Go herd immunity.
The jeannie was already let out of the bottle.
Vaccine production/efficacy/toxicity uncertain.
"Flatten the curve" was not to reduce incidence at the end of pandemic. It will naturally prolong the period over which it takes place.

What are the numbers and his severe are the cases?
What are we talking about here? What’s the order of magnitude here and his severe are the symptoms (if any)?

why does the article list all sorts of numbers but not COVID patients hospitalized?

There is no proof of widespread re-infection.

I’m assuming a case is a positive test.
That only tells you a part of the story. How many of the “cases” have symptoms, how bad are the symptoms, how many had to be hospitalized, etc.
Just saying there are more cases when there are way more tests says very little.

Hospitalizations data You can create a quick line graph and see the spikes in Harris/Dallas counties.

Exactly my point of my original post, NOBODY knows a fricking thing about the KUNG FLU right?

Fourteen more deaths were reported; the region's death count is now at 497.
Just for comparison, that’s lower than the Missouri side of the St. Louis MSA. Significantly lower. And Harris County has over 4M while the Missouri side of the STL MSA is closer to 2M.

Yes, the hospitalization cases have jumped for the last month and are still rising. Are there any similar stats which reflect ages?

ICU beds are ALWAYS stretched..ALWAYS. Managing that capacity is what I do with software. These people are full of shite. CA now saying hospitalized people are in and out, not ICU.
You know. I'm beginning to think there might be some people very interested and invested in keeping this farce (the overreaction, not the virus) going for a very long time

The problem with this article is the lack of details. There is no relevant demographics data, just a vague spike.
It’s not the article’s fault. That blame falls solely on the OP.

You caught me.
I created COVID.
And I would’ve gotten away with it, if it wasn’t for your meddling.

Amazing how this was conveniently omitted in the report.

This is what I've been melting about for two months. How about showing some benchmark data on ICU beds with a fully open economy. Maybe the hospitals are a little better at managing their capacity than the Governors are.
Take my word....if virtual space is not created on step down units and on the floors the ICU's stay full all the time....especially during flu season when folks are on vents and dying all over the place from pneumonia....just like Covid. This is absolutely no different.

Then they would have described them as pediatric pts instead of younger pts.

Dems wanted the protests because they knew it would drive up the # of virus cases. Those frickers would destroy this country to hurt Trump. They all need to go straight to hell.

I found this link from Fort Bend County's COVID-19 page. Thought it contained a great deal of good information regarding all area bed usage (general, ICU, COVID) in Texas counties. Enter Harris County, you can then scroll through the 7 pages of hospital data to see various current stats. I hope I did the link correctly.

Kids are coming home from camps.
One lone person runs a fever; tests positive.
All attendees are subsequently tested; multiple, asymptomatic cases are identified.
As most of you are aware of the incubation period for covid-19 is 5-14 days. The first BLM protest in Houston was on 05/28/2020 which means that people would start developing symptoms which would prompt them to present for testing around 06/02/2020. Sure enough that is when the spike started. Prior to 06/02/2020 Harris county was reporting < 200 new cases per day, but since 06/02/2020 Harris county has been reporting > 200 cases per day. Plus the "record uptick in new covid-19 cases" was first reported on 06/06/2020 which just happens to been in the middle of the incubation period for people exposed at a protest. Kids coming home from camp and football players coming home from summer workouts might play a factor in it, but if that was the only cause then it is one hell of a coincidence that the spike started 5 days (the start of the incubation period) after the first protest.

According to the CDC the weekly hospitalization rate for covid-19 has remained stable and the mortality rate continues to fall ( LINK). Which is good Obviously my position can and will change if the mortality rate starts increasing or even slows it decrease. However, as of right now I think that we should be happy that the # of cases is going up and the mortality rate is falling; because it means that we are building herd immunity.
Of course, the idiots in the media and the super idiots in government are overreacting again and that is maddening.
