Arkansas has 140 reported deaths today. Is that a mistake? It’s a 10% increase

Is worldometer counting Veteran Affairs deaths twice? aren't they counted within State death reports as well?

It's fairly clear that the virus is going completely out of control. Something has to be done soon.

But what? Everything we've done thus far has failed.

Well, honestly, I don't know at this point. It's above my pay grade, but an unchecked pandemic will lead to massive deaths.

At least shut down indoor dining and bars. Every bit of evidence I have seen suggests that is the most dangerous public activity going on.

Indoor dining has been going on for months here in DC, and aside from the Rose Garden event, there's never been a massive spike in cases.

Bars, Universities still running in person classes, sports (college football is starting up again soon and people are bound to meet up for their usual grill outs), and a general disregard for safety in Republican heavy areas in the Northeast of the state (saw this with my own eyes in Marinette County) are a big problem in Wisconsin, at least.

Yeah, restaurants are able to regulate their space and ensure proper distance much better than bars and campuses are.
It’s not the distance, it’s closed spaces with AC.

Unless you pull a federal imposed lockdown Corona will keep hitting different parts badly

Whoever the new president is, he’s going to have monstrous numbers of deaths in 10 days

is this a scorched earth policy? Biden entering with 2k dead per day and uncontrolled spread in 48 states?

Undertesting mainly.

Brazilian death rate should be quite similar to American one as well

Love how Minnesota, the ultimate good governance, high social trust/compliance liberal haven out of all 50 states in this country is about to take over the top state in 7 day trailing case total.

But it was totally Kristi Noem and anti-mask Dakota Republicans responsible for South Dakota's outbreak, right? Not the normal weather pattern at all! Smiley Smiley Smiley
Do you love how South Dakota lost over 0.1% of its population in a month?

I assume that by the end of the pandemic death rate will be anywhere between 400-500k, almost completely of voting eligible people and especially old voters. Will deaths have any electoral significance?

3.5K threshold crossed. At current rate we should be at 4K in two weeks.

Crossed the 4K benchmark. I don't think we'll see 5K per day but still very grim. Also America lost 0.1% of its population to Covid this year
