Another strange response. Why would I think that? The facts as defined by the CDC are the US hss been in a weekly fatality decline associated with covid-19 for what is now the 12th straight week and the pandemic ended by CDC definition almost a month ago. |
When did CDC say the pandemic ended June 13? Do you have a link for that? |

Cases in the US are rising, exponentially.
Deaths will follow. That's how numbers related to viruses work. The US response, or lack thereof, has been an abject failure and our economy will pay the price for years. |

Tony nominee Nick Cordero passed away today at age 41. He spent 3 months in the ICU and suffered a lot (including a leg amputation). RIP

Tragic, of course. But, INCREDIBLY irresponsible to not report this as an EXTREMELY rare outcome among that age cohort. Why would the media do that? Honestly is never rewarded in their never ending quest to extend the virus epidemic well beyond its actual impact, because that gets eyes and clicks. Disgusting and terrible. |
It wasn't EXTREMELY rare for Nick Cordero, and it may not be EXTREMELY rare for you. You don't know, and to act like you do is INCREDIBLY irresponsible of you. Disgusting and terrible. |

It doesn't say anything about the pandemic being over. |

There is good news and bad news in this report. If the virus is as transmissable as reports suggest, Spain should be at a much higher level of AB presence. If the AB presence is only at 5% at this time, it suggests the virus does have a life span and how long it will be around much like SARS. The last suggestion is to say Spain and many other smaller Western European countries have slowed their testing to a fraction of what they were doing several months ago leading to speculation the infection percentage is much higher than reported. |
It absolutely says the level of weekly fatalities has dropped below the historical average but they haven't made a formal proclamation. The curve will also be less from June 13th through at least today, Whether the curve holds with the rise of infections is another argument. |

If the US had treated Covid with the same seriousness that Europe did, we would have had only 1.1 million cases here, instead of the 2.9 million we have had under trump. Can’t we should at least as much organization as the European Union? That’s a huge group of countries with more open borders than the US, and yet we have far more cases. Trump is responsible for the piss-poor response here. He is responsible for 1.8 million excess cases of Covid in the US. |
