Non sequitur alert.

How long has it been since Trump has spoken to Dr Fauci?

9% positives is way too high.

Better to be in jerseys 1.5%

Here is the testing website.

Not if the positives are asymptomatic.

Gets you closer to immunity.

That is why the CDC quit tracking the case counts in 2009 during H1N1.

Funny that Fauci never mentions that.

So what % of the positives are hospitalized in Texas vs New Jersey.

He doesn’t like spending a lot of time with habitually negative people. They destroy the soul. And besides, Fauci’s advice has been all over the shop.

I’ve heard 6 weeks or so. Don’t worry though - the medical experts over at Hannity have assured us this pandemic is over. Those people in hospitals and morgues are just figments of everyone’s imagination

Dr Fauci’s expertise compared to the absolute incompetence of D Trump. No contest.

Turns out…not so many.

Gallagher noted the difference between the positive public reaction to antibody studies that show a high percentage have had the virus already and when “everybody tends to panic a little bit” when new case surges are announced.

“That’s true, and I think that there’s something else that goes unspoken,” Atlas responded. “When you have a lot of low-risk people get the infection, that’s how you generate population immunity.”

Turning to the issue of hospitalizations, Atlas said, “When I looked at every single hospital area in Texas today, 15-20% of people in the hospital as inpatients are COVID positive patients. That means 80-85% have nothing to do with Covid-19. And the same thing goes with some of the other states. There are people hospitalized, a large number, because they are tested as COVID positive somehow they are categorized as COVID hospitalizations.

Thanks for trying

Not specifically directed towards you.

At some point there is a realization when a person or people believe something because it’s simply what they want to believe. When someone believes something because of lack of information, or misinformation, and they are open to alternative explanations, a conversation can be had. When a person believes something despite available validated information and there is no interest in having to change their belief, there is only futility.

When this first started, I personally was welcoming of conversation. Now, those who see masks as worthless, COVID as a hoax, conspiracy or overblown, etc., are in the same strata as those who believe in healing crystals, homeopathy or anti-vaccine. There is simply no point in conversation. Let them live in their world view and hope it doesn’t impact those around them too severely.

You can’t help those who don’t want to be helped.

That’s nice. Now can you explain these numbers to me?

I have no problem wearing a mask when appropriate. I do it.

I believe there is a virus. I believe some people have died from it.

9-11 resulted in the Patriot Act, the creation of Homeland Security, the introduction of ever more stringent security protocols st airports. Not to mention we went to war!!!

And lets not forget we allowed over 40,000 American troops get injured anx over 4,000 die - once again based on your logic a complete over reaction.

But I am sure like all cons these days you were against the Patriot aAct and the Iraq War.

Stay on topic please.

@Jezcoe since you liked @SottoVoce 's post and decided to participate, can you explain the numbers in that chart please?

You’re one of the most intelligent people on this forum, if anybody can you can.
