These darn Republican states are killing everyone and both Nebraska and Iowa have been used as examples to justify other places remaining closed and how it's unsafe for kids to go to school. But you'll never hear about how cases fell off a cliff in these parts despite almost no restrictions
Omaha was used as an example of a hotbed 2 months ago with little mandates.
Per CDC dashboard..
Hospitilations:
11/23 - 445
2/19 - 96
Deaths wk of:
11/28 - 46
2/13 - 6

The only way to slow down the spread of this virus was to let people's immune systems get adjusted in large scale. This has been the case throughout history. It's well documented.
The hot spots were new areas that of course increased exponentially. Anyone who used that to instill panic was doing so with a motive.

I saw earlier today that covid deaths are down 77% nationwide over the last 6 weeks. Amazing huh?

It's almost like infections and vaccines lead to population immunity.
Crazy I know.

Well they did change definitions, and all
If the current definitions had been in play in 2020, guess what? No pandemic. No mail in ballots. No Joe Biden

I don't understand why some people tie opening to cases even if there's no more deaths and hospitalizations.
We don't count the other common colds.
In May or June every state will be like Iowa.
Can someone explain to me why we need to keep restrictions until there are no cases, even if there aren't hospitalizations or deaths?

That is great news.

Interesting data point I should have already thought of.
Compare PCR positives to total positive cases.
I looked at a county here in Missouri and PCR positives was only 66% of total positives - meaning the other third is rapid test. So subtract 33% from the total of positives.
