This should not be happening at this point in the calendar...yes people are born and die every day but the amount of people dying from this on this day was very preventive

I call BS on this panic porn.

The 7-day average of US deaths has been trending back down:

7/25/2020 = 900
7/26/2020 = 905
7/27/2020 = 1,004
7/28/2020 = 1,017
7/29/2020 = 1,059
7/30/2020 = 1,095
7/31/2020 = 1,113
8/1/2020 = 1,132
8/2/2020 = 1,126
8/3/2020 = 1,049
8/4/2020 = 1,057
8/5/2020 = 1,055
8/6/2020 = 1,049
8/7/2020 = 1,053

The death rate is also still coming down, now at 3.1%.

The states that many here complained about like FL, GA, TX, AZ are also all trending down as are current hospitalizations in the U.S.

A one-day blip is not indicative of anything, look at the trends, haven't you learned anything from Merge?

What is your source for numbers listed?

 

[SPK145]

What is your source for numbers listed?

For the millionth time, it's the site Merge gave here months ago:

https://covidtracking.com/data

 

[Merge]

Well, you're both right.

New hospitalizations and deaths appear to have plateaued and should start to decrease again. But the 2nd spike which started a month ago didn't need to happen. Certain states opened without a plan for how to identify when the virus is starting to spread rapidly and how they will respond.

I wouldn't say we are out of the woods yet, but there have been a few positive signs that we are trending in the right direction at least.

Merge do you think 250k deaths or more US by Dec 31?

At this point, I would think under that.

Many said this second spike was unavoidable...but predicted it for the Fall.

After 100 threads directed at one person you have to wonder is this serious hate or a man crush.

wht is your take on this? youre pretty much the go to for anything medical and tend to leave out political motivation.

im hoping like hell shu09 turns out to be right, but i wouldnt place money on it.

Was it a second spike or just first spikes in new regions? Or maybe the latter is what you mean by second spike(?).

 

[donnie_baseball]

Good question. In my opinion, FL, AZ, and TX simply got their first "wave" later. Not sure we'll see spikes going forward, or just waxing and waning, particularly in NY and NJ, which had a lot of cases, and presumably a lot of undiagnosed mild cases.
