Coronavirus...post your thoughts here...

Something that has puzzled me for along time, take a look at this map Covid-19 by State.
In the following places show Active, Recovered, and Fatal.
Texas
Active 186,293
Recovered 820,073
Fatal 19,298

Nuevo Leon Mexico
Active 7,839
Recovered 20,110
Fatal 2,362

Quebec CAndada
Active 10,794
Recovered 98,740
Fatal 6,455

New York
Active 503,590
Recovered --
Fatal 33,343

Why does everyplace in Mexico reports recovered, the same in Canada and but not in the USA. States like Texas, Olkahoma does show recovered, but places Like New York and California do not show any recovered. This has puzzled me for good while now.

China reports 22 new COVID-19 cases versus 33 a day earlier

China reported 22 new COVID-19 cases as of Nov. 9, down from 33 cases a day earlier, its health authority said on Tuesday.

How does China have such few cases for a nation that big??

They have lock downs and they are wearing masks in public.

Because New York’s Governor is nuts!

Because New York’s Governor is nuts!

I thought Cuomos approach was smart compared to Trumps?

 

[Deanasue]

He blamed everything on someone else. “We don’t have enough PPE”. Well, duh, you have to order it! It doesn’t fall from the sky!

When Cuomo said that there actually wasn't enough PPE to even order. Essentially every country in the world trying to get it's hands on as much PPE as possible. The US was caught flat-footed in terms of preparedness and the federal government did an abominable job recovering.

First this is my last post along this line of thought. I will not respond, because this can get out of hand here and this is not the place for that. So at my own risk I just wanted to clarify what really went on here. The virus is serious, people are dying, so I am not trying to downplay it.

In my previous post I was showing a map where California and New York never showed recoveries. Nobody pointed out the true reasons for this. The true reason is that this is an election year for the President of the United States of America, by not showing the recoveries was a political ploy to make the virus look as bad as it could be made to look. Check the map again, and you will see not one area controlled by Democrats shows recoveries. But that will soon change.

When a crisis hits or anything bad happens here in America the man in charge gets all the blame by those who don't like that person. The President gets blamed for things that happen that are not in his control, this virus was a god send for those who wanted change in the White House.

It was the virus and peoples fear of it, that brought about the change in Washington.

I'm sorry, but part of this is simply not correct. Even if you don't respond, people reading this ought to have this clarified. Using the map you showed...

11 of 25 red states (Alaska, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, and West Virginia) show recovered cases.

8 of 25 blue states (Hawaii, New Mexico, DC, Maryland, Delaware, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine) show recovered cases.

I don't know about you, but I don't really see a strong partisan pattern here. Less than half of both red and blue states show recovered cases, and only 3 more red states show recovered cases than blue states.

 

[Fishmanic]

there are other more reliable sites which do show recovered cases and lots more.
The one I use is here:

United States Coronavirus: 17,143,942 Cases and 311,073 Deaths - Worldometer

United States Coronavirus update with statistics and graphs: total and new cases, deaths per day, mortality and recovery rates, current active cases, recoveries, trends and timeline.

I do find it funny that just because someone doesn't agree with you, you have to put them on ignore. That's like a child covering their ears and going "naa naa na na naaa". It's their opinion and they're entitled to it. Just as you are entitled to yours. If I put everyone who disagreed with my Covid posts on ignore, I'd be ignoring pretty much everyone. But I read and respect your opinions.
So here are my thoughts.
1, Before you go hammering forward to get your Covid jab, do yourself a favour and google "Pfizer lawsuits" then come back to me. If you want a vaccine from those lot you need your head testing.
2, Actually don't come back to me. I'll find a forum where your opinions are discussed with adults and not just ignored by children.
Seeya.

COVID-19: Boris Johnson self-isolating after meeting with MP who tested positive for coronavirus

MP Lee Anderson developed COVID-19 symptoms after meeting the prime minister and has now tested positive.

news.sky.com

If boris gets a test done then presumably he would not need to self isolate that long? Or does it take time to get anti bodies that show you have it?

 

[Colin_T]

Once you have had the virus and overcome it, you have anti-bodies for it.

Theoretically, this will be a good test to see if anti-bodies last in his body. If he has no covid19 and has anti-bodies for it, then it means that his body (and presumably most other people) will be immune after getting it.

Italy was the first covid “outbreak” in Europe.
Italian National Cancer Institute have been testing samples taken pre covid. They’ve just announced C19 was circulating undetected and unheard of in Italy in Sept 2019. IE before the Wuhan outbreak was announced.

The EU ordered the biggest amount of ppe equipment in world history pretty quickly for distribution to its member states. All accepted with one exception.
The U.K. govt refused as being elected on basically a single ticket they couldn’t. That ticket being anti EU (brexit) meaning they couldn’t be seen to accept EU help in keeping their citizens safe. “We’ll make our own arrangements” iirc was the official reply.
That meant hospital staff wearing bin liners and clothing industry production lines turned over to mask production. Masks never became compulsory in public areas such as shops and public transport for a long time because there simply wasn’t enough to go around.
How many lives lost because of political dogma and face saving we will never know but I’ll hazard a guess that at least one person would be alive now if the EUs offer had been accepted.
History won’t remember those at the top of a number of countries well.

The problem is that as this is a new and strange virus, the medical field still doesn't know how long antibodies protect you from catching C19 twice.


''Antibodies are a key part of our immune defences and stop the virus from getting inside the body's cells.
The Imperial College London team found the number of people testing positive for antibodies has fallen by 26% between June and September.
They say immunity appears to be fading and there is a risk of catching the virus multiple times.’'
