Yes again. The CDC is saying 10X more people were infected, and the virus spread rapidly. The positive case percentage is going down, the virus spread is dying down. Downward slope is a trend, and the trend is less as time goes forward. So 3 ideas at the same time, more than expected positive, that number is trending down, not as many in the hospitals. Even worse, now younger people that were thought to not have it, actually have it with no issues. Wow how terrible. Hard to separate concept of infected and ill.
So what does that mean?
Infected is Ok if you are not ill. Bonus, that leads to herd immunity to protect the compromised.
It means social distancing did not work.
It means the virus was 10X less impactful than stated.
It means it can not be stopped, and right now that is acceptable.
That also means the failed preventative measures probably caused more harm than good.
That means looking at individual state numbers tells nothing, cherry picking data to be a chicken little benefits no one.
