You are aware that the c****a v***s test does not test specifically for the SARS-CoV-2 v***s. It tests for any c****a v***s. According to the CDC, there are hundreds of different strains of c****a v***ses, most of which only cause minor respiratory problems.

Cases are not the same as death. Lower your immunity with a mask if you want to and leave us with the ability to make our own decisions which will differ from yours. But that isn't what you really want, you want total control. We know that too. The left and Dems are control freaks. The more you control the more you can steal.

Control of C-19 yes, why do you want to spread C-19 where some people will die?

Hey libby, I'm as informed as can be to say there are some red states maxing their hospitals out right now, and with their new cases hitting increasing records deaths will be a few weeks behind...of course the right can say look what happened to deaths when Biden took office.

C***D Cases Are Rising. C***D Deaths Are Declining. Why?
Cases of c****av***s are increasing in 20 states, with dramatic spikes found in places from Florida to California. Even so, overall deaths due to c****av***s are on the decline in the U.S. Part of that is thanks to how much better things are finally getting in New York, the former national epicenter of the p******c. But even in some places where cases are spiking, the number of people checking into hospitals and dying of the c****av***s is actually stable, or even going down. What’s going on?

This isn’t as weird as it sounds. We’re in a hellish experiment: The more cases of c****av***s, the better our understanding of how deadly the v***s is. Right now, as science journalist Smriti Mallapaty outlines in Nature, estimates for the overall case fatality rate for the c****av***s are converging around 0.5-1 percent. Though some experts think it’s still too early to pin down a range, that number is markedly lower than the early estimates of CFR of 4 percent from W***n, China. Why? As total case counts started to include patients with mild or no symptoms, the number of people who were known to survive the v***s grew. Beyond an expansion of testing, the CFR can be hard to pin down for another reason, notes Mallapaty—it doesn’t k**l people uniformly. It’s easier to survive the v***s if you have access to good health care; harder if, say, structural r****m denies you good treatment. The v***s also affects different groups of people differently—it’s far more deadly to older people, for example.

This all means a spike in c****av***s cases in any particular location doesn’t necessarily lead to more people dying. In fact, if you look at many of the graphs of case counts and deaths on the New York Times’ c****av***s map, the lines are doing different things. In Arizona, as cases rise, deaths are remaining relatively flat, with the highest number of deaths in a day happening back in May. Alabama saw a recent spike in deaths to accompany a jump in cases, but not as big as the spike in death, also back in May, when case counts were relatively low. In Florida, which hit its highest number of cases yesterday (2,783), the death rate appears to be falling slightly.

Hospital Bankruptcies Leave Sick and Injured Nowhere to Go

Most U.S. Hospitals Are Empty. Soon They Might Be Closed for Good
Tens of thousands of health care workers across the United States are going without pay today, even as providers in the nation's hot spots struggle to contain the c****av***s p******c

This "tale of two hospitals" is a function of clumsy, if well-intentioned, federal and state directives to halt all non-emergency procedures, which appeared at first blush to be a reasonable precaution to limit unnecessary exposure and safeguard staff, beds and equipment.

But instead of merely preserving hospital beds and other resources, this heavy-handed injunction has created a burden of its own design: a historic number of empty beds in systems left untouched by the p******c.

Those hospitals have resorted to unprecedented levels of furloughs to stave off temporary budget shortfalls, but industry and economic trends point to more lasting outcomes unless immediate action is taken.

At 18 percent of the U.S. economy, health care is a $3.6 trillion industry annually. By barring all elective surgeries, which covers a huge array of operations, like knee reconstructions or even cancer biopsies, hospitals have been denied billions in revenue in just the last month alone.

Outpatient services account for half of all hospital revenue, which means hospitals are now making, and spending, half what they were this time last year.

It's not surprising, then, that the industry shed a record 43,000 health care workers in the first month of this crisis. Experts expect equal or greater layoffs this month, when the sustained forbearance has made revenue even more urgent.

Even before this crisis, one in four rural hospitals were vulnerable to closure. Now, many of these rural systems have more empty beds than ever before.

It doesn't take an economist to understand the underlying economics here. And it won't just be rural health care that will suffer—hospitals in every corner of the country might close for good.

The c****av***s will continue to spread throughout the United States, but our ability to treat and prevent its t***smission will be severely constrained if as-yet-unaffected hospitals resort to mass layoffs. We need to sustain robust staffing in every corner of this country—and prohibiting elective surgeries outright is wildly counterproductive.

Understand: The availability of clinicians in hot spots like New York City, New Orleans and Detroit is no more an urgent public health crisis than health care staffing everywhere else because when this is over these patients will still require dialysis, chemotherapy and other life-saving treatments.

Health care has historically weathered economic downturns in stride because people get sick even in depressions, but this is unlike previous slumps. In the past 30 years, there have been only four months where the industry destroyed jobs. What used to be the worst case, in 2003, was just one-quarter of the losses experienced in March.

Hospitals are in the business of treating patients, but few are any more—which means more furloughs are ahead unless and until hospitals are allowed to perform their basic function: provide health care.

Because one in eight Americans is employed in health care, the fastest way to get Americans back to work is to allow hospitals to treat patients. Allowing these workers to get back on hospital payrolls will also save the federal government as much as $2 billion a day through safety net benefits.

When we've defeated the c****av***s, chronic disease will still be there, lurking in our communities. But health care's footprint—large and small, rural and urban alike—will be forever changed by this crisis unless our government gets out the way and allows doctors to go about their business of healing patients.

After all, it's doctors and patients who should make decisions about care, not bureaucrats.

The odds of death have dropped dramatically. I guess your news sources never report that.
