I don't know, maybe I'm just dumb. Do I truly care, at this point, how many people have been tested - not really. If 30 million have been tested (roughly 10% of our pop) and 15 million tested positive what exactly would that tell me to do that I'm not already doing? I wear a mask - why? Because it "MAY" help. There's arguments both ways on that so who do you believe? Whomever you want. Social distancing and washing seem logical so I'll go with that. There's only 2 stats that interest me. One, what demographic succumbs more often to this virus. Older folks with underlying conditions. Well that's me so I take note. The other one would be if we ever get to 80% of the population testing positive then we'd be into the herd immunity ratio. I do peruse the stats but I'm a true believer in "believe none of what you hear and half of what you see". Especially in this day and age.
