A big move in cases reported is illustrative, see France.  Something happened there.
A huge move, sure.

But even there, hospitalizations and ICU numbers are far more important to track.

I agree, though obviously a dramatic move in reported infections can augur an increase in hosp/deaths in a week or two.  So, it's useful information.

France apparently has seen roughly parallel increases in hospitalizations.

That is utterly nonsensical. 
Do you want to post something more positive and constructive on this thread?

Took my son trick or treating.  Number of trick or treaters was down a little but not a lot. The number of people handing out candy was down.

A couple of people tied PVC pipe to their stair banisters and slid the candy down. My wife and I actually talked about doing that but never got around to it.

Almost 27,000 tests yesterday.  Testing numbers are trending up some.

  • The U.S. reported 99,321 new Covid-19 cases on Friday, beating its previous record set only a day prior, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.
  • The top five records in daily cases have all been reported within the last eight days, according to Hopkins data.
  • Scientists warn that the U.S. is only at the beginning of the latest surge in cases and predict accelerated growth within the coming weeks.

The US is also testing far more people every day.

Florida case counts are high. Lots and lots of tests.

But, the key metrics are down. We are going to beat this thing, now that we know what it is and how we can take care of the vulnerable.

We need to keep an eye on Europe, obviously.

He has not,just like to critisize/snipe others POV with brusque bombast to appear as one in the know.One shouldn't have hope either as that is nonsensical

We might start getting vaccinations next month for key people.  Maybe, by the end of February, that starts to limit the rate of spread, I hope, or earlier.

I figure we will eventually need proof of vaccination to get on a plane or ship etc.

This is going to light up the folks who view this as a hoax perpetrated by the government and Bill Gates to get us all microchipped.  They exist.

They are loud but not numerous, I think.

One hoax I've heard is that there will be a microchip in the vaccine that will cause us to turn in our guns en masse.
