This nullifies the left claiming our high number of cases is due to Trump’s indifference.

No matter what precautions, everyone gets a second wave with more testing

and WHO is sick?....they're only finding these cases because they're testing anyone and every one who has contact with a person who has covid...

covid is a virus....its not deadly for almost all populations except the folks that are already diseased....

But, but, we were told to me more like Europe and joyfully accept our masking and cower in place orders.

Let’s see hospitalizations and how serious....and deaths. Testing itself is “driven” for a designated purpose.

Because of course there is vastly more testing now.

There is no way to compare “cases” of March/April vs September.

1 percent of hospitalizations are covid ...we can handle that. This truly is a conspiracy and the covid cowards among us are fueling its effectiveness. Truly awful times.

Mexico Brazil Peru Ecuador got a lot of Covid and many deaths, on the Euro-US scale.

Some countries are still curiously not hit yet.

Overall it seems that lockdowns and etc just delay the progress of Covid. It will come, eventually, whatever we do.

Imagine a deadly virus you have to be tested for in order to know if you have it.

When has that ever happened?
