Impossible. "Health experts" said it was not possible to catch covid, so long as your massive, close-quarters crowd gathering is #Woke


It also took those same “health experts” over a month into the pandemic to recommend that it might be a good idea to start cleaning the NYC subways.

Is this the same fake bullshite posted 2 days ago?

The reason for the uptick is due to testing. Texas is testing 3 times as many as just a few weeks ago.

This is what irritates me. You know the fraud medical experts like Fauci and governors like Whitmer are loving this. In Whitmer's case it will be used as an excuse to keep Michigan in lockdown. For the rest of the country once we start seeing the big spike you know there will be a push to shut down the country again. Crush the economy just as it was showing signs of life.

Almost like it was planned.

How could this be posted 2 days ago when the numbers were recorded yesterday?

True but there is a way to account for that. By just looking at the numbers from the past week (when testing is at a similar level to what it was yesterday) it looks like Dallas county was averaging around 200 new cases per day over the past 7 days (not counting Tuesdays which are skewed because the weekend results are reported then) and then it jumps to almost 300 per day yesterday. Yesterday just happens to be the day that people exposed to the virus at a mass gathering (i.e. protest or riot) would being to notice symptoms which would make them need to get tested. Coincidence? It is possible, but not likely.

Riots are dying down they need to start making the pivot back to Covid to tell everyone to go back into their bunkers.

The way to account for an increase in testing is to compare the percentage of increase in testing against the rate of infection increase.

Travis County (Austin) increased testing 4 percent but saw a 10 percent increase in positives. That suggests an uptick.

I tried to tell them not to protest. The 2 doctors told them not to get close to others. They just wont listen.

Well you know they will refuse hydroxychloroquine since Trump endorsed it. So maybe Darwinism will save us after all.
