US to exceed 1 million positive cases by Wednesday or ealier

Total bullshit, and it's really starting to stink.

THIS, or else I know of people who had it, was mild, and they completely recovered.

Gee, according to the CDC that'll be about 1/45th of the 45 million flu cases we suffered in the U.S. during the 2017-18 Flu Season -- along with at least 61,000 flu deaths.

out of 350 MILLION people and most of time.. if the results are not faked.. they have the common cold. I am not impressed.

:thank you 3:

:Love to you 2:

You people who think this is a hoax and want everything back to normal -- you are the people who go to your lousy jobs, pay your taxes like good sheep, drag yourselves home, watch some TV or go to the local bar, go to sleep, wake up and repeat. You would NEVER step up when it mattered. Keyboard warriors. It's a shame.

Absolute twisting of numbers. This whole thing is dumb lol

Nope not me. Liberalism is a mental illness period

Me neither. This whole thing is bull shit

There is probably half that if not 25%. What a SCAM

FREEDOM

Im in the Detroit area and my sis works in the local hospital. She said over the last 2 weeks, there was an EMT driver and ICU nurse in the ICU unit with the bug,,,that was it.

27 to 55 times that per USC/LA County study. It's already spread through the schools in Houston from Nov - Feb diagnosed as an Upper Respiratory Infection, after strep & flu came back negative. ;)

Over 7 mil in NY alone based on randomized testing

Right, because even if this was a real threat, stopping the spread of a virus thats infected a million Americans we know about and 30,000 more a day is realistic.

Hoaxtards -- listen. The US needs change. As long as there is election fraud, your vote means next to nothing. So for those of you who want to return to exactly the way it was before the pandemic, you will get exactly what you bargained for. Sometimes the road to change is convoluted and uncertain. Instead of focusing on returning to the status quo, concentrate on navigating the road from your present position (no matter how we got here). You might be surprised where you end up.

OP,

So were are all of the Obituaries and Funerals, ...... ?

We'll hit 1 million by tomorrow afternoon. But let's not kid ourselves. Real cases are probably 10-20 million at this point.

1 million....1 in 328 get virus..brutal

Give everybody 2000 a month thru december

Nyc is gonna lose 40k easily..scary

Neither do I.

Good, we need to get up to appropriate levels for Herd Immunity

IMHO the figures we've been seeing are all screwy and there are a tremendous number more of Americans that have had the petulance with little problems. The R0 on this thing has also been overstated. Fact is the whole thing stinks to high heaven and you can't be sure of any of their numbers.

+++++++++++++++++++

Herd immunity, or community immunity, is when a large part of the population of an area is immune to a specific disease. If enough people are resistant to the cause of a disease, such as a virus or bacteria, it has nowhere to go.

While not every single individual may be immune, the group as a whole has protection. This is because there are fewer high-risk people overall. The infection rates drop, and the disease peters out.

Herd immunity protects at-risk populations. These include babies and those whose immune systems are weak and can’t get resistance on their own.

How Do You Achieve Herd Immunity?

When does a community reach herd immunity? It depends on the reproduction number, or R0. The R0 tells you the average number of people that a single person with the virus can infect if those people aren’t already immune. The higher the R0, the more people need to be resistant to reach herd immunity.

Researchers think that the R0 for COVID-19 is between 2 and 3. This means that one person can infect two to three other people. It also means 50% to 67% of the population would need to be resistant before herd immunity kicks in and the infection rates start to go down.

How many is that?
Not a million

And only 59 million more cases to go to match H1N1.

the numbers are so overcooked that it got Gordon Ramseys attention.

if you die in a car wreck you died of COVID now.. fuck the numbers. trust your gut and not the fake ass john hopskins site , which paid the WHO millions of dollars last year. they are all in cohoots on this. its 100% FAKE the numbers are a LIE everywhere

You left out the random sex. Otherwise that's me! What should I do in your opinion?
