern va numbers arent bad as a percentage of population.
But i like to point out that most of virginia reopened and is dung great. Nova did not, and is doing poorly. Clearly the lockdown is the problem.
Biggest jump in test results....
If enough of the NE Virginiacs die, Trump will win VA. Keep ‘em locked down, Blackface.
THIS IS BS!!!
How many nursing homes did they “attack?”
We have a relative in Northern Virginia who has lost touch with reality during this lockdown. Blames Trump for everything that has ever gone wrong in the world, hates every state that ever voted for Trump. The social media posts are completely hateful and insane. I have told them to get help but have been ignored it seems. I will never feel comfortable around this person again although I have known them since birth.
So the Virginia Dept. of Health is FINALLY going to give us northern Virginians a look at where the virus is doing the most harm. How white of them. It’s only been three months since this epidemic really started here and like Sgt. Schulz of “Hogan’s Heroes”, the VDH says “I know nothing”.
I’d like to know where virus clusters exist in northern Virginia so that can avoid those areas if necessary (are they mainly hospitals?) I’m due for radiation treatment for post-pancreatic cancer surgery and it would be nice if my hospital is safe to go to (In my case, the physical separation of buildings by function increases the safety distances between where I would be and where the main hospital building it).
Now, since nearly everything in northern Virginia is closed to the public or open on a extremely limited use basis, I want to know the “specifics” of where are greatest threats and losses have been.
However, northern Virginia, being run and ruined by Democrat liberals and newly elected Marxist city/county council reps and State Assembly wackos, the chances of us getting an honest appraisal of the situation is problematically.
After all, our great Baby-Killing Advocate of a Governor, Ralph “Dr. Mengele” Northam violates his own orders whenever he wants to, including NOT wearing a mask while meeting the public and spending a lot of time at one of his homes in Manteo, NC (a summer home of some type since he does have, as required by law, an official home residence in Virginia. But, why stay with the sick peasants and workers when he can lounge away in guarded safety in Manteo. After all, he is a Democrat Party elitist like former Va. Gov. Terry The Thug McAuliffe and the rules don’t apply to them.
The man is a hypocrite, a fool, an incompetent, an abortionist advocate of killing babies at or immediately after birth, and a Democrat. He’s a walking epidemic of leftist Marxist lunacy and he intends to hurt Virginia as much as possible and then keep the remnants in the hands of the new emerging Marxist/progressive/Green alliance that has come out of the woodwork like red termites, thanks, in part, to George Soros money, and reportedly that of Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomburg.
A once very liveable and rational state has begun its long descent into the Democrat/Marxist insanity that is destroying California, Illinois, and parts of Washington State, Oregon, New York, New Jersey (insanity is a prerequisite for any Democrat running for a major office there), and parts of Texas (Houston, Austin, some of Dallas).
