    You are so full of it, since this pandemic began you’ve been downplaying its severity


    Mass. Reports 2,841 More COVID-19 Cases as Surge Continues

    Health officials reported 2,841 new confirmed COVID-19 cases -- setting another high-water mark of daily reported cases for the fall -- and 27 more deaths Saturday, as the rising surge in
    cases of the coronavirus continues in Massachusetts.

    The death toll in the state now stands at 10,293, and the total number of cases of COVID-19 has jumped to 180,468, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health's daily report.

    since the pandemic began.


    Another 228 deaths not listed in the confirmed total are considered probably linked to COVID-19, according to Saturday's report.

    Which proves that some people were intelligent enough (unlike yourself) to (a) wear face masks whilst out, (b) Social distance with friends and neighbours, (c) don't participate in crowded events.

    See, you are still doing it

    You are supposed to be wearing masks when you are home with your family, that's the most important time, where most of the new infections are occuring.

    That's why the US and UK are in the state they are in.

    And almost all of those mask mandates, both in US or UK say either outside or in public places

    So either they are just that negligent, or the whole time they have just been managing the panic, not the virus and knew full well masks outside just make people feel safer

    If you add up all of those probables which will never be listed in the official record as COVID-19 deaths,
    the numbers would be in the thousands.

    CDC study says tons of people catch COVID-19 in the one place that’s supposed to be safe
    • The CDC published a new coronavirus study that looked at the infection rate inside the household.
    • Researchers found that 102 out of 191 people who came in contact with a sick person contracted COVID-19, with transmission likely occurring inside the home.
    • 75% of the secondary household infections happened within 5 days, and researchers observed “substantial transmission” whether the first patient was a child or an adult.

    Sheltered, But Infected: How Can You Catch COVID-19 Staying Home?


    They are not using public transport; No buses, trains, or airplanes. They are not nurses, doctors, or other essential workers. Many have been sheltering at home for months.

    Why, then, are two out of every three people infected with COVID-19 at home?

    How people who seem to be following sheltering guidelines can contract coronavirus remains a perplexing problem. A recent New York survey found that 66% of people with COVID-19 infection are sheltering in place

    .....or.....

    The 228 refer to non Covid excess deaths due to essential services being shut down in part as health department instructions and in part to make way for Covid wards, and they want to sweep that under the carpet for now

    You are trying to tell me that at the present time the state of Massachusetts is unable to swab 228 corpses

    Yeah let’s just take a swab and send the specimen to a state lab (whose employee's are overworked, under paid, and who's facilities are vastly under funded)
    or send the swab off to a private lab at $200 hundred dollars a test, just to satisfy our need to prop-up the number of coronavirus deaths.

    Well, the number of daily deaths in your state doesn't seem to have gotten past 40 since July, so I have my....

    ....wait, is that 228 since March?

    Which makes complete sense since the average age of new coronavirus patients has dropped precipitously since May.

    But with hospitalizations for covid-19 on the rise including 153 in the ICU, and 71 patients currently on a ventilator expect those numbers to rise sharply
    over the next few weeks.

    My point was you seem to have no idea how these trials are conducted and you think we don't either.
    Why would you give a test drug aimed at a specific disorder to an individual with multiple health issues to see if it worked?

    See, this is the headline, this is what you get

    US biomedical giant Moderna has announced its vaccine candidate for COVID-19 is around 95 per cent effective, adding to hopes of an end to the COVID-19 pandemic

    Coronavirus Australia LIVE: South Australia cluster, NT, Qld, Tasmania, WA close borders


    You'll have 100s of millions, billions around the world who will now just think, cool, as soon as we get the vaccine, pandemic is over

    Might take any of them a mere 10 minutes, 1 hr tops to get on the internet, investigate and understand what 95% actually means

    99% won't even bother doing that

    You and Vlad are in this thread recently obviously because there is no one left in the Trump threads to argue with

    Biden won the election, so why are you still fuming?

    I tell you why, because you know I'm right, Biden has no Covid plan, a national mask mandate that already isn't working in many states, fuckin pathetic

    Now run along now and don't mess up this thread with garbage no one cares about anymore

    Your irrational beliefs, devotion to Trumpism, and rejection of scientific progress tells me you suffer from quidnunc behavior syndrome which is commonly seen in eastern Kentucky and southern West Virginia populations where poorly educated people wander around aimlessly without a purpose in life.
