Interesting. I know people testing positive 6 to 8 weeks later. Of course w single target pos molecular testing.

Looks like they’re running about 5 deaths per day, with a population of 3.3 million.

That’ll likely backfire as dems will be scared away in greater numbers.

Absolutely!

I live in UT. Most are going about their lives. There are some who wear masks (some...all of the time seemingly). This is pure BS and distortion of reality. None of my friends/associates know anyone who has had wuhan virus...let alone died of wuhan virus. There is no depth to which the leftists/TDS-sufferers will not go. We have pro-Trump rallies all over the state. There are Trump flags flying. This is your typical lefty lunacy.

Most national chains have mask mandates, perpetuating the hysteria. Unfortunately we do not have a mom & pop grocery store within 100 miles.

I have not worn a mask to the grocery store yet. The employees do not harass me, but I have encountered “concerned” shoppers.

Our county is huge, but we have had less that ten deaths. Hopefully people will wake up and reject the maskerade.

“Is your current Gov Herbert a total RINO??

Is he likely in on this BS lie?”

Hebert is a real humanitarian. He wants to bring in a bunch of refugees. Like the guy who raped, murdered, burned, and buried a college student/escort a year or two ago.

It is a prediction and it ignores how “case” numbers have already been going up, but hospitalizations and deaths have not.

Why? Testing is way up, and with it “positive” tests, which get reported as a “case”, yet more of these cases are among younger folks who are getting out and among the younger folks with no comorbidity you get more asymptomatic and mild cases and fewer cases needing hospitalizations.

Expect an increase in hospitalizations but not an overwhelming one.

Record number of Coronavirus...

Probably a lot more than in 2018 huh?

But hey, at least CV cured us of the Flu because cases of that mysteriously fell to zero...

El Paso is locking down as a final push to scare off voters.

Don't forget the 800 crisis actors "they" hired to quadruple the Covid hospitalizations over the last three weeks and completely fill the ICU beds.

I really hand it to the ones who volunteered to die just to hold down voter participation.

This has the fingerprints of the Biden camp money fix!!

You know, back before Citizens United the Biden campaign might have had enough money to pay a lot of people to get tested but that's about it.

Now, in this era of super PACs and dark money, they have the bucks to pay people to get critically ill and fill ICU beds and even die if need be.

We need campaign finance reform.

So you are saying you are more knowledgeable than a Stanford virologist?

I’m not a doctor, but I am certainly smart enough to research the evidence that establishes beyond a reasonable doubt that the the hydroxychloriquine cocktail works for virtually everyone.

The extremely low number of people who might have heart related issues is nothing compared to the extremely high percentage of people who fully recover with the Hydroxychloriquine cocktail, including people on ventilators.

Your research is inadequate. hydroxychloroquine does little for hospitalized patients or those on ventilators. I don’t know your virologist but I do clinically treat these patients and know what works and what doesn’t. If hydroxychloroquine was the magic bullet no one would be on ventilators or in the ICU. I understand you can google and think you have all the answers. You don’t. Again feel free to offer your services treating patients but I am done with this conversation
