Bingo! Asymptomatic people and those with flippin' common cold symptoms are helping to drive this narrative and fuel the hand-wringing.

Health department told me on the phone that it's positive test rates that are keeping us like this.... the deaths are way the fuck down and we all know they're overreported. If people who aren't sick wit lining up literally around the block for them, we'd be back to normal

A liberal I work alongside has his eyes open to it now.

Spread this link far and wide. Even the CDC admits in plain text that the deaths are a fraction of what they were a couple months ago. It is impossible to justify the media and state governments trying to drum up more fear than ever simply because more people are being tested. Even if a person is a leftie they should hopefully understand this unless they are really far gone.

And this is why the President should never, ever meet the demands of screeching propagandists in the press room.

As soon as they dropped the ventilator line of attack and moved on to testing, you just knew it had to be bad news. It got us this mess while the rest of the world has moved on.

The Biden campaign is going strong peaceful riots, Governors refusing to do anything, letting islamic extremists run rampant (watch the live streams you'll see them preaching in front of groups about hate for america and willing to die for this)
forcing totalitarian extremist mandates.

deaths are a lagging indicator of cases and are now trending upward

12 week downward trend. It doesn't take long to say it was a death because of covid, it takes a while to spin a death "with" as "from"

I have been creating occasional China Flu charts based on the Johns-Hopkins dashboard of death site. Here's the math I have regarding deaths per day:

1024/day from may 18 to june 7

745/day from june 7 to june 28

688/day from june 28 to july 19

A definite downward death rate even though the number of cases has been trending up.

More than likely a temporary spike due to the Fourth. We'll see either way, especially now that President Trump has the reins.

The deaths always follow by one week when you look at the curves.

My neighbor in FL just told me that she & her husband had a picnic with 10 other friends.

Her husband and all 10 friends tested positive... and they’re all asymptomatic.

Either this is the weakest virus ever with so many having zero symptoms or..... the numbers are cooked.

Shit, the company I work for makes you take two weeks if you tell them you were around somebody else who tested positive.

Some faggot denied me entry to a convenience store. So this fuktard has his nose hanging out over a food prep station, and he barking at me.
