Folks often tinge their proclamations with qualifiers like may, could, might, possible, etc.  I know I do, usually....

I also think that with the much higher knowledge about COVID-19 symptoms, and the much better test availability, we're probably catching a lot of cases sooner, before they've developed into serious complications.

In addition, a lot of tests are due to contact tracing, which will catch mild or asymptomatic cases that would never have resulted in a test before, so it looks like the severity comes down as a product of increased numbers.

That said, in many of the areas that are seeing spiking case numbers, we're starting to see the results in hospitalizations and ICU usage.
Exactly. The folks who attended the protests and the folks who crowded beaches and the folks who hung out in bars and the folks who attended massive private parties are getting tested. It's a no-brainer that we are seeing a spike, and it's not shocking to see the demographics on who is positive.

I haven't looked at too many states, but Florida's hospitals are not overwhelmed, save for a few scattered around the state.

Badge called 4 things:  No football, no NBA playoffs, no NHL playoffs, and no Baseball.

might make it 4/4.  

We now know this was Badge's fault.

I wouldnt be at all surprised to see the US death rate from all causes to fall by 10%
This never came to pass.  The opposite is still occurring.

A lot of it is probably from Coronavirus, some maybe from fear of going to the hospital, etc.

Austin Mayor Steve Adler told the Austin American-Statesman yesterday that the city's hospitals could be overwhelmed in the "next 10 days to two weeks."
  • The San Antonio Express-News reported that San Antonio's hospitals could be overrun in a week or two, with coronavirus hospitalizations rising by 55% in that area's trauma service region over the last week.
  • In the Rio Grande Valley, 10 of 12 hospitals had already reached capacity by Saturday.


COULD BE over whelmed in 10+ days, not already overwhelmed.  Probably is likely to happen.

Not good news from the Lancet, peer reviewed study.  Not good at all.

Still a confusing picture.

Pretty obvious that states and cities are in deep financial trouble.

Only the Federals can borrow, for the most part.

One state seems to stand out on this graphic as being ILL.  Has anyone else noticed this or been aware of the situation???

I hate being colorblind. I swear Aa2 and A1 are the exact same color. And might have a 25% chance differentiating Aaa from A3, which is a HUGE difference in creditworthiness.
