The death rate is lower, it's the result of older people and more at risk people staying home and the young protesters doing the spreading.

Flat?

The only one triggered is you getting triggered by reality. Yeah the overall numbers may look flat, but this is a giant country not all getting hit at the same time. States in the shit are anything but flat.

What people don't realize is deaths don't happen on day one, they happen when the health care system can't keep up. When people were boasting about low death rates despite high numbers of infections, they were missing the point. This virus doesn't kill instantly, it kills when people can't get the proper treatment. The higher infections meant more people in the hospital which meant less attention to each patient which ultimately leads to deaths.

I can just imagine TC seething over the flat death rate for weeks because he didn't have any counter argument against it. And now finally, finally when there is a SLIGHT increase in deaths, he's dancing on his heels screaming "YES! More people are dying! In your FACE, trolls!"

I'm pretty sure no one is happy this is happening, but you knew that.

See the funny thing about death rates is the more people diseases kill, the less people they kill because there's less people spreading the disease around.

So when the death rate is "flat" at 50/day, that is actually really fucking bad.

When we see a climbing infection rate, but a flat death rate, it implies that the vulnerable have already been wiped out. That's also really fucking bad.

Context being cases have been spiking since June but deaths are still relatively stable because its been predominantly younger people ignoring safety precautions.

The context you want to make is that healthy and dead aren't the only two states of covid. But Tc are already sailed past that.

A 400% increase (in Florida and Texas) is not a SLIGHT increase

Florida and Texas graphs are both shown before and don't show a 400% increase. They show 50-75 to 150. So how are you getting to 400%

In states where cases are spiking, deaths are also. Its not relatively stable in those states by any means

h

it's spiking in 40 out of 50 states, saying "just these 3 count" is what a troll would do. Kinda like going, "Oh sweet people are dying now's my chance to make this topic!"

anyone who thinks because people weren't dying "enough" means covid wasn't serious aren't going to listen to anything but emotion. Just like you don't want to listen to anything but emotion when you want to say these 37 states don't count because they don't support my emotional feelings.

Cases have spiked across the country since june, deaths are still holding at the same level. That's a statistical fact. What an intelligent person does is goes, "Why aren't they spiking with cases". They aren't because it's largely lower risk people that are breaking safety procedures, combined with doctors getting better at treatment. We're starting to see upticks in specific states that are starting to fill up their hospitals that makes it more difficult for those doctors to give treatment. Which has been the entire point of flattening the curve is ensuring our hospital don't get overrun.

Argue intelligently or it makes your point dismissable. Healthy or dead isn't the two states of covid. Death isn't the only risk of Covid.

A 400% increase from 1 is 4. Is that not a slight increase either? Context matters, especially when looking at the national trend.
