Now that's just wrong

Corona death counting just got more confusing: YouTube

Some are afraid to die. Others are afraid to live.

More testing = more cases recorded whether or not there actually are more. And yes, we have been doing more testing every day.

There probably are a few more, but we can't stay locked down the 12-18 months it would take to get a vaccine. That would be more fatal that the disease itself.

Right now, for under 65s in the USA, the chance of dying from Covid is lower than the chance of driving/riding in a car 16-17 miles each day. We do not forbid such people to use cars, so why forbid them to work, eat out, etc.

Not sure about chances for over 65s. Anyway, its up to each person - they can always stay home, shop at the 7am senior grocery hour, use telemedicine, etc., if they wish.

Go for it!!

Yes I see a problem. We can’t trust authorities to do what is necessary to keep us safe so we are going to have to take care of ourselves. They prefer to stick their head in the sand and pretend the virus is gone which it obviously is not!

Unfortunately one of their main priorities if not the biggest is getting reelected.

As a result they pander and pander in order to get votes.

We desperately need term limits or citizens willing to vote them out of office.

While I would personally prefer it if everyone that might be around me were constantly tested and made to wear their masks, so I didn't have to, I guess if I were a true American Patriot...I should just adopt the philosophy of YOLO! :D

Hmmmm! Thought a female died??

I am so sick and tired of hearing it. Lock yourself away in a closet and stay there, if that is what you want to do but it does not allow you to dictate to others. Apparently, what we hear from experts isn’t much better than listening to grandma. How can anyone put faith in comments from WHO, CDC, or that idiot Ferguson, who has been wrong more than right. I am happy to see things opened again.FREEDOM!

Yes, Bigley problemo. I can see a rise in the current 1st wave and a 2nd, maybe, worse wave in the Fall/Winter combo CV and seasonal flu season. Fl has been undercounting our cases so it hid this recent graph of cases curve steepening now. So, Fl is LESS prepared than with honest counting. The closing, then opening etc. may hurt and cost society more than NYC did by being cautious and CONSERVATIVE. Being secretive and non-transparent is NOT the way to defeat a virus like this. You need medical science. logic and real numbers. Put Dr. Fauci in charge and forget the politics of the situation.

Actually it will help all of society, even the individual that may not wear their mask. It might prevent one's own torturous DEATH, an unnecessary, preventable DEATH !
