DC Mayor-- Children over 3 years of age who aren’t masked (and not eating or drinking) are subject to $1,000 city fine per violation. This with no actual law passed.Most city workers are, however, exempt
MLB = 10,548 samples with just SIX (0.05%) positive tests. anyone surprised? well, maybe a couple of you These pro team testing results seem more reliable than what counties are reporting
The counties are doing the official reporting. The Texas DSHS is reporting, but breaking out the data into county. The State took that work away from counties in early June. Go back and watch the 15-60 minute span of the Collin Co. Court meeting. The "2nd wave" in Texas is explained within it. It is not a natural event. It was man made wherever the new policy was implemented.
Amazing the results when everyone is tested every few days and when someone is positive they are isolated. Too bad the rest of the country isn’t important enough to get the same treatment. MLB/PA announced latest COVID-19 test results thru 7/16: 6 of 10,548 samples (0.05%) positive. The past week included a 5-day period in which no new positives were reported. Also what period of time were the 10K tests taken and for how many people?
The issue isn't importance. The issue is $. They have the money to invest in the tests for their employees. It doesn't make sense for every company or person to do that.
MLB statement on COVID-19 testing -Intake testing of 100% players and staff - Testing for asymptomatic cases every 48 hours for all players and staff - 24 hour test and trace results by private lab - Repeat screening of all positive but not all negative test results - Positive test player resultes in isolation and until negative tests Those players would have been isolated until they tested negative; if they did, they could have returned to play but would be subject to daily testing for seven consecutive days. This is a very involved process and will certainly identify positive cases within 48-72 hour cycle. Wonder what is planned for contact football?
"The MLB protocol emphasizes contact tracing and rapid testing..." "Under the MLB protocol, players are tested every other day...." If a players tests positive, first ask were all the other players were scheduled for testing anyway? If not, the only those players that had been in “close contact” with the + player would be tested immediately. Those players would have been isolated until they tested negative; if they did, they could have returned to play but would be subject to daily testing for seven consecutive days. “Close contact” does not mean playing on the same field with an infected player. “Just because you’re in the vicinity doesn’t necessarily mark you as a guy." The league advises teams to consider criteria for each teammate, in accordance with CDC recommendations: Did the infected player cough, spit, or otherwise propel secretions toward the teammate? Did the infected player touch the teammate, or share personal items? And did the infected player spend at least 15 minutes within six feet of the teammate?
The CDC on masks and influenza, from May 2020. While theoretical studies suggested masks might be effective -- "evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza" Nonpharmaceutical Measures for Pandemic Influenza in Nonhealthcare Settings—Personal Protective and Environmental Measures What are the odds the media will magically forgets about masksteria the day after the election?
A doc I work with said Trump really missed an opportunity to not only embrace masks but to steer into the curve and politicize them to his advantage by having MAGA/Trump2020 masks. How did Stephen Miller not think of this. He's a sharp but weasly bastard.
He has begun to embrace masks It will help on election day, i.e., the need for foto id so your side cant cheat as much
I have been tracking Travis and Williamson county cases since March. I couldn't get the graphs into the comment box, but they both show a clear peak. This is now after the case counting manipulation that gave us the "2nd wave." I think the event was created in health organization offices. But you can only fudge the numbers so much.
Lovely story of underage drinking and Covid spread... parents and kids are refusing to talk... More and more, the individual response we see time and time again (freedom freaks, hoarding, the story I posted) is this; "It's all about me." A coronavirus cluster in New Jersey has been traced to a high school house party, and the teens and their parents are refusing to cooperate with contact tracers, officials say
The latest, sorted by deaths per 1M pop The media is still giving Texas and Florida grief Yet they have a blind spot for NY and New Joisey, which followed NY's lead I suggest there is only one possible explanation for this
Yes, and this is specific to antibodies. T cells offer longer protection and probably found greater than 60% of kids
Same with Mueller. Apparently you have to be. A major league ******* to rise to the top at gov agencies.
The same thing is happening in New Jersey now that happened in Mass Since HHS took over the accounting, they are demanding real numbers So the real number for New Jersey is less than half what it was reporting before HHS took over for CDC
