Crap.
 
meh .... so ?
I can't do a damned thing about it and I'm tired of hearing the fatalistic fear mongering..
y'all try to have a happy day.
 
That's more Americans who died than who died in the Iraq war.
 
Total fearmonger BS!

AZ has been trending down for a month and a half. AZ has gone from 21% positive average per week to the current 5%. AZ has one of the lowes Rt's in the nation. Hospital statistics are the lowest they've been throughout the pandemic. Businesses are being allowed to open up because we have reached proper benchmarks. We've gone from averaging 3800 cases a day to less than 600. This number is dropping quickly. Many of the daily reported deaths you see are from June and July.

ADHS - Data Dashboard

Some pretty steep downward trends.

Take a look at the heat map below. Does it look like AZ is a hot spot.

Wait I thought the pandemic was over and we won. That is what I heard at the RNC.

That's tragic, but still less than a third of what New Jersey had, and less than a sixth of what NY had.
 
So, we've hit a point where the news that 5,000 are dead in a single state from a virus is considered fearmongering and unimportant?

Great.
 
The failures of the federal non-response are going to reverberate for a long time. And sadly the death toll will continue to steadily increase.

So reaching 5000 deaths is good news?

Fearmongering it is,
and truly important Only to those who lost loved ones.
 
have you given thought to seeing a audiologist?
some give hearing tests for free.

So all those 1000's of people at Trump's Whitehouse RNC finale speech were wearing invisible masks and half of them were manikins so they were really social distancing? Good to know. It looked to me like they were acting like the pandemic was over.

Failure of State elected officials to respond should reflect in their respective coming elections.
The Feds have done as is Constitutionally set forth.

It probably is to you. I bet you can't wait to check the death numbers each day. It's gotta be good for Biden right?

I look at what is going on right now in this moment. AZ was the national hot spot for a while and now we have turned it around. Liberals just look at numbers and freak out. Learn to take a deeper look and don't be such a little CNN parrot!

Trump will have more than 200,000 dead on his resume by election day. Time to boot his worthless ass.

Good news? no, unless one attempts to use it for political gain.
Bad news for their loved ones.
for the remainder of us....
unless addicted to adrenaline rush of fear
It just Is.

If that's your viewpoint, so be it.... but it is a view and not what you heard anyone say.

Not his resume....
maybe the 'experts' who were calling the shots
from the CDC.

So it's a do as I say not as I do sort of thing? Or is it that "what you see and hear is not what's happening."

No, I think the fearmongering (I would actually go for it being a political jab, but what do I know?) is pointing out the number of deaths and claiming that AZ is a hotspot, without also pointing out useful information like the fact that the daily new case rate has dropped dramatically.

Time for a president with the stones to call the shots, apparently. Time to boot Trump’s worthless ass.
 
What's the big deal? Everyone dies eventually. Dying is good actually..

Some probably think it good..
everyone wants to go to heaven
they just don't wanna' do it today.
