I know covid isnt the flu and its a bit different, but everytime i have been sick in say the last 10 years, it has come from a kid, my nieces/nephew, or my neighbors kids when i go hang out over there.
I'd just be skeptical about it is all. |

I have a feeling the airplane is something that's floating around in me already, but it gets all spread around when the pressure changes are like taking a plunger to my sinuses. |

Okay something is going on and there is some kind of significant change in things. Cases are almost 80k today and have been "surging" for well over a month and really all things considered we have see marginal movement in deaths all things considered. Don't get me wrong we have seen a rise in deaths but on balance we aren't seeing anything like we did before and with the exception of the 4 hot spots we aren't even seeing a run on the hospitals.
Makes you wonder if things are taking a turn for the better in that maybe this thing is becoming less and less virulent..... |

I’m guessing it means we’re catching a lot more infections now than we were then. Hell there might have been 100k alone in New York

So while there is obviously a rise in cases we have to really keep perspective on what that means. I mean the upward move in deaths was a bit expected but also a bit surprising that is isn't worse to be honest. Hopefully we are seeing this thing tame itself down some. |

Texas and Arizona have rolled over and look to be going down. That’s atleast some good news

No one freaks out about getting the flu cause we have treatments and have some immunity and don’t have a high rate of bad outcomes |

Speaking of which I think it's time to start moving away from PCR testing. The turn around times are simply not practical. I saw a report the other day that antigen testing is around 97% accurate if done within 5 days of symptom onset. These types of tests give you results in 5 minutes. Not 15 days. |

And if the antigen test shows a negative and the doctor is still skeptical, then do the PCR test. We're never going to be able to ramp up the ability to process PCR tests efficiently at the volume we're currently testing.

More cases equal more deaths pete this isn’t hard man. Individually, it may be mild illness for however many, but it’s not for some. So higher case counts mean more deaths.
