Sorry I missed Wednesday...but I'm back! This one is political. 17 days ago, I received a personal mailer, aka fire kindling, from Donald Trump himself. It said, "30 Days to Slow the Spread". Now I'm not sure if my math sucks, but today, I saw that he said his own followers should rebel against this, and protest to the democrats about how it's either been 30 days, or that he was walking back on his personal mailer. Michigan was one of the first states to do this, protesting social distancing by staying at least 6 feet away from each other...in their cars. Ironically, I did not see an interview by a single medical expert at that protest. They must have been busy or something. Also, please keep Virginia in your hearts as Donald Trump has told VA residents to liberate themselves from Coronavirus to protect their second amendment. I'm actually not kidding.
We are currently ranked 14th in the world for deaths per million. Not bad, but I feel like we're getting cheated out of a top 5 spot at least, since our testing is a dismal 43rd place. This has continued the shrinkage of overall growth rate to 14.47% since January 14th. I also appreciate our laid back attitude about recovery. We lead the world in both total and active cases of COVID-19, but for some reason, we're 4th in recovered cases. But it's not a race, right? North Dakota is our big 1-day winner it looks like, bringing in more than a 10% jump in new cases.
For those who have been getting all of their reliable data from Facebook memes, the CDC has now split their total case count between confirmed and probable. I think I'm okay with this, and will stick to the confirmed data. This helped ALMOST everything. Our confirmed survival rate has now ticked down to 95.37%. This means that 1 out of every 23 people who have a confirmed case of Coronavirus are leaving us. This is actually 36% better than the global average, but 29% worse than last week, and 139% worse than just April 1st. Time to open up Michigan, though!
On a brighter note, Vince McMahon, founder of the ultra successful XFL, is part of the herd leading the way to open the country. This task force, which so far has accomplished as much as the Space Force, announced that the first state to open up will be a host of both their very own Trump rally AND Summer Slam.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
