Cobb county reporting. Wife is an RN for a large healthcare provider, and has treated lots of COVID patients. She has also had quite a number of patients die from the virus.
Yes, it is real. Yes, the numbers of hospitalizations are going back up right now. However, it is only killing people with other critical health problems.
Look at the total number of deaths for 2019 and compare to the extrapolated total number of deaths for 2020. There is not an noticeable increase in deaths. People that are dying from COVID were likely to succumb to stroke, cardiac arrest, congestive heart failure, respiratory failure, or diabetes.
Southwest GA here. I think I've known 1 or 2 people who had it, both recovered (including a coworker). I do HVAC service/repair and go into people's houses every day and the number of people who ask me to wear a mask is pretty low. Maybe 2 or 3 a week (and I average 8 houses per day). But then I don't get my news from MSM, so when people ask me if I'm worried, I say "No", honestly.

Same here in Indiana.
So long as the media can scare willing subjects (not citizens), people will still think it's deadly. And I'm CERTAIN the media is ignoring this just-published tidbit from Johns Hopkins.... https://thedonald.win/p/11QS7j81tl/johns-hopkins-report-just-publis/

Georgia here too - Gwinnett County to be precise. We have known a couple of people who had it and they said it was like a cold or mild flu.
