    yeah, I think that's what is going on, and next, even if every hospital in Florida is full, there may be open ICU beds in Georgia and Alabama, and those two states adjoin other states, so mobility of goalposts would just increase

    it's just bizarre. It's like saying all hospitals in the Willamette valley are full, but Oregon is fine because there are some open beds in LaGrande, Burns, Ontario, and Lakeview

    Just got back from Astoria/Fort Stevens....extremely busy, the roads are as busy as they always are.
    Showers in the park closed notb as many park rangers but the place was packed with huge family celebrations.
    When explored around we always wore our mask, but just the two of us around campfire mask came of.
    We are fully self contained so we didn't need to use park heads and I watch people from a distance go in without mask, may be 60 % had mask on.
    We were able to drive a mile or so south on the beach and park, zero people around, chairs & devil dogs out. Thats was as therapeutic for the spirit as it gets.
    Now, Im back here in the forum bubble just trying to catch up on the drama and ALL THE FAKE NEWS....lol
    KWest has my vote!..................if Biden takes a bad turn with his cognitive abilities.

    I don't know if it was the goal but you just validated El Prez's stance on schooling going forward.

    Good Job ??????

    so, "everybody who wants a test can get one" may still be true here in hawaii, but because of the sunbelt state's surge, in state test PROCESSING will now have to operate at 1/2 capacity as the reagents needed for local labs to complete the tests have been reallocated to testing sites in the states experiencing the current surge. some test results from non-prescribed tests will have to be sent to mainland labs and up to 10 day waits for results.

    Curious why you think that? In states where the government thinks it should shut down, wouldn't that be a plausible way to get what they want?



    FWIW, I can't find any evidence of any state purposely "over-reporting" actual covid cases.
