Catholic Schools in Chicago opened. The playground for the school next to me is the paved-over street in front with benches and a tree or two. People, dogs and children walk through here because it is the street and the sidewalk. Possession is 9/10 the of the law and the teachers of this school have the attitude of possession.

No masks and they are supposed to be giving kids an education which seems to be ordinary laws do not apply them. Muh freedom for everyone equally. (Mexican-American and Latino school) It would be bad enough if Chicago and Illlinois were holding the line on coronavirus but as everyone on this topic knows Chicago and Illinois are losing.

Chicago has a mask mandate. Illinois has a mask mandate. Education. You have to keep the schools open for all the valuable learning these kids would not get through remote learning.

I like completely forgot about this thread for a week or so. I used to check this thread many times a day. It is very weird how so many seem determined to act like everything is fine when it is actually much worse.

I have to make the comparison as well that people seem more used to protesting and general civil unrest. BLMs approval ratings were super high after the George Floyd killing and have now dropped to levels previous of that incident.

It's like this country at large doesn't want to learn a lesson about anything and just wants to maintain status quo with a fingers in the ears type attitude. Like I'm trying to be a "good" person and treat all of the major ills currently facing society with seriousness, but I still feel fatigue. Everything feels so much more stressful and I just want to forget about it sometimes.
Yeah, people eventually got burnt out from both. It doesn't matter if things have gotten better or not.

My county changed their active case numbers from over 1,000 to under 200. Something about the CDC saying that everyone confirmed case would be dropped as active after 21 days because they can't follow-up on everyone. Of course, those in the hospital still have their status known. Now the CDC came back and said, nah, make the cutoff point 14 days although after 10 days they're no longer able to infect others.

Everyone coming in at work (including a co-worker) went on about how COVID-19 is overblown and that more people die every day (over 7,700) in the U.S. so why the fuss over the disease and how come they need to wear masks. >_<

So what redneck town do you live in
It's TN. The entire state is exactly that.

Everybody coming in to work today (most of staff) and the public have the attitude that COVID-19 is over with. CDC stated that nearly 9,000 people have died from the disease so people are taking to it with saying how those 180.000 with underlying diseases would have died from anything else. The county numbers have been reduced since the CDC is now only counting those that have been active for 10 days. Also, the mask mandate is lifted starting on Monday.

It was weird. It reminded me of the start of May when everyone and everything shut down for a month and was all like "hey, we did our time so it's over with." No more mask wearing, no sanitizing materials at work, school just started, Labor Day weekend....it's an eerie feeling like we're doing everything possible to go back to where we were but worse.

"Despite getting rid of the mandate area-wide, face coverings will still be required to enter county-owned buildings. This won't affect the mandates of the Williamson County Schools or the Franklin Special School District Boards of Education, Anderson said. "

Looks like face coverings are still required in the building.

Each county is doing it differently. Some will still require the public to wear one while others just have their employees.

Aug 30: 79k
Aug 31: 68k
Sept 1- 78k
Sept 2- 82k
Sept 3- 84k
Sept 4-87k
Sept 5- 90k
Sept 6- 91k
Sept 7- 75k
Sept 8- 89k

The US only passed 78k cases once during this entire pandemic. So India on pace to probably pass US. They just had like 1 million new cases over the last 2 weeks or so. That has to be a record.

India's median age is, I am guessing, low enough that India will not pass US. India 28.4. USA 38.3.

I was referring to the total cases. India is up to 95k on worldmeter for today which would break their 91k record from a couple days ago. With deaths while it wasn't what I was talking about in my posts. I thought it was generally accepted deaths was a lagging thing anyway. So it might take a couple weeks to see the death total.

This probably has to do with their population size. Hopefully they can flatten their curve soon. 100k cases a day scary.

So Illinois' positivity rate went below 4%. I am just mentioning it as I am clueless as to how with all of the college campuses blowing up, Labor Day Weekend and Archdiocese schools opening.

I found it interesting that one Illinois University put all the students under 2 week quarantine to be self-enforced.

On an unrelated note the Nebraska supreme court just bent over democracy and fucked it with a tree branch by removing medical marijuana from the ballot after people spent all fucking summer gathering petition signatures in the middle of a pandemic and got more than the required amount to put it on the ballot

Kankakee County Illinois https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kankakee_County,_Illinois

https://www.theherald-news.com/2020/09/08/covid-19-positivity-rate-for-will-kankakee-counties-falls-below-8/axm4k1h/

*
.

It is a disturbing trend that rural areas have rising positivity rates. There is less access to health care and maybe? the attitude that coronavirus is like big-city crime and only happens in the big city?

Positivity rates in Illinois are driven by work related tests, by where the free tests are located and who has time to wait for them; and many other factors (I have not thought of)

For whatever reasons Illinois is below 4% but Kankakee/ Will County just slid under 8% on September 9. These counties are just far enough south of Chicago not to be considered suburbs. The St. Louis area (Metro East) is at 10%.

It is just weird that East Saint Louis is higher than Chicago. Chicago has some of the best hospitals in the country depending on metric. The patient evaluation goes to Rush Presbyterian St. Luke and the professional evaluation goes to University of Chicago Hospitals. This is a factor. Chicago has important people depending on it. Another factor.

My zip code 60608 has gone down to 8.1% with a cumulative of 14.9%. Yesterday was Sunday. There were people of all ages out and no one wore a mask. I did not see one mask Sunday. My guess is that all of the people who would wear a mask are staying home.

India is different. The numbers are stuff not even US or Brazil have done. US passed 78k cases once. India has done it for like 2 weeks straight now. So at this pace India will probably pass US in total cases within 3 weeks.

They do have more people than both the US and Brazil combined.
