The Mississippi State Department of Health reported 914 new cases of the Wuhan virus yesterday as well as 11 new deaths.   The total number of cases is 29,684. The virus has caused 1,103 deaths. Nursing home deaths comprise 50% of overall Covid-19 deaths in Mississippi. There are 19,388 recoveries.  More information and a complete list of infected counties can be found at the MSDH website.  The Rt factor is 1.13.

  Hospitalizations, ICU's, and vents remained the same.


 The Rt factor declined somewhat but is still above 1.0.

Friday national numbers. 721k Tests new high by a bunch. 58k Positive. Also new high. Wonder how high the number of tests can go and if we will see a shortage of testing ability.

Total number of cases=29,684
Deaths=1,103
Recoveries=19,388

Something does not add up.
We have about 9,000 people missing.
What happened to them?

There are not "19,388 recoveries," the MDH claims there are 19,388 presumed recoveries. Big, big difference and it matters on a number of levels. But since it seems that facts and science no longer matter to most people, the very best of luck to anyone who happens to read this.

The seven day average for deaths is starting to rise. Not surprising as secondary and tertiary infections after Memorial Day are going to be the at risk parents and grandparents the little party animals brought the disease home to. Look for things to be much worse about August 15 as the July 4 explosion works its way to the at-risk and into the nursing homes through the workers.

I suspect we will break 1500 a day when the selfish people return from their holiday weekend in Florida when then bring more of the virus back to MS.

9:52 The 9,000 aren’t missing. They still have active COVID infections.

Nope, methinks the Covid-19 cases just last week from our legislature will raise some eyebrows.

Party boat at Lake Caroline, anyone?

9:52: 9,000 infected people. not dead and not recovered. Derp.

go to data.cms.gov and look at the numbers of covid deaths in nursing homes. I can tell you without doubt that those numbers are whacked! I run a nursing home that has had 1 covid related death (resident was on hospice and terminal with congestive heart failure), but cms is reporting that we have had 16 covid related deaths. If you go to CMS's nursing home search map and look up our nursing home, the drop down stat window says we have 5 covid related deaths. This is either complete incompetence or a conspiracy!

We are earning our herd immunity.

I don't know what you people are complaining about. The virus is unburdening us of the poor, sickly, and old. The non-producers. Look at every vulnerable demographic and you will see that they are all most likely to be tax takers rather than payers.

You know it would be nice if there was a line on that chart showing how many people were tested. Would put the numbers in context.

meanwhile in Europe and Asia and Canada, New Zealand..it’s under control. i guess they all believe that they are a commmunity not just a collection of individuals.

All these protesters out in the streets yelling, spitting & NSD is causing this spike. I just wonder how make young protesters brought the COVID-19 virus home to momma & Daddy?

11:44, it is a conspiracy to control the population both by fear and by actual sickness. And yes, it did start in a Chinese lab for the wrong purposes.

If they ain't dead or hospitalized, they've recovered, correct? Got it.

At best, 230,882,715 of US citizens will have to be immune from CV 19 to achieve " herd immunity". It more likely will be 10% at least more than that.

Now, look at our current rates of testing. Look at how long it takes to immunize once a new vaccine is on the market.

And, then, realize how incredibly foolish you are to depend on this happening anytime soon and the cost that this will take on a Nation.

And, I hope when this is over and you are one that wouldn't be governed, you'll look in the mirror and know YOU did this to our Nation.

The idiots who believe the numbers coming from overseas, I have a bridge at Chappaquiddick to sell you.

Good grief at you conspiracy theorists. Somehow this paranoid style of thinking has become mainstream in our society. I honestly fear for the future of this place, not because of Covid but because you people don’t trust science, the academy, journalism, government, etc. All sources of authority are decaying under your relentless assault. You are actively destroying the fabric of this country you damn lunatics. Get a grip.

@9:52, was it the math or logic class that you skipped while supposed to be in school.

Lets try it this way:

Cases minus deaths minus recoveries equals THOSE STILL SICK.

Now, does that help make it add up?

OK, let's assume for the moment that this virus was created in a Chinese lab.

So, explain why that would matter as to preventing its transmission? Would those of you who will not wear masks and practice distancing do so if it were proven to have originated there? If you truly believe that it is some Chinese weapon, it would seem it would make you more intent on defeating it, not less so. And if you truly believe that and don't do everything you can to defeat it, aren't you actually being the real traitor to the country you claim to love and the way of life you claim to hold so dear?

I mean, after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor, would you have said, "well, it's over...we lost, they won, let's just surrender..."?

UMC is now counting "probable cases" as confirmed cases. Using this arbitrary number, the cases will continue to be artificially high in perpetuity.

July 4 at 1:20 p.m. I witnessed a small pontoon boat leaving the dock next to Tommy's Trading Post carrying, count them, thirteen passengers.

"9:52 - The 9,000 aren’t missing. They still have active COVID infections." Where the hell are these people? Please post their coordinates!

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
