You guys gotta take the "less bad" news with good. Yeah Florida reported a new single-day case record. But the US as a whole was still down from the day before (and more than 10k, or about 15%, less than the peak).

See I can statistic too!

Why are people wanting children and parents to get infected? That’s the only reason I can think of for why the false signs are being placed.

HERD!
IMMUNITY!

I would say the good old "never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by ignorance" line in that they actually believe the "herd immunity" crap or whatever(the human immune system does not build immunity against China's Virus) but i know that there will always be those that are willfully malicious. Some just because they want to watch the world burn, they get morbid satisfaction from watching others suffer. Some have ulterior motives, to propagate tragedy for their own gain.

the human immune system does not build immunity against China's Virus

Of course it does, else everybody would have the virus forever, and every symptomatic carrier would die from it, which clearly does not happen.

The question is how long the immunity lasts.

"Is it Monday, again? High time I visit the Covid Social Club again, where we play games like 'Inhale From My Neighbour's Balloon' and 'Pepper Or Snuff?'... The last time I missed a week I felt awful by the Friday and if it wasn't for the Weekend Effect I'd have been in trouble..."

We're almost at the point I can only hope that the US remains the worst outbreak in the world, because if it ever isn't then some other country will be getting absolutely devastated. But the outbreak has proven it's ability to move quickly and is still rapidly shifting, what with India surpassing Italy recently. (Actually, Florida surpassed Italy recently, which is a bad sign.) Still, Latin American+Caribbean has reported - as of Tuesday - more coronavirus deaths (146,515) than the US and Canada combined (144,451). While US deaths have seen an uptick recently, they're still significantly behind the death toll from Latin America, led of course by Brazil but Peru and Chile make up significant portions of that as well. Mexico isn't far behind and Columbia is also on the map (note those are totals and not per-capita, which of course skews the numbers).

Meanwhile in New York I think we're all quite grateful that this is over, at least for now, and hopeful it doesn't return for some time. Hope the state-mandated quarantine orders for travelers from other states helps.

Hey, remember the discussions earlier on in the pandemic about how it would be the absolute worst case scenario if it turned out covid had a short immunity frame?

...

Well,-

Uh...

Weekly COVID booster shots in the future
THINK OF THE PROFIT!

Hmm. Time to develop a gene therapy to make the body continue to produce antibodies.

Hmm. Time to develop a gene therapy to make the body continue to produce antibodies.

..without the chance of messing up and initiating some form or other of chronic leukæmia?
