Reported deaths over the last week

Keep in mind that at one time NY was reporting around a 1000 deaths a day

  • California - 635
  • Texas - 525
  • Florida - 499
  • Arizona - 435
  • New Jersey - 323

For whatever reasons, the media wants to focus on Florida and Texas, while pretty much ignoring California. If Gavin Newsom had not called attention to the situation by shutting his state back down, there will probably still be no talk of California. Arizona seems to be flattening out a bit in their reported cases, which should be good news moving forward. New Jersey stubbornly holds on with the fifth highest death rate over the past week.

As was pointed out by many, the entire state of Florida (in spite of reporting 70,000 cases) had an increase of a few hundred more hospitalizations, and approximately 150 more people in ICU than the previous week. While any increase in hospitalizations or ICU patients is a bad thing, the fact is that the current rate of infection to Hospitalization or ICU appears to be considerably lower than has been anywhere else at any time. 

One of the major factors that testing has found in these Sun Belt states is the increase of migrant workers has led to an increase in the virus spreading through these migrant communities (many times living in temporary and crowded situations). However, the fact that these workers tend to be younger and less prone to the harsh effects that older people feel is likely what is adding to the limited death toll at this point.

We must also keep in mind that Florida has been averaging nearly 100,000 tests a day and that their rate of positive results over the past few days has started to go down. While they still have a long way to go, there appears to be little reason to expect that Florida is the new New York or will be any time soon.

FOX 35 INVESTIGATES: Hospitals confirm mistakes in Florida’s COVID-19 report

ORLANDO, Fla. - The Florida Department of Health released its daily coronavirus testing report showing a statewide positivity rate of 11 percent, but FOX 35 News investigated and quickly noticed some shocking positivity rates.

Countless labs have reported a 100 percent positivity rate, which means every single person tested was positive. Other labs had very high positivity rates. FOX 35 found that testing sites like Centra Care reported that 83 people were tested and all tested positive. Then, NCF Diagnostics in Alachua reported 88 percent of tests were positive.

How could that be? FOX 35 News investigated these astronomical numbers, contacting every local location mentioned in the report.

The report showed that Orlando Health had a 98 percent positivity rate. However, when FOX 35 News contacted the hospital, they confirmed errors in the report. Orlando Health's positivity rate is only 9.4 percent, not 98 percent as in the report.
The report also showed that the Orlando Veteran’s Medical Center had a positivity rate of 76 percent. A spokesperson for the VA told FOX 35 News on Tuesday that this does not reflect their numbers and that the positivity rate for the center is actually 6 percent.

FOX 35 News has yet to hear from the other labs or the Florida Department of Health to explain how the error could have been made on an official report.

The mortality rate in children is lower from the virus, but there’s still much researchers don’t know about COVID-19, including the potential long-term effects on children and their ability to spread it to older, more vulnerable relatives and caregivers. Teachers’ unions say their members are reluctant to return to classrooms until the epidemic is under control. On Friday, the American Academy of Pediatrics hedged its initial plan for in-person schooling by releasing a statement that said, “Public health agencies must make recommendations based on evidence, not politics” and “Science and community circumstances must guide decision-making.”

It’s accurate that other countries are planning to open schools in the fall, but they did a better job at suppressing the virus through testing, contact tracing and communicating the importance of masks than the U.S. government.

Trump has downplayed the deaths of Americans previously while in office, stating that the death toll in Puerto Rico from Hurricane Maria wasn’t as high as multiple studies concluded after the White House’s slow response to the natural disaster was criticized.

“3000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit Puerto Rico,” Trump said in September 2018, a year after the storm. “When I left the Island, AFTER the storm had hit, they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths. As time went by it did not go up by much. Then, a long time later, they started to report really large numbers, like 3000.”

The official Hurricane Maria death toll, according to the Puerto Rican government, is 2,975. That number, calculated by researchers with the Milken Institute School of Public Health at George Washington University, is lower than that of a Harvard study, which put the number at 4,645. Either number would make Maria the deadliest natural disaster in the United States in over a century.

Miami-Dade County, which includes Miami, and Osceola County, home to the cities of Kissimmee and Celebration, are especially hard-hit.

Miami-Dade is reporting a positivity rate of 22.1% while Osceola County's positivity rate stands at 22.8%. Duval County, home to Jacksonville, and Hillsborough County, which includes Tampa, both have positivity rates at 16%.

Former Vice President Joe Biden will aim to make electricity generation carbon free by 2035 as part of a $2 trillion climate and infrastructure plan should he win the White House in November.

The plan, unveiled Tuesday, comes as an addition to the Democratic candidate’s existing climate plan, which calls for a $1.7 million federal investment as the left wing of the party has sought to push him farther on environmental issues.

Biden’s new proposal also includes investing in 500,000 electric vehicle charging stations, creating a new climate research agency and halving the carbon footprint of buildings by 2035, including by upgrading 4 million buildings. 

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Some of the ideas in the plan, notably the 2035 carbon-free power target, echo recommendations set by a task force made up of supporters of both Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a former progressive rival for the Democratic presidential nomination.

The two co-chairs of that panel were Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who had endorsed Sanders, and 2004 Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.

In infrastructure, the plan calls for all U.S.-made buses to be zero-emission by 2030 and endorses “ambitious” fuel economy standards, although it does not specify what those will be.

The new plan already garnered some praise among environmentalists.

“Joe Biden’s climate plan—by a long shot—is the most ambitious we have ever seen from any president in our nation’s history,” Gina McCarthy, who led the Environmental Protection Agency during the Obama administration, said in a statement. “This is the kind of leadership we need in the face of a challenge of this scale.”

Doctors call current situation ‘extremely grave’
Doctors on Gimenez’s call described Miami-Dade’s COVID situation as “extremely grave” and placing the county in the “epicenter” of the current COVID pandemic that once was ravaging New York and China. They urged the public to comply with county rules on businesses and public spaces, including requirements to wear masks.

“We really need your help. Miami is now the epicenter of the pandemic. What we were seeing in Wuhan five or six months ago, now we are there,” said Dr. Lilian Abbo, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Miami and chief of infection control at the county’s tax-funded Jackson hospital system.

Miami-Dade’s COVID total of about 67,000 reported cases is on par with the Chinese province of Wuhan’s reported total of 50,000 before cases started flattening out in April, but about a third of the deaths — 1,037 reported in Miami-Dade and about 3,800 in Wuhan. New York City’s COVID measures remain far more alarming than Miami-Dade’s. While Miami-Dade is seeing about one in four COVID tests come back positive, roughly 70% were testing positive at the peak of New York’s outbreak in the spring.

But the county numbers are far worse than what Miami-Dade faced when Gimenez reopened restaurants and nonessential businesses on May 18. Then, COVID patients occupied about 22% of the county’s supply of intensive-care beds. On Monday, they occupied 98% of ICU beds.

Abbo said she’d welcome more business restrictions but not at the expense of more people being pushed into financial turmoil.

“Yes, I would love to order a lockdown. However, we are trying to prevent that,” she said. “Because we understand how important the economy is ... for people to be able to pay their day-to-day bills and survive.”

Gimenez said the public needs to take the mask rules seriously and make it socially unacceptable to ignore them.

“All of us have to have a little bit of peer pressure in enforcing the rules,” he said. “It’s not OK to take off your mask in front of me, thank you very much. Because you may have the virus. As a matter of fact, I may have it. That’s the message that needs to be driven home.”

He declined to say whether he’d asked the White House to encourage President Donald Trump to cover his face when he flew to Miami late last week and greeted Gimenez without a mask, an apparent violation of the mayor’s own emergency rule that masks be worn in public places. The county has not answered what exemption applied to Trump, except that the White House requires people greeting the president to be tested for COVID ahead of time (as Gimenez said he was).

“The president of the United States has extraordinary measures that protect him,” Gimenez said Monday. Trump wore a mask for the first time in front of the media the next day while visiting a military hospital near the White House on Saturday.

On Monday, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez said he thinks the president and DeSantis should reinforce the wearing of masks, especially if they appear in Miami-Dade County.

“I’d love for the president to come out and say everyone should wear a mask in public,” Suarez told the Miami Herald. “I’d love for the governor to say that as well. There’s a segment of the population that listens to them and only then. We would all benefit if they would say that.”

Miami Herald staff writer Joey Flechas contributed to this report.

America shuts down again -- choosing reality over Trump's false claims
Analysis by Stephen Collinson, CNN
July 14, 2020
While President Donald Trump obsesses about his reelection hopes in his White House bubble, state and local leaders are frantically reversing state reopenings that he demanded, which turned America into the world's biggest coronavirus hotspot.
As emergency rooms filled and the virus quickened its relentless march across southern and Western states, Trump stuck to the fiction that the worst is already over: "We had to close it down; now we're opening it up," the President said of the economy at the White House, patting himself on the back for saving "millions of lives."
As new cases of the disease reach 60,000 a day nationwide, many leaders, including those who supported Trump's aggressive approach, now have little choice but to prioritize science over politics, leaving the President looking out of touch with reality.
In Texas, Houston's Democratic Mayor Sylvester Turner proposed a two-week shutdown, days after Republican Gov. Greg Abbott raised the possibility of more stringent measures after issuing a mask wearing mandate that offended conservative orthodoxy. West Virginia called time's up in bars in the worst-hit county.
In California, Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered the closure of all indoor restaurants, wineries, movie theaters, zoos, museums and shut all bars. Los Angeles and San Diego said their kids would start the new school year online only. Oregon banned gatherings of more than 10 people inside because of an "alarming rise" of Covid-19 cases in the state. KFC encouraged franchises in Florida, Texas, Oklahoma and California to stop dine-in service.
Florida, which on Saturday set the record for any state in single day data on new infections, now has more Covid-19 cases than all but eight entire countries.
The picture is of a nation that is beginning to shut down again in defiance of the President's triumphant but misleading claims that a "transition to greatness" is under way. Restrictions imposed on cities as large as Houston and Los Angeles could set back the surprising revival in the economy last month.
Modest job gains, trumpeted by the President, could turn into permanent job losses.
In remarks likely to further infuriate Trump, who is grousing about Dr. Anthony Fauci's press, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases made what is unfortunately becoming an obvious point: fast openings have triggered a disaster.
"It is very clear -- and we know this from countries throughout the world -- that if you physically separate people, to the point of not allowing the virus to transmit ... we know that we can do that if we shut down," Fauci said on a Stanford School of Medicine webinar.
"We did not shut down entirely -- and that's the reason why, when we went up, we started to come down, and then we plateaued at a level that was really quite high -- about 20,000 infections a day," Fauci said. "Then, as we started to reopen, we're seeing the surges that we're seeing today, as we speak, in California ... in Arizona, in Texas and in many other states.

The European union has been able to open up again because they followed the guidelines by the medical experts

OUCH:


Twitter is not on the masthead of The New York Times. But Twitter has become its ultimate editor. As the ethics and mores of that platform have become those of the paper, the paper itself has increasingly become a kind of performance space. Stories are chosen and told in a way to satisfy the narrowest of audiences, rather than to allow a curious public to read about the world and then draw their own conclusions. I was always taught that journalists were charged with writing the first rough draft of history. Now, history itself is one more ephemeral thing molded to fit the needs of a predetermined narrative.

My own forays into Wrongthink have made me the subject of constant bullying by colleagues who disagree with my views. They have called me a Nazi and a racist; I have learned to brush off comments about how I'm "writing about the Jews again." Several colleagues perceived to be friendly with me were badgered by coworkers. My work and my character are openly demeaned on company-wide Slack channels where masthead editors regularly weigh in. There, some coworkers insist I need to be rooted out if this company is to be a truly "inclusive" one, while others post ax emojis next to my name. Still other New York Times employees publicly smear me as a liar and a bigot on Twitter with no fear that harassing me will be met with appropriate action. They never are.

There are terms for all of this: unlawful discrimination, hostile work environment, and constructive discharge. I�m no legal expert. But I know that this is wrong.

I do not understand how you have allowed this kind of behavior to go on inside your company in full view of the paper's entire staff and the public. And I certainly can't square how you and other Times leaders have stood by while simultaneously praising me in private for my courage. Showing up for work as a centrist at an American newspaper should not require bravery.

Part of me wishes I could say that my experience was unique. But the truth is that intellectual curiosity--let alone risk-taking--is now a liability at The Times. Why edit something challenging to our readers, or write something bold only to go through the numbing process of making it ideologically kosher, when we can assure ourselves of job security (and clicks) by publishing our 4000th op-ed arguing that Donald Trump is a unique danger to the country and the world? And so self-censorship has become the norm.

What rules that remain at The Times are applied with extreme selectivity. If a person's ideology is in keeping with the new orthodoxy, they and their work remain unscrutinized. Everyone else lives in fear of the digital thunderdome. Online venom is excused so long as it is directed at the proper targets.

WELL THAT'S NOT TRUE
Trump complains Biden and Obama stopped coronavirus testing even though it didn't exist during their administration
July 13, 2020
President Trump is blaming his biggest problem on his favorite enemy.

Trump held a press conference Monday where he was asked to explain why he constantly blames surging COVID-19 case counts on more testing. But he refused to acknowledge there simply are more coronavirus cases and hospitalizations out there now, instead asking why the gathered reporters weren't talking about the COVID-19 failures of the Obama administration.



"We have one of the lowest mortality rates anywhere," Trump falsely said Monday when asked how the U.S. will stop COVID-19 spread. Not only is America's coronavirus mortality rate far from the lowest in the world, it's also been deflated due to rampant testing and rising case numbers — not to mention that many people with COVID-19 face severe and debilitating illness without dying.

"Biden and Obama stopped their testing," Trump then said, referring to former President Barack Obama and former Vice President Joe Biden. "I'm sure you don't want to report it," Trump added to the reporter, which is probably true — the new coronavirus hadn't even infected a person until late 2019, well into Trump's presidency.,
