I plan on not getting it but getting the vaccine instead. Of course
technically that is “getting it”.

To be clear, I was saying there was a conspiracy. Although I will say if you
want more of something, you subsidize it, and less of something, you tax it.
All I was saying is I saw no reason for an entity, public or private, to
falsify 3 out of 3 tests unless there was some financial incentive for doing
so. Although anecdotal, that's a hell of a coincidence.
Again, economic policy can drive mass decision making, which to some, can seem
like a conspiracy, but in actuality is just macroeconomic decisions working
down to the micro level. The same reason people buy shit at Wal-Mart for $2
less than somewhere else.
Anyway, I just thought it added color to the numbers and is the only actual
verifiable inconsistency I have seen.
In my opinion, everyone on the planet, save those cannibals on that little
island of NZ, are going to get COVID so while slowing it might be a good idea,
it lengthens the time we stay in this rut and doesn't prevent the inevitable.

I thought the only time Government was competent was when it was involving
conspiracy?
IRS looses 1 laptop and millions of peoples data is in the wild, "Gov't leaks
data like a sieve"
1000's of people in and out of Area51, and not a single picture of the
aliens? "Gov't has been covering it up for 60 years"

Conspiracy theories lose credibility when the number of participants exceed
5 or 10 people. You're talking about a conspiracy involving 5 or 6 thousand
hospitals in 50 states (plus all the territories), with who knows how many
people involved at each hospital.

My governor publishes a report every day. The number in my county keeps
going up, never down. So the same guy who got it early and died, does he
still count? How about the ones who got it and 'recovered' ? What about the
people who tested only for the antibody? I guess they count as 'got it', too.
Anything goes, no honesty or transparency required. And the more dead
people, the better.

I see young kids in places like stores wearing masks and they seem
quite OK with it, like having a backpack or a hat, this is what we do, no big
deal go ahead and play or shop or whatever we are here for. I am reminded of
my observation that people who need glasses from a young age tolerate it a lot
better than those of us who don’t need glasses until we turn 50.
On the other hand, there are some photos circulating of high school
reopening in states like Georgia that are quite frightening, I hope this is
just social media taking things out of context. I understand at that age the
peer pressure to not be uncool, but if this is really going on all over the
place, we have an experiment going on and may not like the results. Maybe we
will discover that teenagers don’t transmit the virus, but so far, magical
thinking hasn’t worked out so good.

I say treat it like triage. Healthcare workers first, then essential
workers, then people in assisted care and prisons.

maybe they don’t have that many years after all. If the virus doesn’t get
them, some other stupid stunt will. Plus they will have enjoyed their short
lives, with all the partying.
Grumble, grumble.

Illinois 7 day positive results average went from 4% positive to 3.9%
positive yesterday. So I guess that's good news. But reports are a majority
of new cases are from college age kids coming back to campuses and partying.

When I was seeing my Primary doc for a physical, he said that he
feels the only numbers worth looking at are % of positive tests, and
Deaths/infections. The total numbers don't mean anything.
Here in Illinois, we're sitting at ~4% positive for the last week,
but 4.6% positive yesterday, we were at 2.8% positive a month ago. I think
some of the 'bad' states are upwards of 10% positive.
