At least 174,455 new cases were reported between August 19 and August 25, up from 169,217 the week before (+3%) and the highest since March 3. Those figures were collected from state health departments and, where necessary, estimated based on hospital admissions.
Actual case numbers are higher because many hospitals and states are no longer reporting detailed COVID data. Laboratory testing is also low as most people and doctors are using at-home tests which are not included in official statistics.
1,075 new COVID deaths were reported during the week, the second week in a row with more than 1,000 new deaths. It’s also the seventh week in a row with more than 500 new deaths and the 232nd week with more than 400 new deaths.
So far this year, nearly 4.8 million COVID cases have been reported across the U.S., causing at least 340,153 hospitalizations (limited data) and 37,301 deaths, according to BNO’s COVID data tracker.
We couldn’t even normalize mask use while sick.
The world’s laziest malthusians.
How can I trust you with being sincere on that if you refuse to protect existing people? If you keep pestering women that they MUST reproduce then it opens the door to mandating that YOU give up some of your mountains of gold to pass universal healthcare at least. We have the highest infant mortality rate in the first world.
Who am I kidding? The ultimate freedom is no laws for the lions and many laws for the oxen apparently.
