Cases != fatalities.
A lot of places are doing a lot more testing. That causes case count to rise. That doesn't mean the disease is spreading beyond control. If it were, the fatality rate would also be increasing, which it's not.
Sorry, but you're going to have to find some other reason to justify your partisan hate boner.
- ggggtez 6y agoYour data doesn't show testing rate. Maybe it could be true, but your data doesn't come anywhere close to showing it... And in fact, when we actually find the data that would prove it, the data shows the opposite. [1] If you check Florida, you'll see that they actually decreased testing by 22%, and still had an increase in positive cases (over 300%!). Testing less, and getting more sick people is basically the definition of it being out of control.

The Governor of Florida is even quoted in this article as disagreeing with you, and admitting that testing doesn't account for the increase. While he might not be an expert, it should make you take another look, as this is politically damaging for him to say his party leader is wrong.
