Nope, but you can be damn sure they'll hammer it into the ground (no pun intended), if they die... Frown

With the increased testing here in the Yoop, the rate of positives vary from .097% to 1.25%, which changes day to day.
No info at all on how many of these positives are or were asymptomatic.
In the sea of lies about COVID, it is the one missing statistic.
Marquette Co population is 66K+. 132 (May be updated later today) infections. Mask up! Roll Eyes

I'll say it again, if we increased IQ tests, we would have a massive surge in positive cases of morons. Symptomatic or otherwise.

They've proven they'll "hammer it into the ground" even if these people die of auto accidents. The numbers are cooked, the lies are continuous, and the 'real' goals are becoming clearer each and every day for those willing to see them.

No there are plenty of morons or those with below room temperature IQs. Intelligence is a Bell Shaped curve. You need a better analogy.

That is the one stat they obviously don't want to release since it would show exactly how badly they have lied and hyped this whole thing.

They are reporting the statistics that favor their policies. They are expecting us to accept them face value and the news media faithfully gives the numbers every evening. How is it that we could do so much with statistics when it comes to keeping track of Earned Run Averages, times at bat, number of pitches thrown etc.

Some data for the deplorable COVID-19 skeptics:

US Daily % Positive Covid-19 Tests vs New Daily Tests:

US Weekly Hospitalization Rates

What underlying medical conditions (comorbidities) are at work:

And finally, from a study in Denmark of their first 9,519 hospitalizations and deaths published in May - not yet peer reviewed and Denmark is not the US but they have interesting way to look who is at risk. I wish I could find a similar study in the US:

Got an email from my employer today. Along with all the masks and face shields they have and are getting in, they are also in the process of ordering safety goggles, for the upcoming fall flu season.

...and all of this- all of it- was unnecessary.

I say in all seriousness- lots of people need to hang.

Here's your feel-good-story of the day:

A Karen throws coffee in the victim's face because he's eating a burrito without a mask on so then the victim punches her boyfriend "Ken". Big Grin

quote:

Bloody brawl breaks out after woman throws coffee in man’s face for not wearing mask


The brawl was all caught on video, recorded by James Hernandez’s bodycam, which he says he has to wear as a Trump supporter.

“Because I wear a trump hat I’ve had a lot of confrontations, I guess,” he said.

His camera was rolling on Friday when he says he and his friend, Matthew Roy, were eating burritos outside without masks on, and a couple criticized them.

“Y’all need to be wearing masks,” the woman can be heard saying.

“No we don’t,” Hernandez replies. “We’re locals here but were on the other side of the fence, we don’t believe in this stuff.”

“I hadn’t even gotten to start eating the burrito yet before someone wanted to give me a mask lecture,” Roy said.

“I guess the guy really wanted to impress his girlfriend because I was pretty dismissive, I thought when I turned my back on them they would just move on, but he wanted to stand there and engage me.” Wink


Roy says the woman then stuck her middle finger in his face, and tensions escalated further until she threw her coffee in his face.

Roy immediately gets up, and begins punching the woman’s boyfriend in response.

“She decided to slam her coffee into my head and that’s when I decided to get up and beat up her boyfriend,” Roy said.

“I got a few licks in and I have brothers at home and as soon as the gentleman or the gentler man said stop, I did, I backed off.”

The bloodied man called police and reported he’d been assaulted.

Police responded, but no arrests were made.

“They really wanted to force us to put a mask on, they just thought we were killing their grandma,” Hernandez said.

“Nobody really believes in the masks, but everybody is scared of Ken and Karen and I’m not, I don’t care anymore,” Roy said.

The men told FOX 11 they declined to press charges.

Manhattan Beach PD told FOX 11 no arrests were made, and no charges are pending.

I don't know how anyone is able to do that yet. I've tried my damndest to ignore the insanity and just live like the world hasn't gone insane, but it's simply not possible, even in Utah.

"Karen" is really the one who needed her ass kicked. By the guy she threw coffee on and then later by her boyfriend for getting his ass kicked because of her Smile

I have at least tried. Mostly I work and ignore the dictators and those afflicted with Covid-19 mass hysteria. I walk in without a mask and if asked to leave more than once, I do. Lots of places around me leave me alone.
