Me too, Tony. In addition, I use hand sanitizer after leaving a store...

Some people keep emphasizing what we don’t know.
Here is what we know: COVID-19 spreads easily and is devastating and deadly. It isn’t the flu. Cases are on the rise. Deaths have begun to tick upward again. Social distancing, masks, and good hygiene reduce its spread. This is not a YMMV post. Those things are all verifiable facts. Scientists are still working on a lot of more specific details, but they are absolutely clear and in consensus about the above facts. After that comes all the speculation, armchair quarterbacking, homebrewed theories, ideology, etc..,, I’m afraid a lot of people really can’t see the forest for the trees. Your friend, The broken record |

This is why I said "so I prefer to err on the side of conservative and wear a mask when I go outside my home and honor social distancing". Just in case I can't see the forest for the trees, I don't want to be a part of the problem for others. The things I said that I am doing are not so much for me, but for others that if I am a carrier, I am not infecting them. Tony

It seems difficult to argue with what's going on and the need to take precautionary steps; but members of The Flat Earth Society https://www.tfes.org believe the world is flat...
The United States saw another record day for new coronavirus cases, surpassing 70,000 for the first time, according to an NBC News tally Friday. The record high follows multiple case peaks since June, including 45,557 single-day diagnoses reported June 24, a 45,942 one-day increase June 27 and more than 46,500 new cases recorded Tuesday. Sunbelt states experiencing surges including California, Florida, Texas and Georgia contributed to the record tally. California reported 7,798 new cases Friday.

I have no intention of joining the arguments here, but am just asking because I don't know. In other words, I am not asking rhetorical questions to indirectly pose an argument. Thanks, Tony

OK. So that would be the "umbrella" statistic covering anybody identified to be carrying the COVID-19 virus. The rest of the numbers would be breakdowns within that "umbrella" statistic. Anyway, that is then my understanding based on what you are saying. Please correct me if that is not the case.
Tony

I am referring to the sites that post the numbers of new COVID-19 cases, number of deaths, number of those in intensive care. I am sure you must have seen those by now. They are often divided up by country and by state in the US.
If not, here are some of these sites: https://covid2019stats.net/ https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/1712761/ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Locally for my state: https://mn.gov/covid19/ There are quite a number of these, so the above are just a sample. Folks in this ongoing thread are likewise throwing around all manner of statistics. Tony
