A big contraction was followed by a bustling aftermath—but with notable negative
long-term effects as well. Total global confirmed cases have reached 2,954,106 At the current daily rate of growth, the number will pass 3 million early next week. Active cases reached 1,887,833 and Recovered cases reached 860,875. Global deaths reached 205.398. With Total cases in the United States have hit 983,229. Active cases were 819,023. Recovered cases hit 108.875, While Deaths also increased to 55,335
which is 2,000 + more than the previous day.
How Satellite Images Reveal the Global Impact of the Coronavirus…
The widely followed University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation forecast is that COVID-19 deaths in the United States will reach 67,641 on August 4. That is an increase from a forecast by the same organization of 60,308 just two weeks ago. However, with 52,400 Americans dead already, over the course of the next 13 weeks, total deaths would need to be only 15,241 for the institute’s figure to be correct. That means deaths per week would need to plummet by 1,722. It raises the issue of whether this model can possibly be accurate. Other models appear more likely to have plausible forecasts. The Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health model currently indicates that, without appropriate social distancing, by mid-May new cases per day could rise to 30,000. The current daily figure is about 18,000. Additionally, MIT’s model forecasts a rise in cases per day, based on social distancing, that would trigger another rapid rise in deaths as well. Taking into account the current death rate and ongoing increase in infections, the chance that only 15,000 people will die in the next 13 weeks is entirely implausible.
New York City Continues to Worsen: Why Some Die Others Don’t?
Cases in New York City numbered 150,473, which is 16% of all cases in the United States. Deaths stand at 11,544, or 22% of the nationwide figure. The number of deaths is growing so rapidly that the figure will reach 12,000 in two or three days. New York City is the 11th largest city in the world, with a metropolitan area population of 18,819,000, based on United Nations estimates. However, none of the larger cities in the world has case or death levels close to New York’s. Tokyo has the largest population of any city in the world at 37,400,068. It currently has 3,586 cases and only 19 reported deaths. Delhi has a population of 28,514,000, which makes it the second largest in the world. The Indian city has 2,514 cases and 53 deaths. Shanghai is the world’s third-largest city, with a population of 25,582,000. Cases counted in China’s largest city number 641, with a total of seven deaths. There is no single way to account for why New York’s case and death levels are tremendously higher than in the world’s other largest cities. Among the explanations is that some of these cities were “locked down” very early in the spread of COVID-19. The state of emergency put in place by Japan’s government may have slowed the spread of the disease in its large cities. Another cause of the tremendous difference in case count between New York and cities in developing nations, particularly India, is that governments outside the developed world do not have sophisticated methods to track and count cases.
Some States Still Have Extremely Few Cases ?
Seven states have total case counts below 1,000. Each is among the smallest states by population. In most cases, they are among the largest states based on square miles. Alaska has only 339 reported cases and nine deaths. Wyoming has only 473 cases and seven deaths. In Montana, there are 444 cases and 14 deaths. Hawaii has 601 cases and 13 deaths, while North Dakota has 748 cases and 15 deaths. In Vermont, 827 cases and 44 deaths were reported. And Maine has 965 cases and 47 deaths. None of these states has what has been termed “hot spots,” where there is a local explosion in the rate of cases reported by day. Based on that, their figures are unlikely to spike soon. Among these states are several counties that have no reported cases at all. They are geographically at the complete opposite end of the spectrum from a huge, densely populated city like New York. America Is Not Too Far From 1 Million Cases:
But When Will It End.
The United States has 927,150 COVID-19 cases, and that figure is rising by about 18,000 a day. Some experts believe case growth in America has peaked. However, at least one widely regarded model shows that new cases could increase to 30,000 a day. At either end of those forecasts, the date when America has a million cases is only a few days away.
New York’s Death Tally Up Slightly Even as Pandemic Subsides!!!
(Bloomberg) — Daily coronavirus fatalities in New York rose slightly to 437, but Saturday marked the sixth straight day of deaths under 500 and hospitalizations dropped to the lowest point since the beginning of April, Governor Andrew Cuomo said. “Twenty-one days of hell but we are back to where we were,” Cuomo said of overall hospitalizations. Almost all indicators showed that the Covid-19 outbreak in New York, still the worst the U.S., was on the “decline,” the governor said. Deaths compared to the peak of fatalities of 799 on April 9.
New cases rose on Saturday by 10,553 compared to 8,130 on Friday, for a statewide total of 282,143, about 10% of all reported coronavirus cases worldwide. The governor had been concerned about a relatively flat but still high number of new hospitalizations, but that figure dropped Saturday to 1,184 from 1,962 a week ago.
“Only in this crazy reality would 1,100 new cases be relatively good news,” he told reporters in Albany.
The number of deaths reported Friday was 422, the third straight day of decline.
Cuomo called the latest death toll “flat” but still “terrible, horrible news.” Cuomo’s press conference —
a daily punctuation of drama during the pandemic — was relatively subdued on Saturday, with no pleas for help or criticism of the federal government’s response. He said, in fact, that he planned to go hiking with this family after the briefing — with a mask.
Although testing is still in short supply, Cuomo said he would expand testing of health care workers,
first responders and essential workers. Cuomo added he was signing an executive order that would expand testing locations by allowing the state’s 5,000 independent pharmacies to conduct Covid-19 tests.

As the world is gripped by the ongoing pandemic, many questions remain about the origin
of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus—commonly known as the novel coronavirus.
Join Epoch Times senior investigative reporter Joshua Philipp as he explores the known facts surrounding the CCP virus and the global pandemic it caused. In his investigation, Philipp explores the scientific data, and interviews top scientists and national security experts. And while the mystery surrounding the virus’s origin remains, much is learned about the CCP’s cover-up that led to the pandemic and
the threat it poses to the world.
From the start of the virus outbreak in China, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has not
been forthcoming with information about the virus. In the early days of the outbreak, medical professionals who sounded the alarm were reprimanded by police for spreading “rumors.” Initially, the CCP said the virus originated at the Huanan Seafood Market, even though it knew patient zero had no connection with the market. Fearing that it might be held accountable for the worldwide pandemic, the CCP shifted its narrative to suggest that the virus originated in the United States and was brought to China by the U.S. military.
As a leading voice in covering China for the past 20 years, we understand very well the CCP’s deceptive nature and its history of cover-ups. With this outbreak, we saw a case of history repeating itself—in 2003, we exposed the CCP’s cover-up of the SARS epidemic in China, far ahead of other media. In this documentary, we present viewers with the known scientific data and facts surrounding the origin of the virus along with experts’ opinions. We don’t draw conclusions, but we point out that serious questions remain about the origins of the virus as well as the CCP’s handling of the outbreak. Some of our viewers felt the documentary was taking a position on the origin of the virus, which was not our intent. The documentary [above]has been slightly updated as of April 14 to better reflect our position, which is not to provide a definitive answer,
but rather to present the known facts.
From the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic to the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa, humankind has lived in
fear of a potent infectious disease that would mark its demise. Dr. Rosalind Eggo is a mathematical modeler
who tracks the spread of deadly viruses, in an attempt to stop them.
In this talk, she combines science with humor and answers the question we all want to ask:
“Will a pandemic mark the end of humankind?” Rosalind Eggo is an Assistant Professor at
the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, in the UK. She received her PhD in the dynamics of the 1918 influenza pandemic from Imperial College London, and then worked at The University of Texas at Austin, USA. Rosalind works in mathematical modelling of infectious diseases. This means she uses computational and mathematical methods to understand the transmission of pathogens through populations. The aim of infectious disease modelling is to understand the routes and mechanisms that drive the spread of infections, so that we can ultimately design interventions to prevent them. Rosalind has worked on analysis of pandemic influenza, Ebola, Zika, cholera, and other pathogens. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
