But it's okay when you do it. Gotcha.7/30 was Friday, 7/31 and 8/1 were the weekend. That’s your cases dropping.
June 1st was 30 days ago? Dude..

and a whorehouse in Nevada. they couldnt make a profit off it. shuttered.Not at all surprising that you don't see the difference.
The Government has given Americans countless reasons not to trust them. They have failed to ever make a profit on Amtrak. They have spied on Americans for years. They have bailed out businesses they shouldn't have. They have weaponized agencies that go after political opponents. On, and on, and on.
The FDA provides a process that companies must follow to bring a drug to market. It is the PROCESS that makes the drugs "safe" to administer to humans, a PROCESS completed in Capitalist companies' labs, factories, and in the general public. It's not the GOVERNMENT making the drug or testing it.
If the Government was tasked with making the drugs and bringing them to market, then your asinine comment may have a minutia of bearing.

And we’re aren’t where we were 2 weeks ago, deaths are up 27%.Yes, 2 months ago. Point still stands, we aren't now where we were then.
The ultimate count is deaths. Always will be. Our 7 day deaths average now is still less than it was at the beginning of June.
On Jan 13, our 7 day deaths average, the highest of 2021, was 3,425 deaths per day. We are at 11% of that number.
The FDA also approved Zantac in 1983 after rigorous trials. There is no guarantee with any drug that long term adverse effects are not possible. Just because a drug has FDA approval does not make me feel any more secure.The FDA provides a process that companies must follow to bring a drug to market.

So this one cluster of infections that you believe supports your position is true, but the wealth of other stats I posted from numerous states showing that the vast majority of those infected and hospitalized are unvaccinated is what...fabricated?Massachusetts is 64% vaccinated. The study occurred in Cape Cod...a vacation town...that lures in people from other states the country over. We will never know how many there were from MA I fear.
In this PARTICULAR study, yes it does mean exactly that. From the CDC study:
During July 2021, 469 cases of COVID-19 associated with multiple summer events and large public gatherings in a town in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, were identified among Massachusetts residents; vaccination coverage among eligible Massachusetts residents was 69%. Approximately three quarters (346; 74%) of cases occurred in fully vaccinated persons (those who had completed a 2-dose course of mRNA vaccine [Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna] or had received a single dose of Janssen [Johnson & Johnson] vaccine ≥14 days before exposure). Genomic sequencing of specimens from 133 patients identified the B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in 119 (89%) and the Delta AY.3 sublineage in one (1%). Overall, 274 (79%) vaccinated patients with breakthrough infection were symptomatic. Among five COVID-19 patients who were hospitalized, four were fully vaccinated; no deaths were reported.
The degrees don't add up. 469 COVID cases were diagnosed out of a population of 64% vaccinated (assuming all cases were from MA residents). Therefore, 346 of those cases were vaccinated people. 123 were not vaccinated.
One would expect that the unvaccinated would represent a LARGER portion of the infected cases given so many people in MA are vaccinated. That 36% of unvaccinated people should have represented a larger number in this test. They did not.
And more worrisome....80% of those hospitalized were vaccinated. That should be the most telling stat.
And we’re aren’t where we were 2 weeks ago, deaths are up 27%.
Again, if you have data showing more naturally immune people are getting infected than vaccinated people, let's see it. Otherwise you're just throwing irrelevant **** at the wall in hopes it might stick. I'll be the first person to concede if I see that data. The fact that they're only willing to go 90 days is based on a CDC recommendation that is months outdated.They’re hedging their bets with natural immunity at 90 days, they’re not currently hedging their bets at all with the vaccine.

“While anecdotal cases and clusters can conjure concern around the vaccine, when put in the larger context of how many people have been vaccinated and the sheer volume of cases in the unvaccinated population, we recognize that the vaccines are working and how rare breakthroughs actually are,” said Dr. John Brownstein, the chief innovation officer at Boston Children's Hospital and an ABC News contributor.

That's what I've found too. So far so good.I have looked for reinfection data on the naturally immune. Every study follows a pattern (see below)
You can find studies like this, but I have a problem with their wording:

COVID-19 Reinfections Rare, Natural Immunity Lasts For Months: Pune Study - The Wire Science
The findings of the study are in line with others conducted across the world, but experts say neutralising antibodies may not be effective against variants of SARS-CoV-2.science.thewire.in
New Delhi: New Delhi: Reinfection among people who have recovered from COVID-19 is rare and natural immunity after illness lasts around nine months, a study involving long term follows up of more than 1,000 people in Pune has found.
According to the Times of India, a study conducted by epidemiologists and community medicine experts from the DY Patil Medical College and Hospital in the city tracked 1,081 people who showed SARS-CoV-2 antibodies during a serosurvey in September last year until this past June. During the nine months of observation, just 13 participants – just 1.2% – were reinfected. The study, which is still in pre-print, also found that all those who were reinfected only had mild cases of COVID-19 and made a full recovery.
-----------------
They say COVID immunity lasts around 9 months...then state the participants were observed for...9 months.
Each natural immunity study I've read follows the same wording. After 3 months studies, they say COVID immunity lasts 3 months. After a 9 month study, they say it lasts 9 months.
10:1 odds when they do a study next year, they will say "after an 18 month survey, it appears COVID immunity lasts...18 months."
Wow, stay classy Dems.

Dem strategist’s tweet about Lindsey Graham’s COVID diagnosis panned
Kate Coyne-McCoy, the chief strategist of the Rhode Island Democratic Party, faced swift criticism late Monday over a tweet about Sen. Lindsey Graham’s COVID-19 diagnosis.www.foxnews.com
Plus there is another mucus membraneA little while back Tim corrected me that the virus was now absolutely considered an airborne aerosols transmitted thing…
Funny how the cdc and who actively ignored the science and greatest scientific minds in that field for a while now

The 60-Year-Old Scientific Screwup That Helped Covid Kill
All pandemic long, scientists brawled over how the virus spreads. Droplets! No, aerosols! At the heart of the fight was a teensy error with huge consequences.www.google.com
i do some pm 10 and pm 2.5 testing on occasion… trust me not one mask you see in the grocery store is going to catch any pm 10 stuff, much less anything smaller…
the antimaskers tend to try to use the actual virus size to disprove mask effectiveness… and that is incorrect methodology , but the particulates they travel on are absolutely important and while masks might reduce tge larger droplets.. tgey do nothing against the aerosols… let me restate that… the standard cloth and surgical masks are not designed or able to stop aerosols at all… you need high grade respiratory stuff for that…
but that isn’t important.. what’s important is tgat both the cdc and who were completely dismissive of the actual science and experts until the worldwide data was unquestionably overwhelming … these aren’t organizations that are unbiased… they are politically charged and full of dogmatic thought
science says what the observed data says… it changes whenever new facts are discovered… dogmatic thought turns it quasi religious or political and that isn’t great
there is a real chance ten years down the road one or more of these vaccines are proven to be useful and safe… there is also a real possibility that they are not going to work or have bad long term side effects…
i think its very safe to say that the hardlining on it in either direction is probably stupid
This is the same short term data the left loves to uses to promote climate change.Someone have a decoder ring?
If I can interpret that gibberish....I'll again point out. Until we are in a dangerous place, we are not in a dangerous place.
As your President said - While cases will rise, hospitalizations and deaths will not comparably rise.
Again as much as it pains me to point out, he is right. The percentage increase in cases is far greater than the increases in deaths/hospitalizations.
Yes tge eyes are the third most frequent transmission entry point for viruses… and in cases of aerosols its very hard to protect against…. But the point is the cdc and who issued nonsense edicts despite multiple high level specialists telling them otherwise… thats not great news… yes the cdc tries to mitigate panic factor… but they literally put people in greater risk by convincing them that masks and social distancing is safe…

that should have been major news that was plastered everywhere
Yes, and thanks to the vaccine for that. BUT… cases are up 700+%, in what, six weeks? It didn’t have to be this way. Gibberish is “ a dangerous place”.Someone have a decoder ring?

how far have deaths be rise?Yes, and thanks to the vaccine for that. BUT… cases are up 700+%, in what, six weeks? It didn’t have to be this way. Gibberish is “ a dangerous place”.
