newsweek ^ | 08/06/2020 | Jason Lemon

Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx, two key members of the White House coronavirus task force, have warned nine major cities across the country over their high COVID-19 testing positivity rates.

Birx, coordinator of the White House task force, first raised concerns about the high positivity rates in Atlanta; Baltimore; Boston; Chicago; Detroit; Kansas City, Missouri; Portland, Oregon; Omaha, Nebraska; and Washington, D.C.; in a Wednesday call with state and local officials. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), was asked about the remarks in an interview with CNN on Thursday morning, and he explained that the test positivity rate is "a pretty good predictor" or "indicator" that surges in new infections are coming.

Let's Face the Music and Dance
Let's Face the Music and Dance
Song by Nat King Cole

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight
And music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Another area that Fauci and Birx called out on Wednesday is California’s Central Valley, where I live. It also leans right politically. They’re giving Newsom cover to put more restrictions on our region than the rest of the state. Punishment for not being as woke as the Bay Area.

We’ll all have it before it’s done. Testing shows more “cases”, but not more sickness. Kids went back to school in most of GA today. Not Fulton county though.

Decimate means reduce by 10 %. Decimate millions would be a death rate of 10%. In the whole world there are 20 million cases according to Newsbreak which is Bloomberg, but the deaths worldwide are under 800,000. You would have to have 2 million dead worldwide to be able to correctly use the word Decimate. It fails the scare test.

It appears that Dr. Tony is angling to either host his own reality show or go on the road with The Rockettes.

Anyone know what all these cities have in common? C'mon, it's not hard to figure out!

His first test was to screen him before meeting with President Trump. It was a quick-results test which is notable for false positives. The second was a more reliable test that takes a little longer.

He needs to find himself a vaccine for yearning media attention, he sure caught that bug.
