Thank you for keeping the stats updated for us. The Health Dept is slow on the weekend.

Okay, we're on the downhill slide. Those who got it are now immune and can't carry or spread it. Time to go back to work!

NOW!

5:57. Curious how you know that those who got it are immune and can’t spread it? That would be great.

Why is it that they are telling us that less than 2 percent die from corona virus and in Maryland over 6 % are dying . Are they running up the numbers to scare us or for the $$$$$$$$$$$$

Must have been 100k on board walk yesterday. It was insane. Probably most from out of state.

A typical viral response would be if you've had it you would have immunity. Research is still ongoing but by studying cells obtained from recovered patients it looks positive that this virus wouldn't be any different. Studies are also being done to determine if the immunity will be long term.

I am thinking because in some counties like Montgomery nursing homes got hit bad. 75 percent of the deaths there were nursing home residents. One thing we know for sure about this virus is the elderly are likely to have a worse outcome.

You know I'm tired of hearing all this nonsense talking out of both sides of they're mouths... They have the numbers going up here fast we have the state opening up I work in the beach area and this weekend I saw 35-40% of the cars were from out of state another large amount were definitely from across the bridge and I had 7 new yorkers visiting for the week in my neigborhood! It's mandatory to wear a mask oops no it's not it's unconstitutional for me to say that wtf already!!! I don't care what political party you are we are all Americans and we need to come together and fix this shit!!!!!!!

I know you are very confused.
The media and government are lying to us everyday about this financial reset. The Fed counterfeit the US Dollar since 1971 so now they need a reset.

Don’t worry about the virus.

2:23 Number of cases going up is because more tests are being done. What is important is the percentage of positive/negative cases. The number of hospitalization has peaked and is going down. That is the metric used to determine when to reopen.
Keep in mind just like in MD other states had clusters. On Delmarva with a few anomalies cases were limited to the chicken plants and those associated. In NY it was NYC we were hearing about. NY is a big state. Some areas saw very few cases. Even in NYC Manhattan had low numbers. The cases were mostly in low income neighborhoods of Brooklyn Queens. Those people don't go to the beaches. It's not to say anyone can't get it have it. That is why it is best to stay 6ft from someone you don't know. Face masks aren't required to be worn outside
