webfact Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 California surpasses New York as worst-hit state in coronavirus cases By Anurag Maan and Shaina Ahluwalia FILE PHOTO: Few people wear masks as they walk on the beach pier during the global outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Oceanside, California, U.S., June 22, 2020. REUTERS/Mike Blake/File Photo (Reuters) - California on Wednesday overtook New York, the original epicenter of the nation's outbreak, as the worst-hit state for cases of COVID-19, according to a Reuters tally of county data. Total cases in the most populous U.S. state climbed above 414,000 with just a handful of California counties reporting 4,700 new cases so far on Wednesday. New York has recorded by far the most deaths of any U.S. state at over 32,000 with California in fourth place with nearly 8,000 deaths. If California were a country, it would rank fifth in the world for total COVID-19 cases behind only the United States, Brazil, India and Russia. New York currently has over 412,800 total cases and is adding on average 700 new cases a day in July. In California there is an average of 8,300 new cases a day. The rapid increase of cases has made it difficult to trace the pathogen's path through the community through contact tracing, a process of interviewing people who test positive for the virus to find out how they were exposed, and whom they in turn might have exposed, California Secretary of Health and Human Services Mark Ghaly said on Tuesday. "No one anticipated building a program to contact trace the number of cases we’re seeing here," Dr. Ghaly said at a news conference, referring to Los Angeles and other counties struggling to trace cases of the disease. The nation's top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, said on CNN Tuesday the main issue with testing is that results often do not come back for days, making it too late to do a proper job of contact tracing. Since its crush of cases earlier this year, New York state has gotten the virus under control, reporting the fewest hospitalizations in four months on Monday and only two deaths on Tuesday. About 142,000 Americans have died of COVID-19 - nearly a quarter of the global total.

Mama Noodle Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Safe to say NY had way more cases than were confirmed, easily noted by their case fatality rate. Also safe to say that the virus has already ripped through the community in NY as well, so no wonder their cases are so low now. It’s no victory. 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way it is false to state CNN is making claims, when all it is doing is accurately reporting the facts and the news. As to herd immunity, nothing so far indicates it is a possible solution or will even happen. Vaccine is the way forward and until then lets practice social distancing and wear masks.

With thanks to the total stupidity of the US government, inclusive the local, and the behaviour of the US people. With 143.000 deaths per 330 mln inhabitants, still far behind the UK with 44.000 casulaties for 67,5 million inhabitants. So, keep beachers, bars, pubs, restaurants open, social distancing of one foot is enough and facemasks... CHINESE... boycot them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
