All independent organisations give similar very low figures for China in last months. And when you compare with USA, it's just crazy !

brianp0803 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I think the US is not hospitalizing all patients and difficult to know when recovered. About 4 weeks ago the chart showed 1.2 million actIve cases. After 4 weeks I was curious how much the number recovered increased. The number recovered increased by about 200,000 or about 20% of the active cases from 4 weeks earlier. I would have thought that after 4 weeks that 80% of the cases should have reached a conclusion (recovered or dead). The chart shows very small percent of serious cases, but after 4 weeks the number recovered only increased by 20% of the active cases 4 weeks ago. Is only 20% recovering after 4 weeks realistic?

I mean a president who calls out to test less (later calls it a joke) plus all his other things is not really trustworthy. So neither are particularly trustworthy. The US lost his credit. One little clarification. It was Trump's aides who, struggling heroically to make their boss not look like the total moron he is, said that he was only kidding when he said he wanted testing slowed down. Trump, himself, said in an interview that he was not joking. "I don't kid", he said. Or think, apparently. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Leaving the blame game out of it, right now there needs to be as little travel as possible & then only for urgent business, which thanks to technology can be very small amount. To travel Internationally just for a holiday has to be a stupid action at this time 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aj73 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Perhaps check the testing counts on the countries in question. This is all logical. The United States has reported more cases... Wait for it... Wait for it... BECAUSE they've actually tested more people... But I digress, frankly who would want to travel on vacation and experience everything under Covid19 rules anyway?? The death rates according to these so called experts has me thinking we should all just openmouth-kiss and get on with it.. (that's sarcasm for you sensitive folks)... But whatever, let's all live our lives according to the Geopolitical and MSM Fearporn of the day.. Up next... Alien Invasion or Massive Swarms of Japanese Murder Hornets... I mean why the heck not right?! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Okay enough "did too.... did not" Here's a question: I'm American, have not been to USA in 3 years and have passport to prove it. Hangin in Thailand. Could I get a visa if I were inclined if I showed that evidence? Europe might be an attractive place to visit if there weren't other Americans there....

Mulambana Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Are they allowing travellers from India? It has low infection rate per million population but testing is also among the lowest. So, there is no a defiite conclusions. Jut the infection per million population cant be a criteria unless somehow that number is normaized for testing/million population.

kingofallasians Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Americans tend not to believe in science. This includes climate change. However, a Man in the Sky is no problem for them to accept. Other places did better than other states. California had decent leadership doing this. Hawaii has been really lucky to be isolated and the people here are super compliant and are taking the restrictions overboard. Doesn't surprise me that people in Florida do not care. The President really never took this seriously. We had ample time to prepare. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it because of money, kissing India's ass for access to its large consumer market, or some other criteria? That is my question. I know all the charts. No use of posting them again and again.
