    Honestly that is the best situation for these kids to be in if they get the virus, they wont be living at home with mom and dad or grandma and grandpa. Ride it out for a few days and they are good to go to class.

    I won't do the vaccine, won't be getting a flu shot either. In 46 years I have never needed one, and I've managed to escape the most contagious virus in existence thus far, must be doing something right.

    Even though everyone says I'm doing everything wrong, crazy how that works.

    This is site I have been using, not government run. If they can get the data it goes down to the county.

    I am staring to lean to dnoodles thinking on this

    I used to ask for recovered numbers to be included, now I just want to know new hospitalization numbers.

    I had to get tested before surgery. Wouldn't have been tested otherwise.

    Where are the new numbers coming from amd why?

    In the beginning new numbers were all about people getting sick and one or more of a handful of symptoms.

    Now athletes, educators, people with their covid tracker on their phone on amd whatever number of hundreds of thousands if not millions are required to get a test while another tens of thousands plus can getva test just because.

    It's time to start showing the true stats to this Wuhan Bat Flu.

    New cases, new cases and more new cases. Yet, what is the rate of hospitalization with all yhese new cases. Start from scratch. Show new cases and hospitalizations from January 1st to April 30th. Then show May 1st to current(end of August if we must wait) day.

    14 days to slow the spread.

    Know what happens after that? The final 4 months then inauguration. Congressional Dems are trying to hold onto this until election day, no ifs, ands or buts about it.

    Yea I don't really keep up with it much, I just find it stupid the way things get reported. If someone test positive and then kicks it and has no more symptoms or is now negative that number should really be gone. I know guy I work with said his wife and ppl she works with got a call saying they may have have came in contact with someone who tested positive. So they asked what they should do and the health department said it had been long enough now that if there was no symtoms really no point in getting tested. So just for instance in that case say one of them went and got tested and showed they had it, well there another positive case to add despite the person really not being sick. If there's no symptoms and no need for treatment I dont really see a need to even mention it. I'm sure by now we've all been exposed in one way or another and probably have a good chance to test positive.

    Here are some numbers from Minnesota that I put down on a spreadsheet, the shaded blue numbers represent hard numbers that I was able to pull from the MN department of health website and a government website to get the population totals. That was from 2016. The non shaded numbers are 2020 Covid related, the confirmed positive cases and deaths come from the MN department of health website. I then added missed cases, because we do know that for every lab positive case there is a number "X" of missed cases because they were asymptomatic or not sick enough to get a test. I just thought these were interesting and would share them.
