We've already proven that either one of two things are occurring...

In July/Aug with 60-70k cases, we "should have seen" upwards of 4-5000deaths if you compare it to April/May (can you hear that NY?)

So either the remedies are better... OR

Testing has increased, asymptomatic/young people are getting it....

As it stands in the minds of most rational people... This "oh so dangerous" spike will not increase deaths by any appreciable amount... CNN can lick a nut sack, and in 21 days the media will have another story to spin about one of two people winning the election.

This past week alone we've seen a few trending stories concerning the Vid..

Lockdowns don't work
Masks (especially cloth ones) are questionable in their effectiveness..

As predicted by many.. the closer the election gets, the more stories will be coming out concerning the great Covid debate.

You’re completely out of touch and did you just seriously state that masks don’t work? I mean seriously come on man have you been living under a rock the last few months? The trends by Fauci and others say deaths will double the next 3 months if left unchecked.

hopefully the plasma antibody which does work...along with the lab created ones really crush the death numbers.

Kingairfun sounds like a bit of a right wing kook. Probably thinks it’s a liberal and/or Chinese conspiracy.

I’m 100% against lockdowns, but that does require the selfish idiots among us to wear masks in certain places. Also, the increased cases are absolutely a big deal and already leading to increased hospitalization rates in Colorado.

If you want to talk about trends then we have to mention the current death rate trend will only add roughly 54k deaths by the end of the year using the current 7-day average of 700. I’ve personally not seen anyone predict a doubling of deaths and instead predictions seem to be 400k or less (which isn’t a doubling). Regardless, given the initial prediction of 2M deaths and countless other predictions completely missing their mark, I think it’s reasonable to assume an expected massive increase in deaths will not materialize. Look at what happened over the summer; huge spike in cases but no corresponding spike in deaths.

Italy instituted significant facemask policies on August 17. They are more strict than anything in The United States.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-a9673391.html

Italy’s COVID infection curve is attached with the August 17th mandate indicated by the vertical line.

Not sure it’s wise to put faith in mask efficacy. The good news is the virus seems to be much less deadly than before and herd immunity will eventually occur. How much humans want to fight nature and destroy themselves in the process still seems to be unsettled.

Belgium made face masks mandatory on August.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-h...-idUSKCN2580TG

Effective September 23 they removed the face mask mandate in most places. During the mask mandate Belgium went from approximately 400 cases per day to over 6,000 cases per day.

Face masks are useless. I’m sorry you believe the lies.

Yep 100% right. What happened to the right wing kooks saying the virus being over after the election?? They’re cutting it kind of close with the rising cases all around.

Just the over reaction to it.

You were doing so well until the very end about masks are further useless and lies as well. If anything that graph should be a big concern about how we should be doubling down on efforts to contain the spread so that it doesn’t cause even more havoc on us and our economies. Not taking it seriously is just going to prolong this.
