US infectious disease chief Dr Anthony Fauci says the nation has a "serious problem" as 16 states reel from a spike in Covid-19 cases. At the first White House task force briefing in two months, Dr Fauci said: "The only way we're going to end it is by ending it together."
World
The serious problem is enormous. Yesterday, almost another 200,000 new cases of Covid-19 were recorded bringing the grand total to just short of 10 million cases and a half a million people dead globally.
US
The US yesterday recorded its third-day running of new cases with more than 45,000 new cases, beating the old record recorded the day before when 40,000 new cases were revealed. Total deaths in the US from the virus is at 125,000 thousand from nearly 2,467,837 cases, more than any other country. In Texas, Florida and Arizona, reopening plans have been paused due to a surge in cases. Health officials in the US estimate the true number of cases is likely to be 10 times higher than the reported figure.
Around the world
Brazil's unrelenting surge continues with 47,000 new cases reported there yesterday bringing the total number of cases to 1,274,974 with 56,000 of them dying. India had its record number of cases yesterday topping almost 20,000. In Europe, France had a spike yesterday just days after an easing of lockdowns. Turkey appears to be heading for a second wave too after the virus appeared to be dwindling there in early June.
Good News just around the corner?
With the official global death rate now at 500,000, many experts believe that the real number of deaths could be anything from 150,000 to 200,000 higher than the official number. However yesterday, the BBC claimed although there is a worldwide surge in new cases, the number of people dying from the disease is actually dropping, for instance, deaths in the UK from the virus is down to 1.5% suggesting Covid-19 is losing it virality.
Was COVID-19 in Europe a year ago already?
SARS-CoV-2 detected in wastewater collected in Barcelona on March 12, 2019
Researchers at the University of Barcelona have detected the presence of the Covid-19 virus in samples of Barcelona's sewage, collected as far back as March 12, 2019, almost a year before the virus broke out in Europe. These results, which were sent to a high-impact journal and published in the medRxiv repository, would indicate that the infection was present long before any case of COVID-19 was recorded in the world.

Dear readers,
ReplyDeleteCan we believe the media ???? I personally don't believe anything they tell me. If they tell me it's snowing outside, I go and look. Here's the reason I have a problem believing them. My grandson plays hockey in Toronto, Canada. I can go to the arena, take my grandson to the dressing room , get him dressed to play hockey, we are in the dressing room with twelve other kids and yet as soon as I leave the dressing room, I cannot watch my grandson play hockey but, I have to go outside and wait till the game is over then I can go back to the dressing room, undress him and then leave the arena. If the coronavirus is so deadly, why the hell am I allowed in the dressing room. Folks it's all about " CONTROL " If people can't see that, then you're two fries short of a happy meal.
I'm sorry Bob, but I've gotta say something. So many complaining people who make such lame arguments online.
ReplyDelete1. You mention 12 kids and you. Maybe a few others. Compare that to a stadium of how-many-people? For what length of time?
Do the math.
2. Who gets blamed if the hospitals are overwhelmed, systems break down, and health workers get infected, further reducing hospitals' ability to handle the influx without making things even worse? Answer: Not you. The very people you will blame for a huge outbreak like this: Those in CONTROL. THEY are responsible, not the complaining people on the web. You may hate those in control, but somebody has to do it, and you can choose to elect people who can have an effect on who is in control. Unless you wanna live in Africa, modern nations must have control. At least it can be democratic control, instead of dictatorial control. Grown-ups realize the ups and downs of this and accept it.
3. "If you don't agree with me, then you have brain problems." This type of statement sure sign of some poor unfortunate, closed minded, illusion-building human.
4. Blame. Blame created hell. Blame is the #1 problem in the world. We think that by blaming others God will take His accusing eye off of us. Wrong thinking. God has no accusing eye. The devil does, and if you are blaming everthing and everyone out there, you are dancing with the devil.
Bob... AMEN!!! ppl need to wake up.. things don't add up or make sense!! Things are contradicting themselves
ReplyDeleteTry saying that in Florida right now, or Brazil, or India, try saying that to a poor wife, who just lost her husband and has no way of earning a living. You really need to wake up.
ReplyDeleteTry reporting the recoveries!!! They are millions and the highest numbers of all of this nonsense! Say it in FL Bob! Say it loud! I am!! Its all BS. "The virus that causes covid". That was word for word in news yesterday.
ReplyDeleteA virus is, a cell that has been poisoned and is releasing those toxins from itself in order to heal!, which causes illness and or disease depending on what cellular part of the body it is in.
According to Webster's dictionary from 1980: definition of virus is: [L; poison. A slimy liquid, stench] 1: any of a large group of sub microscopic infectious agents that have an outside coat of protein around a core of RNA and DNA, that can grow and multiply ONLY in LIVING CELLS, and that causes important diseases in human beings, lower animals and plants: also a disease caused by a virus. 2: something (as a corrupting influence) that poisons the mind or spirit.
If that isn't as telling as it gets then nothing else will ever be!
Fast forward to 2006 dictionary, definition of virus is completely changed. You have to go back to 1980 or before to find the truth. Do it! Throw away your ugly masks and breath. This is all a scam.
A sick cell inside our bodies causes a disease or illness that process is named virus. Can not live on surfaces, or any place outside the body, only lives in a living cell! So you get the flu, or some other illness from that sick cell. That's how the body rids toxins. Then you get better. But if you have cellular damage (cancer or some other cellular damage disease) the next step after cellular illness, then you are more likely to be unable to recover because the cell is damaged and this world treats damaged cells with poisons like chemo so the damaged cells and the well cells all die. That's what treatment is in a world full of masked lunatics.
Hope that's ok to voice my findings and beliefs without getting yelled at or told to leave. Thank you and God bless.

The human led utopian world is crumbling. All humans are sinners and morally flawed in every way. Read John 3:3, John 3:16, Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life. Amen.
