The big chart flattened for a day.
Compare these two charts: Cases and deaths by day.

Wuhan has pretty much gone viral.
Kingfish, it would be an interesting thought experiment to compare Mississippi with more advanced societies like Japan or South Korea, that basically have the virus under control.
Why would you compare a third world shit hole flyover state to an “advanced society?”
Considering this, looks like no college football in Mississippi this fall. Would any of you want to sit in the September heat and be exposed to CV-19?
Since when is Missippi, an advance society?
“only”
Can't wait to leave Mississippi. Just waiting on my retirement check. What a bunch of idiots who can't even tolerate a simple facemask. For real, if you could be from anywhere else, it wouldn't be Mississippi, right?
Al Gore invented science deniers from Mississippi.
“Only” Gotcha. Sad to see the day those numbers are considered low. Next two days will be under 500 cases and 10 deaths because of the weekend. Look for numbers on Tuesday (Monday) to be 1,500 cases and 50 deaths. It’s out of control.
7:12 - It's fine... Next week, some people, in some counties, might start wearing masks! Problem solved!
Just read about a lady that was taken to the ER not feeling well. Waited 2 hours out side of the hospital and finally gave up and went home. She got a call the next day saying that she tested positive for the virus 🦠. She was never tested. Somebody is playing with the numbers. Go figure!
Heh, it’s almost like the more we test, the more we find out damned near everyone has been exposed and is immune.
JJ, I read where in NYC they did test on the sewage and concluded that 20% of NYC had already had Covid 19.
Do you know if we are running similar test in Jackson and if not, why not? If so, how often are they testing? And what are those results?
One wonders why all the data collection from the Mississippi State Department of Health is so worthless. Where is the knowledge that we can all use that should come from all their efforts? Sure, it shows that nursing home have been hit. That is a no-brainer. But where is useful information for all their efforts? A computer could pop out with the data that they produce.
By contrast, some public health departments and journalists are now plumbing the data elsewhere and coming up with useful data. Lyndsay Winkley from the San Diego Union Tribune is doing just that. She is posting the sources of outbreaks in San Diego County. Her latest summaries are just what commonsense would dictate but which is going unwritten. Sources of outbreaks: restaurant/bar, restaurant/bar, restaurant/bar (you get the picture, times 16); grocery store; healthcare; gym; resort/spa; business.
There is a roadmap here if you want to avoid COVID.
@8:08, care to post a link to this credible source reporting that?
@8:52, it's almost like you are full of it and you know it. If we are immune, why are the cases higher than ever? Common sense should not the enemy.

A friend of mine (ER Nurse) said that kind of mislabeling happens daily. The nurse said Covid is by all means real and something to be taken very seriously.
But for each covid case a hospital reports, they get "x" amount of money from the Feds.
I have no idea if that's true, but I worked for a state agency that did the same thing with certain
applicants seeking that agency's services.
What's the cliche ?
(follow the money)
I just got back from the gun show at the Coliseum, and was astonished to find that the promoters weren't enforcing a mask requirement. Only about half the people there were wearing masks. I didn't stay long, and it definitely wasn't $9 worth of fun.
12:28: No, the virus is the enemy that steals jobs you dolt, not Dr. Fauci or Dr. Brix. Until we crush the. Until we crush the curve we will not be in a position to save all the jobs. Only a Trump cultivist would blame the effects of the virus on the two Doctors who are saving lives.
