webfact Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 WHO reports record daily increase in global coronavirus cases, up over 230,000 FILE PHOTO: A woman wears a protective face mask outside at a shopping plaza after New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said he would sign an executive order requiring people to wear face coverings outdoors to prevent a resurgence of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), in Edgewater, New Jersey, U.S., July 8, 2020. REUTERS/Mike Segar (Reuters) - The World Health Organization reported a record increase in global coronavirus cases on Sunday, with the total rising by 230,370 in 24 hours. The biggest increases were from the United States, Brazil, India and South Africa, according to a daily report. The previous WHO record for new cases was 228,102 on July 10. Deaths remained steady at about 5,000 a day. Global coronavirus cases were approaching 13 million on Sunday, according to a Reuters tally, marking another milestone in the spread of the disease that has killed more than 565,000 people in seven months.

genset Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) It seems logical that an increase in established testing procedures would result in an increase of reported infections (people are now being routinely tested when they are admitted as in-patients to Hospitals in Florida as an example. Whether they are admitted for elective surgery, show any signs of viral infection or not). Unsurprisingly conspicuous in it's absence from main stream media reports (who seemingly want to continue milking this story for all it's worth); is the reported mortality rate, which by all accounts has plummeted to around 0.26%, do facts matter any more..?

Rose wrote on Facebook that he was experiencing COVID-19 symptoms on July 1 and went to get tested. The US Army veteran tested positive and died from the virus at his home just two days later. But before Rose's death, he voiced his support for President Donald Trump, slammed the Black Lives Matter movement and accused Democrats of spreading false information about the pandemic. He also claimed on April 28 that the pandemic was just 'hype', saying: 'Let make this clear. I'm not buying a f**king mask.

Then just 28 days to reach 3,000,000 cases. At this rate, US will reach 4,000,000 cases in two weeks. Florida is now the epicenter of not just the US, but of the world.

Herd immunity should have been allowed from the start IMO. Though "cases" are growing, death rates are NOT. so in reality they are practicing herd immunity in many areas of the USA and will likely not need the vaccine when it becomes available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You base your assertion on CFR (Case Fatality Rate) which is not representative of the actual risk we are exposed to. Of relevance is the IFR (Infection Fatality Rate = Number people who succumbed/ Number of people infected), which most researchers estimate at 0.6%/0.7%. I say estimate because we still don't have solid figures on the number of asymptomatic COVID carriers. But I can forgive you since you are supposed to be Thai, hence less anal about numbers than us Farang. For instance Thais understand that the official zero domestic COVID cases means "not many, but still enough to wear masks." while we Farang understand zero as "dead centre between +infinity and -infinity". 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's the most important part of this pandemic - cancer, heart disease and the such are not communicable, whereas Covid is extremely so. And the argument that it's only 1% fatal is not taking into account all the collateral damage. For every 1 death, 19 more require hospitalization; 18 of those will have some permanent heart damage for the rest of their lives; 10 will have permanent lung damage; 3 will have strokes; 2 will have neurological damage leading to chronic weakness and loss of coordination. Stay at home, wear a mask if you have to go out, observe social distancing and wash your hands. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you're doing by not quoting the two sentences of the report in your link; refer below. However, the countries with the highest number of child deaths are among the most corrupt, so far as I know government corruption is not a remit for WHO. "Substantial global progress has been made in reducing child deaths since 1990. The total number of under-5 deaths worldwide has declined from 12.6 million in 1990 to 5.3 million in 2018. On average, 15 000 children under-5 die each day compared with 34 000 in 1990. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
