at's not really why Rt went back over 1. There were 2 days where the new cases were over 1.500 one day and then over 1,200 the next. ADPH actually put out a press release explaining the bump. There was a lab that had been testing since the end of July but didn't send results in until August 29th - so you got the regular totals plus an entire month's worth of positives from that lab in 2 days time. The days before and after that dump haven't been outside the norm for the last few weeks.
The college outbreaks are probably keeping the overall numbers from being a lot lower, but as of now it doesn't look like they're driving a statewide spike
I didn’t know that. Thanks for letting me know

CDC says we will have a vaccine by the end of next month. Dems freaking out.

I don't know if it's a reporting glitch (hasn't been one mentioned) but the new case totals for the last 2 days were 86 on Tuesday and 381 yesterday. Hospitalizations have also dropped to roughly half of what they were a month ago.

It probably wont happen until mid November. Although it sounds like it could happen in mid October.

Would you be in line to take a vaccine rushed through like this?
I know I wouldn't...
Phase three is suppose to take longer than a couple short months and both vaccines haven't even gotten administered the second time (4-week space betwen first and second dosage) talk much show they actually work.
Wish people wouldn't politicize things like this.

Me either. But... once it's politicized, it can't be unpoliticized.

BamaTracker reporting 11,792 cases added in Alabama yesterday. That’s an alarming number. Looks like close to 3,000 come from Tuscaloosa County and Lee County, which most likely means from the uninversities.

You might have caught them in the middle of a bad fat finger or something.
I'm looking right now. They show 688 new cases and ADPH shows 744. Heck, that 11,700 number is 3 times the number of tests reported yesterday by both sources.

Yeah obviously there was some sort of error at the time I looked.

Who cares about the dems but I will not be a test dummy either for something being rushed out like that. We do not need a repeat of the flu vaccine from the 70s that was rushed out.

WTF???? Surely people can't be buying into that load of BS. How do you connect those dots?

Welcome to the 2020 information war. This shite has seeped into everything.

That is a truly stupid tweet.

There's a link embedded in the tweet that goes to some remarks the U.N. Secretary General (Antonio Guterres) made at some town hall thing regarding the impact of COVID on women. Basically points out how a lot of PPE is designed to fit a man of average size but most healthcare workers are women, most women worldwide are not "formally" employed and that has obviously caused a lot of economic struggles, women have borne the burden of caring for dependents even more than usual, domestic violence has skyrocketed, etc. The tweet is stupid because it kind of conveys the message that men are responsible for COVID, but the actual comments it came from aren't unreasonable.

Well, no.
For starters there is no such thing as a man of average size. The average American man is 5-9, 197. The average Japanese man is 5-6, 137. The average Mexican man is 5-4, 165.
Second, PPE comes in different sizes had zero problems getting tyvex suits to fit the different sizes of the different people on our department.
His comment, like virtually everything coming out of the UN is politically motivated bullshite.
