    Eventually, we will run out of states.

    The more rural and less populated states will not have a problem unless the farmers catch it from the livestock.

    Tell that to the slaughterhouse workers, but yes, social distancing is easier for farmers.

    I was joking about taking a decade. It won't hit all states as hard as the 6-10 already hit hard, and hopefully a vaccine will be found before a decade comes!

    LOL.

    I heard that just recently the vaccine has been tested in humans.

    It's not just the vaccines, but they are also finding better ways to treat patients. They have a better idea of what type of treatment works for certain types of symptoms and patients. And this continues to improve every day.

    They should be able to start treating symptoms earlier where even fewer people have to be hospitalized.

    I am surprised they didn't back off on this for a little while until Florida gets its spike under control.

    Waiting for a vaccine is a foolish strategy, as I have said before. As of right now there are two drugs that have been found to help: remdesivir and dexamethasone. Thats it. The correct strategy is to shut things down in all areas where the virus is prevalent-and possibly everywhere else-and reopen logically this time. Thats it. But I am certainly open to hearing other suggestions besides waiting for a vaccine on a white horse or useful therapies to emerge.

    Possibly NY, CT, and MA again. Its just going to cycle forever until definitive action is taken or we run out of people.

    States that got hit hard learned the lesson other states did not.

    I'm not saying it can't happen, but the people from hard hit areas, IMO, are more likely to follow safety protocols a second time around.

    For some reason the IMEH model shows Conn and NY to remain in control of this but that MA is going to have an uptick in the fall. I think that soon more definitive action will be taken in the hardest hit states as the virus will dictate the response....I hope.

    We creeped up for the 3rd straight day to 2.01 on the 7 day rolling average. That's the highest point since June 19th, except for the time a readjustment was made in late June.

    With daily cases still rising, I'm pretty sure this is more than just a blip. Deaths lag behind surging new cases and hospitalizations. New cases spiked again. It is at 66,000- 3,000 more than the record set, yesterday.

    Our 4 day total deaths is 3,692. That's the highest since June 9-12 (3,811).

    June 19th is much closer to the low than the high.
