My 92 year old mother is losing her marbles over all of this. She sends a morning “I’m alive” email to the kids, and she goes on and on and on..... It’s really a problem and we are all trying talk her off the ledge.

Where are the daily numbers for Ohio? Not doing those anymore?

Nah. Coronavirus is suspended until the protest and riots are over. Scheduled to resume the fear mongering in the fall. Should last right until after the election. If Trump loses it will be all peace and harmony and it will be safe again to go outside.

Updated yesterday at 2pm. Assume it will be updated again today at 2pm.

Saw a meme that said the Coronavirus should be renamed the Cotton-eyed Joe Virus because where did it come from, where did it go?

The lockdowns were a disaster. Totally destroyed the economy, small businesses, millions of livelihoods, etc.

Just like there was going to be a HUGE spike after the beaches were reopened, I'm sure that there will be a huge spike after zero social distancing and mediocre mask wearing at the insurrections........uh, wait......
(Apologies to Lamont who I just saw made the same point previously)

The authors of two major medical studies on coronavirus patients— including one that raised global concerns about the use of the hydroxychloroquine — retracted their papers on Thursday. The journals that published the studies said the authors were unable to get full access to the database behind their work to verify the raw data.

Huh, I wonder if the follow the science crowd is still following the science.

Norway, with a couple hundred deaths is saying perhaps they should have not locked down so hard.

Sweden with almost 4,600 deaths is saying perhaps they should have locked down more.

I would certainly hope so. The day we stop listening to science is the day that "alternative facts" become real. BTW, did you read the article you cited, or just the headline?
