If death&hospitalizations are flat or down,then more testing is giving us an idea of how many are infected. We need the antibody tests to be available without a doctor’s order know if that cold/flu/weird illness that some of us had in Jan,feb,mar, or apr was really CV19

That's how herd immunity works. People have to get sick. How low is that death rate? Why don't you do a story on why the CDC keeps falsifying numbers.

Idc.. move on fear-mongering and race-baiting

Here in NH they’ve tested over 120,000 people just to find over 6,100 cases. It’s a waste of time & money to constantly test everyone. You're looking for a needle in a haystack. Someone is making a ton of money off this needless testing. Wash your hands, wear a mask & distance.

Ahhh!!

cases not death's

this is nothing. wait till schools open in the US

Death rate continues to decline...herd immunity imminent. US, Europe and Canada showing similar curves. Look at China.

... as death rates continued to decline.

Cases do not equal Illness.

And US had over 70K! We’re number 1 again!

This was dumped on the world by the Chinese Communist dictatorship. We have to get our supply chain and our dependency on China back to the USA as soon as possible. I don't care about Hunter Biden's contract.

Cases , cases , cases. Nothing about the declining death rate

NPR: I don’t care about new cases, I care about hospitalizations, and deaths.

how the deaths tho

💤😴💤😴💤💤💤😴😴😴

TrumpThreatensAmerica

I always thought a modern mass-extinction event would be something like an asteroid hitting Earth or weather event like a hurricane/blizzard/tsunami. But it's COVID + Republicans.

Did testing hit a new record also? What was the change in the positivity rate? TELL THE WHOLE STORY!

Unless this data is corroborated with daily mortality and the relative percentages, it’s not very useful.

It’s hard to imagine why the Trump administration hasn’t declared the Corona Virus USA outbreak a national security threat. Should he? Please take quick POLL:

Just as dangerous as the common cold to healthy people. But let's create hysteria.

Meh. Still less deaths than the flu from Oct-Apr

So much for the heat killing it...

Wait until next week....

protest spike

Is it flattening?
