"Like a Miracle, it will be gone"

Just a little reminder, Trump said early on that it would be like a weaker flu. With most death rates below 1% of known cases, it seems like a pretty accurate statement. Then some said it would burn itself out during summer. Per the calendar that started about 10 days ago. Trump may still be right on that as well. In a couple months we will really know.

Is this so called second wave a result of more testing? Surely that explains at least some of it. How about protestors being exposed to the virus by ANTIFA manipulators? There are many reasons for an increase and most aren't being discussed.

1. This is not the second wave. It is an uptick in the first wave.
2. The uptick is not caused by simply counting more cases. If that were true then the percentage of tests showing negative results would be going up. Instead, the percentage of positive tests is going up. That means the virus is spreading rapidly.
3. Waving your hands and saying that there are many reasons not being discussed will not make the problem go away. It is real science and real statistics, not the convenient science and statistics you believe in.
4. The miracle disappearance of the virus your beloved leader told you about is not going to happen. Sorry.

And again, first click testing, then click percent positive, now look at maybe 5 states that show a slight rise. Use all the information before spewing your BS main stream fear porn. OMG WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!! Yes, eventually we will all die. So lets isolate until 2022 then we can all starve to death first.

Just so you know, all the stats I'm talking about are on the "graphics.reuters.com/HEALTH-CORONAVIRUS/USA-TRENDS/dgkvlgkrkpb/" that are posted here. Also look at the dramatic increase in testing graph above the one I just mentioned.

Woke up yesterday feeling like someone was sitting on my chest. Called the doc and they sent me to get tested. I’m pretty sure I have a pulmonary embolism and not Covid but they won’t even look at me for that until I test negative. This is stupid and just may kill me.

Sorry to hear that. I presume this is the VA?

Not the VA. Just stupid Covid rules that they won’t break. I’m allowed to go to ER if oxygen goes to low but can’t go to my doctor. I guess I can understand as he works with a lot of cancer patients

Do you have an oximeter If so, what is your oxygen saturation?

PE's are super painful (I had 12) and can be deadly. Go to the ER ASAP if you think you have one or more and tel them you can't breathe. That can move to your brain so don't take no for an answer! I got very lucky and was treated fast (before the ACA debacle).
