We have now dropped to just 914 confirmed cases over the last 7 days. That's 130 cases per day. 1.48 cases per county per day. If we go with total numbers over 14 days, we're at 2.9 cases per county per day.
Our percentage of 'probable' cases has continued to remain high. As a reminder to those who critique my focus on the ridiculousness of continuing to count 'probables' as full cases, I direct their attention to fda.gov/medical-device…
Our vaccinations have, as expected, continued to fall, though today's reported numbers have bounced up from yesterday's record lows. And again, these numbers will be interesting to watch after Friday's 'emergency' meeting about myocarditis.
Apologies upfront for the complexity of this post today, but the delaying of the 'emergency' meeting regarding myocarditis in younger individuals is beyond shocking and irresponsible.
In this post I have attached my commentary directly to each of these images, please read each and consider them carefully.
This article details cases of myocarditis in younger men, in particular, following mRNA accines. Note the relative specificity of timing - usually within 4 days after the second dose.
Note the very high rate for individuals between 16-30 years of age.
Also note the date - 4/27/21
Cases, of course, continue to fall, with ~239 total cases reported per day over the last 14 days, which equates to just 2.71 cases per county per day.
We're down to just 878 confirmed cases over the last 7 days - which equates to just 125 cases **for the whole state** per day, and 1.42 confirmed cases per county per day.
Our 'probable' cases remain proportionally high, even with a higher number of reported cases today. Interestingly - for whatever reason we have returned to having a more significant number of reported cases occurring greater than 2 weeks ago.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
