Yeah, the test numbers are all whacked.
A local fire chief was telling me about one of his guys that contracted covid-19 and recovered quickly enough. The city wouldn't let him come to work until after two successive negative tests, since he was a "first responder."
So every other day for three weeks he got tested, then backed off to twice a week. Six weeks into this, he finally tested negative.
As far as "the system" is concerned, they tallied up ~15 "new cases" when it was just one guy was trying to get back to work.
The only two numbers that are difficult to refute:
1) How full are the hospitals/ECUs?
2) Increase in overall deaths (compared to average by month).
I wear a mask out in public. It causes me no grief and "path to least drama" when interacting with others. Also, I wear it properly; over the nose. If I'm gonna do something, I'm going to do it right. Chin diapers are about as useful as an aero wing on a pickup.
