I want some optimism from DQ. I see that the daily death numbers are falling even though states are opening more and more.

Is europe just going through what we did a month ago? The second wave type thing?
Things have been getting progressively better since about the beginning of August.

midwest cases/deaths are worse, NE about the same.
Yeah broadly speaking, things are getting better. MO/KS have been trending poorly at times, but relative to some of the other hotspots, they're not really in the conversation.

In summary: country is improving; MO/KS have been declining, but still not very bad, relatively.

Talking a little more than just KS/MO.

OK.

LSOC is looking for positive stuff/reasons for optimism. LSOC: the us in general has been gradually improving since about the beginning of August.

Good point. Sorry to rain on the positivity parade

daily cases have ticked recently. first few days of this week should let us know if that's a blip or a reversal of trend.

Yeah I don't think that's really anything too concerning, but something to keep an eye on. Test positivity % is as low as its been since the middle of june (4.7).

Nothing novel, but a fair representation about what's happening re. positives over the last week.

Discussing the volume of testing is not allowed, even when the German CDC talks about the volume of testing being a causation in the number of positive cases reported (CoronaBros)

I wasn't aware that testing had increased recently. That's good!

I'd like to see metrics on testing turnaround times. Reports of taking days to get a test result back makes the # of test being performed kind of worthless.

pretty sure the crazy delays of july/august are over with. still have some places that just take too long as a normal way of doing things, but i don't thing there are significant amounts of demand-based delays anymore.

Looking forward to a Harris-Biden administration where media scrutiny will pull back 75% and they can get back to going to war around the globe, walking guns, deporting millions, caging kids, and targeting political opponents etc etc with the majority of the media there to deflect and protect.

An administration that can put together a glossy one page marketing cut sheet and call it a pandemic plan. Then a fawning media can parrot the “plan” mindlessly to the useful idiots.

I'd definitely be in for a Trump team glossy one pager.

I just want a time where we can run weapons and recruit radicals for war. Get an Ambassador killed and just blame a YouTube video, and millions believe it.
