News reports this morning were saying, just as they predicted, new cases of Covid-19 are spiking in states that opened early, prompting governors to consider shutting or slowing down economic activity in their states—again.

Got that? New cases. Not a word about morbidity or mortality rates, just positive cases.

Don’t fall for this. It a media scam. You have to tease out the facts (the science) from the fiction (presidential politics).

Trust me, this is just a continuation of Russian collusion, Ukrainian phone call and orange man bad. All in an effort to muddy the water in the time left before November’s election.
One of those was a big spike brought on by reporting the results of changed testing of prison populations.

If the media were honest, they would report everything right down the line—contextual reporting. But, since it’s plain as day the media is an appendage of the DNC, we get spun news, agenda news, biased news, fake news—take your pick. It’s all a perversion of the free presses’ responsibility under the first amendment.

AstraZeneca agrees to make COVID-19 vaccine for Europe

LONDON — Drugmaker AstraZeneca struck a deal Saturday to supply up to 400 million doses of an experimental COVID-19 vaccine to European Union countries, the latest in a series of agreements as scientists, governments and pharmaceutical companies race to combat the virus.

AstraZeneca plans to begin delivering the vaccine to European countries by the end of this year under the agreement with the Inclusive Vaccine Alliance, formed this month by France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. All other EU member states will have the chance to take part under the same terms as the original alliance members.........

But the way I read it, is that AZ will be preparing the vaccine exclusively for Europe.

The bar graph shows the level of antibodies made in response to the vaccine when given to primates.  Those antibodies neutralize the virus.  The Novavax approach seems to get a much higher response than the other three.

I am roughly familiar with stuff like this after taking second semester Sophomore biology in college (disease and immunity).  We had New Zealand white rabbits and inoculated them weekly with serratia marcescens (harmless to the rabbit), took blood samples, and ran the titers to demonstrate the weekly increase in antibodies.

Florida's case increase does look kind of concerning at this point. It's showing some signs of exponential increase.

I don't attribute it to "easing social distancing" because it would've happened sooner than a month and a half into it if that were the case. Something else seems to be going on there, particularly in the Miami area.

Yeah, I know, it's the Daily Mail, but still...

Vitamin D deficiency increases risk of death from coronavirus
Anglia Ruskin University has found European populations with lower vitamin D levels have had a significantly higher death rate. Another study, carried out in Indonesia, revealed 98.9 per cent of Covid-19 patients with a vitamin D deficiency died.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-8444915/Sunshine-diet-Vitamin-D-plays-vital-role-fighting-coronavirus.html

(This would also explain why we haven't seen the dramatic rise in deaths in sunny states even as cases have risen.)

Questions for lockdown apologists
John Pospichal
May 23

We now have mortality data for the first few months of 2020 for many countries, and, as you might expect, there were steep increases associated with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in each one.

Surprisingly, however, these increases did not begin before the lockdowns were imposed, but after. Moreover, in almost every case, they began immediately after. Often, mortality numbers were on a downward trend before suddenly reversing course after lockdowns were decreed.  ... 

Medium
He discusses the mortality figures for several countries, finally asking:
Quote
: If health authorities vastly underestimated the prevalence of the virus at the beginning of the pandemic, why did the virus nevertheless wait until lockdowns were imposed to suddenly start killing at levels which exceeded normal deaths?
