Florida leads the country in testing. Texas, New York, and California have all tested more people.

The relevant number here is not total tests, but rather, the number of current daily tests being done. The strong Dem states are probably (just a guess) drawing down on daily testing, while pushing daily testing in the red states with big electoral college votes, that the Dems are desperate to turn blue. It's all a political game, and the Dems/left are setting the rules.

I don't have the numbers handy, and not being argumentative, but I'd bet that daily testing in FL has really ramped up recently. The Dems are doing their best to make Republican leadership look inept. They likely trying to counter the Dem leadership sh*t-show of the last few months, that has been on full display in major cities across the country.

I'd bet that daily testing in FL has really ramped up recently. It has. Florida has has roughly 55k tests per day since late June. That is about the same as Texas, maybe a 5k or so higher. California has had around 100k tests per day in the same period and ramped up to 120kish in the last week or so. Obviously more tests mean more total positives, but the rate of positives is useful too. California is steadily around 10% but Florida is 20%. So is Texas. Arizona is nearly 30%. It would be nice to know how many of the resolved cases have gotten reinfected. It wouldn’t change the hype around this but it might help the level headed make a strategy for managing it. That there hasn’t been much mention of this on the news makes me think the post-infection immunity is pretty good. If people were being reinfected they’d have that on the front page of every web site in the country.

Number of tests being conducted daily versus per capita. They might lead that one, at least in the past 10 days or so. Texas would be the only other state close.

The way I see it, there's no controlling the spread. That Genie is waaay out of the bottle.
The bad news is, if you are in poor health, it might take you down.
The good news is, it's not nearly as lethal as the hype might suggest.
At this point, I just see it as information/misinformation/disinformation being used as a political dirty trick.
Create fear. Scared people are easily led.

Stick, that came from a cryptic news blip on Bloomberg. True? What was it that Pontius Pilot asked ? Apparently all of these “shattering “ headlines are being extrapolated forward by trends. Louisiana has been recently mandated to wearing mask to enter any business establishments.

True? Just looking at the Johns Hopkins graphs it probably is true. 22MM people have the misfortune of living in Florida and their tests per day is about the same as Texas with 29MM. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/testing/individual-states/floridaNot sure which state has more ethnic Hispanics...probably Texas...they seem to be more vulnerable.

Rush just had some info on several testing sites in Florida turning in fraudulent positive cases. One place had 100% and another 98% positive. He did not say how many Tests were done only the clinics acknowledged the errors. Was supposed to be 9.4 percent but submitted 98 % positive. The numbers are being manipulated. It’s impossible to have 100% positives. The monetary incentive from the feds needs to go away. The rona will follow shortly after that.

Link to CDC data tracker mapHover over the blue and red states and look at the deaths per 100k. That is all that matters, the rest is BS.

Mayo Clinic in Jax Beach is going to lemme slide this summer on transplant re evaluation testing.
Said they got too much covid chit, the hard cases at the campus.
What a break for me. Save me about $1000 worth traveling and co-pays. That should be enough for you to get one of them expensive canners for Nana's beans!

Florida is real hot-- That's why it is called the Novel Virus. It has not been around enough to fully understand what it does and does not do.
