  2. The disparity in how it affects some different than others is one reason it's scary.Covid targets young and healthy people at times just like it targets the elderly.Soon kids will be lined up in schools just like we were to get our polio vaccine.We got ours in a sugar cube.

  4. Cases are important but Hospitalizations is the number to watch.

    Things are progressing nicely - look forward to the Endless Summer of 2021 (YEAR from now)

  5. What is this 6.72% positivity rate? A percentage of COVID tests taken? A percentage of the state population? It would help if they would explain what it is percentage of.

  6. 6.72% is a fluff number they want to make a headline. What they fail to tell you is the number of test have tripled. This has lowered the percentage rate. They are in fact encouraging people with no symptoms to get tested to lower the percentage. While they love to advertise this percentage if you look at Wicomico and Worchester county the rates are increasing in the past week. I wonder why? Just go to Ocean City and take a look.

  7. I'm glad people are finally realizing this "positivity rate" is bogus.

    Yes, ICU bed usage and deaths are the important numbers. It's been proven "they" are lying about nursing home deaths though, wonder if the hospitals are lying about ICU bed use, just calling everything "acute care beds" or something to keep the governor's PR numbers looking good.

    Whichever way it is, you have to admit, politics are what are driving the stats, not actually medical numbers.

  8. 1:28 It wasn't OC. It was the protesters in Wic and Wor. If anyone's noticed the rate of African Americans testing positive is going up way compared to other races. In NY now contact tracers arent allowed to even ask if people were protesting.
