I'm sure we can all agree not 100% of people wear masks 100% of the time. I'm sure we can also agree ALOT more folks wear masks now then say back in April. So if that is the case, and masks work, why are #'s going up? Just more testing?
The CDC said early on and the WHO said within the last month that 10% of the population has or has had COVID-19. That would equal 36,000,000 Americans alone.
That means we haven't found 27,000,000 cases. I have been saying for months that with increased testing we will find more cases, that doesn't mean there's a surge in anything.
As with the high profile NFL cases (and White House staff), the vast majority of people don't even know they have it. As with the high profile NFL cases (and the White House staff), most recover quickly and without symptoms.
The hyperbole is politically motivated. COVID-19 is far from a death sentence they're selling it to be, but democrats and their media are trying to ride it out until November 3
