[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is there not a lot of good news being printed at the national level RE: Covid.  Hospitalizations are WAY down (almost 22,000 less hospitalizations over the last 3 weeks), case trend is going down as well.

Seems like news is still gloom and doom but the numbers have been turning positive for a little while now, right?[/quote]

I've noticed this as well.  Is it just that we're over our Christmas spike or dare I hope that vaccinations are having an effect?  I know not that many people have been vaccinated yet, but the ones who have in the first round were the most exposed (healthcare workers) and the most vulnerable (nursing home residents, elderly).  Can we keep going down?[/quote]

Hold your horses. Fairfax County had 705 new cases today and over 6,000 new cases in VA today.[/quote]

Look at the 7 day average.  The weekends are usually low and those numbers are reported on Monday. B

The nation is trending down. Fairfax is trending down too.[/quote]

Is it possible we are reaching herd immunity or the virus is weaker?  I can’t believe how many people I know who have recently had very mild cases of covid.  Almost everyone I know has had it whereas early on in the pandemic I didn’t know anyone.

I also posted on another thread that my parent is at a nursing home and covid rapidly spread through the nursing home.  Very few patients got seriously ill and most had asymptomatic cases.  This has raised my eyebrows.  [/quote]

It should raised your eyebrows, pp. I think when the truth gets out about how this virus was used to manipulate the public, it’s going to be ugly. [/quote]

...what?

What "raises eyebrows" is how little you value the lives of your fellow Americans when more than 410,000 died in less than a year, in you do not care. When literally a 9/11 death count happens every day for week after week, and you don't care, that raises MY eyebrows. When we have lost more Americans to COVID in less than a year than we lost in the entirety of WWII and that doesn't impact you, that raises my eyebrows.[/quote]
