The "surging" number of dead are not keeping pace with the surging number of tests and cases......simple math about the virus.No it isn't. Extreme examples always used by you libbers like El Paso or North Dakota(get real) are not significant to the overall impact of the virus to US citizens. There are reasons certain areas do not handle their virus cases as well as others. You are trying to make this or keep this hype going and it simply isn't true. Daily numbers form patterns and averages that prove to be the true impact over time...not spotty deviations. Critical cases falling, mortality rate falling, testing and cases on the rise.Your insistence on focusing on rates is clouding your judgement.No those are not facts. Regionally hospitals may be seeing spikes, but on Worldmeters there are 22,495 critical cases out of 4,600,458 total active cases. That is a .488% critical case rate and that has been declining just like the current 2.1% mortality rate has day over day for the past months. Facts are not misleading propaganda is.Facts can be very misleading for the reasons I stated. Hospitalizations are way up, this is a fact. The number of serious cases are way up, this is a fact.Just a thought.....still the case counts are high and the serious cases and deaths are down no matter how many deaths are added. Those are facts.
What you call 'extreme examples' are the crisis points where a large proportion of the deaths are coming from. New York faced the exact same problem at the beginning of the pandemic....their hospitals filled up. They shipped their dead out by the truckload because they had no place to put them.
That you ignore the overwhelmed hospitals and pretend they don't exist doesn't change the fact that El Paso's morgues are so full after surges of COVID dead that they're having ship corpses to nearby cities.
Nor do the surging number of dead around the country disappear because its inconvenient to your argument. Again, we lost 2000 just yesterday. 1600 the day before that.
Your premise that national averages 'prove' that there are no hospitals that are overwhelmed is nonsense. And demonstrably false.
