Part 2

This part is all about the Big V. I figured I'd start this one with a fascinating little dance performed by Gov. DeWine yesterday morning as he tries to sugarcoat and twist, and excuse the epically low V numbers.

So let's take him at his word, and give him a couple days for the numbers to settle out, shall we? Though just looking at our V-stats, I don't think there's much hope that we're looking at just reporting lag anymore.... Image

So here we are - as of June 5th we have officially dropped below the magical 50 cases/100,000 metric that Gov. DeWine set for us on March 4th. Once this goal was met, we were told, ALL health orders were to be removed.
Please watch the attached video to hear it yourself how explicit he is.

But, as always, he never keeps his promises. He moves that goalpost yet again.

There are many orders still in place, specifically regarding long-term care facilities and at-home care services.

Congratulations, everyone!

Right on schedule! Almost as if they could calculate it from the epidemiological curve and that minor matter of dropping test volume by over half in the last 6 weeks. But there's NO RELATIONSHIP. Promise! Image
All this good news is because of all the people who have take The Thing! For sure! Because we said so! Of course, v-starts have crashed through the floor with the older age groups far lower than they have ever been before. Image

Cases over 2 weeks continue to drop, but there's been a recent small uptick in cases in the last 7 days, both probable and confirmed. Probables as a percentage of total new reported cases continues to be pretty high as it has been over the last few days. Image

V-starts. Wow. The word 'collapse' doesn't quite encompass it. If Gov. DeWine's goal was to 'stem the bleeding' - well, he has (predictably) failed. Image

I've decided to split today's misinformation into two parts - first, the cases:

Absolute collapse are the two words to describe them. Although the proportion of probables is up again - coincidentally at the same time of the week as it was last week and the week before and so on.
Almost like there's a certain number of antigen tests being performed in the state every week, and that these antigen tests have a certain false positivity rate. But I'm sure this pattern is just coincidence.
But the other great news is that at this rate, within just 2 days we will have *magically* reached our Metric of Freedom. Coincidentally right when they thought we might!

- READ THE REDACTIONS -

Sometimes it's in the empty spaces where most meaning sits. Most people have been slicing away at the whole and complete emails from Dr. Fauci's email FOIA release. And, admittedly, some of those intact emails are highly satisfying to read.
But what is far more interesting are the pages of greyed out redactions. Consider pages 1567-1572 from his emails.
They are of his correspondence with Dr. Kenneth Bergmann, Senior Medical Officer in the Division of Neurology in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at the FDA that took place between April 4th - April 15th, 2020.

Well, someone clearly wants this whole cases thing to end, and end fast. We continue our staggering plummet in cases.

In just the past 5 days, we have dropped over 2k total cases over 14 days, if we continue this trend, in 5 days, we will be under 50/100k over 14 days. Woohooo!
Again, I am sure this has *nothing at all* to do with the fact that for the last 3 days we have data for, the number of tests given has fallen between just 9000 and 17,000 total tests given - far below the 60,000+ given daily throughout the months of March and April.
⭐️ Fun fact: we have the same positivity rate now with just 9000 tests given as when there were 60,000 tests given. But for sure our 'cases' aren't being influenced by testing!
