More tests. More cases. They're spiking everywhere. We will be fine.

What? Plenty of news about the intense competition in the development of a vaccine. Latest prediction is somebody will have one by the end of the year.

Why the spike?
57 patients of the 759 inmates that were just tested at the jail in Tavares and ALL of them were asymptomatic. The jails and prisons are a big kicker in uptick of cases. Also the large cities still have a big number of increases. The Villages and Sumter County have held up pretty well.

Because that'd be my first, second, and third guess.
I agree with your statement.
After 3 months in quarantine, society should know to continue social distancing and wash their hands for 20 seconds..those who neglect the simple rules will be at risk contracting the virus..
We should continue this practice for a couple of years and until vaccine has proven to work effectively.

But it does seem strange spikes are just in 3 or 4 states, & the worst state NY isn’t one of them. That’s a better question, why haven’t they spiked?

6 foot distancing , and wearing masks started getting ignored , can’t we try to do those 2 things ,until we get more info and solutions.

Just Wondering
 
We have continually heard about false negatives, so isn't it just possible that there are also false positives? I don't see how you can have one and not the other.

I've seen the entire video, about 90 mins, made undercover by the Elmhurst nurse in NY and totally believable. I believe the unabridged version has been scrubbed from YT:

Gov. Cuomo coronavirus nursing home policy proves tragic: Goodwin

In my state, Gov Wolf issued the same order (immediately after the state medial director pulled her mother out of her nursing home), resulting in 66% of the Covid deaths in PA

Make your own conclusions! :ohdear:

Here is a recent video that summarizes the approaches to vaccine development. It takes a long time to develop, test and manufacture a novel vaccine. If we have a safe, effective and readily available vaccine in two years it will be amazing, in one year would be incredible. I will not be among the first to get a rushed vaccine. I will wait a few months to see if the first folks get protected without significant side effects.
