There is plenty of financial and political incentive for the numbers
to be as awful as they can almost justify them to be.
My governor publishes a report every day. The number in my county
keeps going up, never down. So the same guy who got it early and
died, does he still count? How about the ones who got it and
'recovered' ? What about the people who tested only for the
antibody? I guess they count as 'got it', too.
Anything goes, no honesty or transparency required. And the more
dead people, the better.

I see young kids in places like stores wearing masks and they
seem quite OK with it, like having a backpack or a hat, this is
what we do, no big deal go ahead and play or shop or whatever we
are here for. I am reminded of my observation that people who
need glasses from a young age tolerate it a lot better than those
of us who don’t need glasses until we turn 50.
On the other hand, there are some photos circulating of high
school reopening in states like Georgia that are quite
frightening, I hope this is just social media taking things out
of context. I understand at that age the peer pressure to not be
uncool, but if this is really going on all over the place, we
have an experiment going on and may not like the results. Maybe
we will discover that teenagers don’t transmit the virus, but so
far, magical thinking hasn’t worked out so good.

I say treat it like triage. Healthcare workers first, then
essential workers, then people in assisted care and prisons.

I see these articles debating who should get a vaccine first,
some arguing young people should get it because they have
more years ahead of them, basically let the old people die.
But if young people keep acting like idiots, maybe they don’t
have that many years after all. If the virus doesn’t get
them, some other stupid stunt will. Plus they will have
enjoyed their short lives, with all the partying.
Grumble, grumble.

Illinois 7 day positive results average went from 4% positive
to 3.9% positive yesterday. So I guess that's good news.
But reports are a majority of new cases are from college age
kids coming back to campuses and partying.

When I was seeing my Primary doc for a physical, he said
that he feels the only numbers worth looking at are % of
positive tests, and Deaths/infections. The total numbers
don't mean anything.
Here in Illinois, we're sitting at ~4% positive for the
last week, but 4.6% positive yesterday, we were at 2.8%
positive a month ago. I think some of the 'bad' states
are upwards of 10% positive.
