Correction for NY I guess, +8864 cases while they were down to 6K per day. That still leaves another 4.5K raise from other states.
It is Thursday, usually the peak in reporting before it goes down again for the weekend, yet today is extreme.

Spain 2K extra, Canada still going up, less cases than yesterday but reached a new 3 day avg high.

Ecuador's increased testing is partly responsible for setting a new world record, 105,616 new cases, last peak was April 3rd with 101,566 cases. Last time there was a jump like this in the world data was on April 1st. Current 5 day growth factor sprung up to 1.10x



The USA has been outpacing Europe for the last couple days and is starting to catch back up.

The USA came as close as 8.13 days behind Europe on April 2nd, then started losing ground as Russia entered the field. Together with the Easter dip the USA fell as far back as 11.13 days behind Europe in total case count and it looked like their peak would stay under that of Europe. Currently the reported cases are growing faster in the USA and the USA is now 10.41 days behind Europe.


Despite all the extra reported cases, the reported deaths went down worldwide and in the USA, steady in Europe. Russia still has a lot of growth left in reported deaths but most others are on a decline.



Not a good day, but most of the jumps are from increased testing, so it's not all bad.

It really hasn't.

"I see that disinfectant knocks it out in a minute, in 1 minute, is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and does a number on the lungs".

That is the EXACT god damn quote. It is not taken out of context... It can't be taken out of context.

Correct. Suggesting that you can inject disinfectant into the body is stupid, uneducated and downright dangerous.

If he isn't a doctor, he shouldn't be suggesting this to start with, he is not educated, he isn't trained.
And it wouldn't be interesting to check, we already know the outcome... It's called using common sense which he seems to lack in this instance.

The fact of the matter is, he is supposed to be providing a SITREP or "Situational Update" on the Corona virus and laying out plans of what approach the American government is taking, what approaches they have taken and how the situation is changing/evolving rather than suggest some far-off rubbish that has no real-world application and constantly pat himself on the back with self praise and promotion.

At the moment the entire world is laughing at the USA, laughing at Trump. I'm not kidding.

It's not saving lives.

People in general are stupid. - Remember when Trump suggested that hydroxychloroquine might be a viable treatment for Corona?

Well. Some idiot went out and tried it. And killed themselves... Because they couldn't work the differences out between fish tank cleaner and what Trump was promoting, they saw the word on the bottle and gave it a try. - Trump is the head of state, he wouldn't lie or leed anyone astray or get anything wrong, would he?

Because on one hand Trump says "He's not an expert" but then on the other hand in the same sentence he will say "He is smart".
The two don't go together.

Trump is also the head of state, he represents the entire nation, people follow him, take onboard and even "try" his ideas.

If Trump says something stupid, which in this instance he did... Then he deserves ridicule and condemnation.

Also comparing radiation therapy to injecting disinfectant isn't even remotely the same, back then we didn't have the understanding of chemistry or radiation that we did today, disinfectant and it's effects on the human body have been studied intimately at this point by the scientific method.

Can't believe any of this had to be elaborated upon.

He was looking towards such an expert when he made those crazy statements.

At the end of the day... The best cure for Corona isn't to "try" these various chemicals... It is self isolation and waiting on a vaccine... Aka. A Prevention. - Which is a proven method to combat viruses.

Scientists already know. Trump shouldn't be making suggestions on something he is clueless about, it's downright dangerous.

Trumps ability to form coherent sentences is garbage at the best of times, the problem lays with him.
He needs to some training.

He made a suggestion framed as a question.

There is going to be some bogan somewhere who thinks they are "Protected by Jesus's Blood" that thinks it will work for them and go ahead and try it.

And Trump needs to be held accountable for that as he is in a position of influence.

UV light also damages human cells, which is why you shouldn't sunbathe too long or you get sunburn. And the human skin is the organ that is equipped to deal with a certain amount of UV light, the lungs aren't.

Next time Trump should ask if it's possible to download a COVID-19 destroyer app to your smartphone and use it to clean the virus from your lungs.

A wonderful, beautiful app. A gift from God.

Are you by any chance from Belarus?
Or just happy to comply with their presidents advice?

(relax people, drink some vodka, go to the saunas,... dont blow things out of proportions, go ride your tracktors)

More testing, finding more cases (best explaination, hitting almost 39k confirmed cases).
While spread is slowing in NY ect, its starting to pick up other places in the US.

Others, have you guys seen this?

If infection goes bad (your hospitalised, and moved to ICU), ~97% get Acute Respiratory Distress syndrom (cant breathe).
~23% get damaged kidneys (acute renal failure), and ~9% have heart damage (Acute Cardiac injury).

Even if you survive outta the ICU, life afterwards is gonna be grim.
(bad lunges, bad heart, bad kidneys)

I think nobody should sit on their hands and to expect an election to fall to them on their own. I shared this article, because I think it is interesting, not because I think we should spread SARS-2 to get Trump out of office.

MMS? COVID-19 really brings all the loonies to the yard.

This letter should have never made its way into Trump's hands.  Why aren't the White House staff vetting these letters?  We truly have reached a new low.

The US had the biggest jump so far yet with new cases...39.000 people in 1 day.
