    Like the anti-gun assholes who keep using "total death numbers " (not to mention including suicides) it's the rate of an event that is most telling, not the total numbers. Obviously the US, with 328M citizens, is going to have more total suicides than Canada, 38M citizens. As most science-oriented people know, it's the rate that is more important:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...y_suicide_rate
    Suicide Rate
    US 13.7
    Canada 10.4


    Understanding those figures is a much more logical starting point than total numbers between countries where one is ten times the size of the other. Therefore, claiming that the reason the US ratio of those sick has gone up or down because of more testing is blindly stupid. It's Trumpian logic....meaning no logic at all, no basis in science at all.

    This lesson in statistics is free.

    That will probably change in two to four weeks. Worse if the hospitals max out on beds/ventilators. Treatment in the US is obviously better than in Third World shitholes, but not as good as in other First World Nations due to medical access. When even the middle-class can't get a bed, the bodies will start piling up again.

    interesting......Trump gives what was arguably the best political speech in the last 12 years and all you can come up with is he mispronounced someone's name?.......pretty sad how low the demmycunts have fallen......

    No worries, son. I think most people guessed you'd pass. That's just the way you are.

    It was Trump's best speech, despite the dog whistle's and mispronunciations, but it's not the best political speech in 12 years.

    What Christian church do you affiliate? I'm curious.

    There was a slight peak in Active Cases on May 30th. The number began to fall a little bit after that, but then we opened up without waiting for the number to fall very much.

    The fall in New Cases vanished and the numbers have been rising drastically ever since.

    We are still looking for the first significant peak.

    Here is a graph of Active Cases in the USA:

    The number of daily New Cases tells the story.

    The beginning of this graph shows when we finally began to get testing in place, and the numbers ramped up rapidly at first.

    Then the New Cases reached a peak and began to drop down as the nation put economic shut down measures into place. The graph clearly shows how we smoothed the curve of new cases. The middle of the curve shows the number of New Cases began to fall, even as we were still increasing testing.

    Then, after May 30th, we ceased the shut down measures. The results could hardly be clearer. That is near the right side of the graph where the numbers shoot up drastically.
