Trump is the harbinger of death..
it is for the MSM to keep trumpeting the increase in the number of Covid cases as a result of increased texting, and then failing to mention that, as a result, the death percentages and hospitalization percentages are down? Rather duplicitous if you ask me. Overall death rate is now less than 2%, and that's including the poorly run blue states like NY where it is much higher. Many of the new cases are so mild they don't warrant hospitalization or treatment, just isolation for the safety of others.
At Trump's Phoenix rally there's no sign so far of temperature checks, masks being offered or any social distancing.
And if our COVID numbers are so much better than anyone but you thinks, how come the US has only 4% of the world's people but 25% of the COVID cases? And why is the EU strongly considering keeping its ban on travelers from the US?
Its because we have stepped up testing recently in order to discover and identify new cases and other countries have not increased testing, so they may have just as many, but like here a few months ago, they are thus far undiscovered, so put them together and what have you got? I mentioned that we had increased in the OP, but you most have missed that, and as a result, missed the point.
Not to mention that Europe actually has done millions of tests. Here's a graph that shows it by country. We've tested 27 million as of a few days ago, which is less than 10% of our population.
You really should seek help for your TDS. it keeps you from seeing the obvious.
have a clue and post something with even a sliver of truth to it? C'mon, Nick, you know better than that. I have completely stopped wasting my valuable time on him.
Very noble of you, but he will learn nothing from your posts, no matter how enlightening.
Based on the stats from https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/full-list-total-tests-for-covid-19?tab=table the US has performed 25% of all tests in the world, which is 8.3% of our total population.
Yes, based on data as of June 23 or last reported data, a few countries have tested a larger portion of their population and they are, ranked by percentage of population tested: Bahrain (28.5%), Luxembourg, Iceland, Denmark, Lithuania, Russia, Qatar, Portugal, Singapore, Belarus, Israel and Kuwait (8.4%). Together these countries have a total population of 198.4M and they administered 23.5M tests.
For European countries not listed above, and all mathematically ranked lower than the 8.3% for the US: Italy, Ireland, Estonia and Belgium have also tested 8% of their population. Spain tested 7%. UK, Germany and Switzerland tested 6%. And the rest are 5% down to 1% of their population.
-By percentage of population tested the US is ranked 13th, but has administered 25% of the tests reported worldwide.
-The top 13 countries ranked by percentage of population tested have a population of 529M and reported administering 51.0M tests, or 6.8% of the world’s population and 47% of all tests reported.
-China and all other countries out that have NOT reported administering any tests have a total population of 4.7B. This does not mean they have not tested, but they are not open about the number of tests.
-France is one of the countries NOT reporting administering any tests. So, can the rest of Europe trust France on July 1 when EU borders open?
-In the EU, only 7 countries tested a larger portion of their population than the US, 4 are slightly below the US, and 30 countries have tested 5% of less of their population. Can the EU really trust that the total number of people who have or had C-19 is really known in these other EU countries?
-The EU is strongly considering baring the US, Russia and Brazil, but US and RU have administered 42% of reported tests in the world. See point above about France and most of the EU.
-When considering the whole picture, as testing increased in the US, the number of reported cases increase, but as I posted elsewhere, it does not matter if a person had C-19 and is now well or has C-19 and is sick, if the test results indicate anti-bodies it counts as a case of C-19 for reporting purposes. And, by the method used to administer tests, those more likely or at highest risk of C-19 are a majority of the people being tested, but in the US the trend over the last month is that less than 12% of tests administered show a person had or has C-19. Until the rest of Europe and the world has tested 8%+ of their population, we cannot say that things are better everywhere else. We can only comment on how bad things appear here until 100% of our population has been tested.
“Trump”eting an increase of COVID case due to texting (on Twitter.). Pretty funny stuff there. Of course I agree with you that Trumps total ineptitude caused a lot of death and pain in our country.
Trump is the harbinger of death..
current COVID-19 hot spots like:
Arizona??
Florida??
Texas??
Hmmm, not sure about that. But for SURE in that riot hot spot and blue state of Minnesota, eh? Oh wait... not there, either!
