???  Insinuations aside, this topic is open to the public and it only seems logical that there would be some that are unconvinced and overconfident. Even among our members there may be some that are over confident.

That may not have been what he was insinuating.  We shouldn't automatically conclude our members here, our brothers and sisters, have ulterior motives.

Here's another one.  This guy lived about 2 hours from me.

This guy posted on Facebook in April that he was not going to wear any mask because he was not buying into the hype.  He died July 4.

From the NY Times:
More than 15,000 new cases of the coronavirus were announced on Sunday in Florida, marking the highest single-day total of known cases in any state since the start of the pandemic.

Florida’s surge soared past the previous record, set in New York, of more than 12,000 cases in a day. That occurred in April, during the worst of the outbreak there, when testing was scarce. And Florida is reporting far fewer deaths than New York.

So someone in my household has symptoms now... it may just be a cold, or a typical virus, but we have to be checked. Ordered a home test kit to do it ourselves.

 

Fortunatly @Lee49 it's nothing like what you posted before 😄

Couldn’t do it.

This was just on Aljazeera News July 2020

 

WHO reports record daily increase in coronavirus cases: Live

US, Brazil, India and South Africa register biggest rises in COVID-19 cases, according to the UN health agency.

 

(Why is Virus a mystery?  It's it a pestilence that man brought upon all mankind?  No mystery to me, thats my question in here, man's doing not God's).

Well, the numbers alone are somewhat misleading (not that you're doing the misleading because you're just sharing the information).

 

Yes, Florida confirmed 15k new Covid cases, but that's in part because they tested 142k people in one day, and their positivity rate dropped from 18 percent 2 weeks ago, down to 11 percent as of today.

Florida is making slow PROGRESS believe it or not.

Today too, making a bad decision would be the result of trusting in false or fake news.

This is another of those posts where I want to reply with a 🌹 a ♥️ a 🏆 a 😍 (ok that one isn't an option but it should). Yes. Satan plays things so both sides tell lies, but they also sometimes tell truths. We have to focus, not on that side told a lie while that side told a truth but on that we're loyal to Jehovah and staying neutral. End of the day, its Satan's system, everyone in it is going to make mistakes and maybe even lie but we still have to show respect to the Secular Authorites while listening to the FDS straight counsel.

Yeah my mom has the symptoms, she's quite ill with it, and it's worse because she had an couple of operations about five months ago (which she's still recovering from). But now I'm also beginning to get the symptoms of a dry cough and a lump in my throat that makes you feel like your throat is closing up (which is what my mom is also getting).

I hope your mum is OK Matthew and also that you don't get too sick 🙏

Oh, boy, sorry to hear that Matthew. I hope you have some people who can help you out with food etc, that does sound like you'll be quarantining for the next couple of weeks.

Oh we've been provided for, we've been quarantined for months. Family brings up what we need as I don't get out the house and my mom has been unable to since her hysterectomy.

Just in case I croak with this virus, embalm my body with chocolate and bury  me at the site of Hershey Chocolate Factory. This will prepare me for the New World.

Sorry Dusty, chocolate has pagan origins and wont be allowed in the New World...

 

Uhhh....medic? Does anyone know CPR? I think we just lost Dusty...  :lol1:

Australia seems to have a way more organized government approach than here in the states. No one wants to lock down anything over here.

Being a nation built on convicts, it comes natural to lock people up LOL :lol1::help:

Yep, that's the point I wanted to make.

It's nice to see on the chart, that the percentage on 11 July was the lowest ratio. But the sheer bulk tested resulted in a huge number.

Sadly, there is still a lot of cases out there...

The experience of Melbourne shows it doesn't take long to spread if you let your guard down.

GB Update #4 was better than perfect timing!

Poor Florida...

NY Times Published July 12, 2020
Updated July 13, 2020, 1:02 a.m. ET

TAMPA, Fla. — Florida on Sunday reported the highest single-day total of new coronavirus cases by any state since the start of the pandemic, with more than 15,000 new infections, eclipsing the previous high of 12,274 recorded in New York on April 4 amid the worst of its outbreak.
The number reflects both increased testing and a surge in transmission of the virus that has strained hospitals, led to shortages in a key antiviral drug and amplified fears about the pace the state lifted restrictions on movement and commerce. And it is a new red mark on the nation’s floundering efforts to combat the virus.
