No, it's not really encouraging news, but there are still many clinicals out.

Have you noticed that the media never talks about recoveries

The window for this virus is 14 to 21 days so currently out of 667,000 cases in the US

the current active is down to 500,000

as soon as the daily recoveries start outnumbering the daily new cases we will start to see

improvement

I think we are within 10 days of that happening

From what I have read/heard, no one is considered recovered unless they have had 2 consecutive negative Covid tests at least 24 hrs apart. And being as testing is hard to come by, it is next to impossible to be tested for it once you have passed the 14 day quarantine period. Therefore, the official number of recovered will stagger far behind the number of infections. It is just another way to pad the numbers. 

the governor in Michigan is on a power trip and she’s more concerned with going on national media and becoming a celebrity and trying to be Joe Biden’s VP nominee than she is actually solving the problems her state is facing. 

She’s done a horrible job dealing with this virus from the start, it’s exploded in Michigan and really for no apparent reason. Michigan isn’t some densely populated metropolis or some travel Mecca where people are constantly coming to like NYC/NJ. How it has just exploded in Michigan is beyond my comprehension. 

She’s gone overboard in trying to project strength and go on the media and act like a tough governor when the reality is she’s way in over her head and she went way too far with some of these restrictions. 

And don’t give me the people will bring it to their second home crap. Detroit alone has most of the states cases. And Detroit is 90% African American and 99.9% poor as shit. There is literally probably nobody in Detroit that would own a second vacation home up north. 

I have family in Michigan that voted for her and now basically hate her. She’s cooked her own goose in the next election I’m afraid. 

“The clinical support is very, very minimal,” says Maryam Keshtkar-Jahromi, an assistant professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, who co-authored an article in the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene calling for more randomized controlled trials of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine. The drugs do “not show strong evidence at this point,” she adds.

A few preclinical studies have suggested these compounds could be effective at blocking infection with the novel coronavirus (officially called SARS-CoV-2), but there has been very little good evidence from clinical trials in patients with the illness it causes, COVID-19.

Didn’t read the article yet but I will. Thanks for the link. 

Apparently it has to be taken with zinc for it to be effective.  

I think this is already happening,but since it wasn't in Hospitals or treatment wasn't sought it's not a stat.I've had quite a few folks say they think they have already had it

Youre probably right but I can only analyze the data presented

Here is a virus case map for Michigan which shows the Detroit area as being the vast majority of cases

That’s just showing the counties, not the cities. From what I understand, vast majority of cases are in the city of Detroit. Which is poor as shit. 

Most people in Michigan don’t live in Detroit. They live in the suburbs 30 mins to an hr outside in every direction.
