MexiCOVID

There is a coronavirus story that is not being told in the national media ... and that is that Mexico is one of the hottest spots in the world. Its cases, at 324 thousand, now top Spain (306 thousand) and italy (244 thousand). And its deaths, at 38 thousand, also top Spain (24 thousand) and Italy (35 thousand). Even Mexico’s new deaths so far today (668) are almost half the total for the whole world (1,481)!

Is the light starting to dawn ... why the Southwest of the United States might also be having a spike in new COVID cases and even a blip in new deaths? One would think that a good reporter (or the CDC) in this area of our country might investigate this further to see how many of our new cases there are actually border crossers ... ex-pats and Mexican workers attracted by our superior medical facilities?

Calculations

On ABC this AM, Martha Raddatz was grilling the head of the FDA, Dr. Stephen Hahn, with her buzz-saw confrontational style, asking him if Trump was correct when he said yesterday that “99 out of 100 people who get COVID-19 will be Ok?”  ... clearly making it blatantly apparent that the Orangeman was, once again, lying (#18,587).

Now, the CDC-official death rate from this virus is 0.2% ... see: USA Today Story ... but authorities believe that there may be 10 to 20 times more asymptomatic cases than those officially diagnosed. Even ignoring this multiplier, those CDC stats suggests that just 2 people out of 1,000, who get COVID, die. And even if five-times as many who die suffer other side effects, we still are just approaching Trump’s assertion.

QED. The Donald wins again.
