Only thing that worries me is we are up a net 300 hospitalizations since the bottom.
And I guess it’s safe to assume that the heat does nothing to this virus

When I was 18 I wouldn’t give a frick about getting something that didn’t make me sick
Lord knows I wasn’t worried about HPV then

That's false. It makes it sweaty and miserable just like people.

Some negative test results from commercial labs may not have been reported to the state
All state health departments have been saying this since the beginning. Taking into account the growing volume of tests, you know these private companys that are testing are only sending what is required to save time and money.

Regular flu season is long gone and done.

According to Dr. Stefanski, a case is only counted one time per person. They removed 1,600 duplicates but have changed their reporting method to avoid duplicates.

The UV rays kick it’s arse, destroying the proteins that bind the virus together.
Increased sun exposure reduces vitamin D3 deficiency which assists in our immune response to the virus.

I think part of hospitization being up is due to hospital ER's seeing more patients for other illnesses. It so happen that they're covid positive too.
Vents are at their highest point since May 28. I don't care about 'positive tests' but you can't discount the importance of hospitalizations, vents, & deaths.

How are they removing the RE-tests? Is each lab submitting identically collected data types and formats? Who runs the Dup check and how often?

I don’t think you can assume that. A climate controlled bar or house party is the same whether it is spring, summer, or winter. There is a huge youth baseball tournament in Sulphur beginning tomorrow. The question was posed to the administration about having the tournament. A spokesman for JBE stated there were no known instances of the virus spreading at an outdoors youth sporting event. I would think the heat and humidity play a large part in that.

agreed. I'd like to see how many people have taken the tests and how that breaks down.

It's not difficult to do if they are maintaining a database of people that test positive. If they are doing contact tracing, I'd think you can infer a db is being kept. There could always be some that slip through the cracks and cause duplicates I'm sure. But either way, the db would be easy to create and simple to retrieve that data.

That’s assuming they use a shared platform and each point of collection uses exactly the same system.
I doubt all the testing sites use the same system and “Noise” gets in the data, everyday.

Uptick.
If you correct for the data dump.

Nope, gets asked every day and gets debunked every day.
