Sweden isn't looking as rosey as dax wants us to believe? We know data is hard for him.

Do those numbers to the left of each graph represent the total tally of new cases for each day/rolling 7-day average?

That’s cherry picking data if I’ve ever seen it

It’s disgusting that it’s legal to farm or buy mink products in first world countries

What is the moral difference between mink farming and cow farming?

the fact that cows lead to food seems to be a big one.

But there's a lot morally wrong with cow farming too!

kim carnes · « **Reply #10642 on:** October 13, 2020, 12:56:02 PM »

Is that a serious question? You think we need to raise and kill animals to make clothing products for classless idiots? Are you a barbarian?

Pretty good reason.

I used to not like it but the NY Times dashboard is pretty handy now that everything is per capita.

Mormons and cheeseheads getting hit hard

I think the rural kansas red is a tad misleading because one or two cases makes for a pretty high per capita case rate

Netherlands: Record day of new cases yesterday

Russia and Hungary: Highest mortality day recorded

China: (where the virus had been eradicated per the CCP) institutes massive city wide testing campaign in Qindao. Another outbreak because of outside visitors . . . that happens a lot in China

Italy: Imposes more restrictions

Phil Titola · « **Reply #10648 on:** October 13, 2020, 05:00:56 PM »

United States . Cases going up again as well as hospitalizations. Not s good sign headed into winter. No additional restrictions planned.
