    It's not receding, uh you might want to go read the 383 page coronavirus thread at the top of the board, it most definitely is receding.

    Especially when their governors do not trust them.

    I suggest you look again. Check the dates for yourself.

    Because Lesh says so lol, you guys will do anything to spread BS. Stay in your house Lesh, you don't have to go anywhere. Georgia, TX and Florida aren't NY thank god and the numbers vs the liberal NE is very telling across the board.

    For no reason other than they do not support your hopeful predictions.
    Why do you keep repeating statements you know are not true?

    Good to know you're willing to surrender your rights to someone who says "boo!" loud enough.

    Forget the Waffle House... Stock cars were driving around in a circle for 400 miles yesterday... mirroring right wing logical thinking..

    Well, when the Governor of the State involved retracts his apology for releasing this data, ping me then.

    Until then, GDOH charts/numbers/graphs/plots/spreadsheets are all considered useless...

    Georgia transmission rate has been very stable since April 10.

    I don't think any of us can be trusted to do the right thing. We Westerners are not like the Japanese and Koreans. We won't toe the line for the good of the community. We make everything personal.

    Let me guess .. you'd have been a draft dodger back in the day?

    Plenty of dodgers told themselves there was no war they personally needed to worry about, so you'd be in good company as that goes. Whatever you need to tell yourself to save face ;)

    Texas' numbers have been pretty good with some of the loosest restriction requirements. People social distanced and most are wearing masks....even if people who got furloughed were just out driving around shopping at groceries and home improvement stores instead of working. They mixed with a lot more strangers than they would have at work.

    We also did lock down the nursing homes early and separated those who got infected from others. For the good of the community.

    That's good. I hear Arizona is similar, but that's anecdotal from friends. Their community is behaving cautiously, but others may not be.

    Very good?

    1,000 to 2,000 new cases a day? How's Galveston doing?

    I'm sorry you don't like the fact someone lied to you, and you bought it -- but that's all on you.

    Nothing here changes the fact you're willing to surrender your rights to someone who says "boo!" loud enough.

    To do that, I'd first have to lie.
    You know,. like the people who told you the GDOH re-arranged the dates on their charts.

    What's worse - the liar, or the person who accepts the lie w/o a 2nd thought?

    So now one thousand to two thousand people infected in Texas PER DAY...deserves a shrug?

    I'm willing to sacrifice my own comforts and wants for the good of the nation. I didn't dodge the draft.

    We have roughly that population in my country, and we get about 8 new cases a day.

    Georgia numbers are still dropping since reopenings began. Georgians are voluntarily still social distancing, and people still aren't out in public at the levels they were before the virus, except to parks and beaches.

    https://news.yahoo.com/as-more-stat...on-for-the-rest-of-the-country-164734815.html

    "But now 26 days have passed since the state started to reopen — and that punishing new wave of infections has not materialized. In fact, according to a database maintained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Georgia’s rolling seven-day average of new daily cases — an important metric that helps to balance out daily fluctuations in reporting — has fallen for three weeks in a row."

    I am pretty sure Georgia just got exposed for making data errors and there was no decline.

    From the same source you quoted.
