Look at this data. New York's deaths per million of population is simply staggering. No other state on this chart even comes close.

And Cuomo gets tummy rubs from the NY press. Aren't they supposed to be tough?

And don't for get ****ing fraudster Fauci, saying New York and Cuomo did things the right way.

He has Hillary Clinton so far up his ass he'll say anything the piece of *****

Yeah, math is hard. That is why reporters go into journalism

Cuomo is the backup candidate for Biden if/when he is beyond the point the media can carry him.

Aren't they supposed to be tough?

The legacy media is the propaganda wing of the Democrat Party. Period.

They are FAR less objective than Donald J. Trump is about Donald Trump.

Thought we all knew this, but whatever.

I am being slightly unfair to Cuomo as New Jersey is even worse.

The northeast, followed by DC, has suffered the most deaths on a per capita basis.

Has anyone asked why?

What's up with Texas and Florida? Didn't the media say we'd all be dead already?

It'll take Two more weeks probably

Yes, but NY deaths were a month ago!! Quit living in the past!

Why would anyone in the media ask why? They know why. These governors forced nursing homes to accept covid patients following Cuomo's lead.

The media's job is to cover stories. With a pillow.

Not any more. NY press are propagandist children.

It begs the question. Are some hospitals way more competent than others? We always knew the answer to that question is yes. COVIDs is screaming this at the data gathering sites.

If Sweden were a state it would be behind 7 states and DC on that list while not locking down.

Yikes. Edited.

The press is focusing on TX and FL because of the election. They think it will swing them blue.

Was listening to Gorka on my drive with a person tracking New Jersey deaths. I was in traffic and didn't catch it all, but I'd heard: of 24 "new deaths" for the day" only 1 was for the whole month of July. They were backlogging earlier fatalities to push to current stats due to poor original accounting practices. If this is so, the new death totals should merge closer to the rest of the country showing sharply reduced fatality rates with better, more informed treatment. The false positive attacks (putting an already elderly sick person in the COVID quarters based on bad data) is going to see a higher QC, going forward and thus less opportune scenario to fluff the stats, now that the cat is out of the bag.

After seeing the poor nurse in NY openly admitting this to be an excuse to fill the hospital coffers and allowing otherwise healthy but temporarily sick people be forced into bad hospital practices, putting non-COVID patients into COVID corridors only to see them contracting COVID and DYING... this is about as close to CRIMINAL as hospital mgmt can get.

Exactly.

Today, I heard on MSNBC that New York and Connecticut are leading the nation in stopping the spread while Texas and Florida are out of control with new cases on the rise. At that point, I switched the radio back to music.

The New York and New Jersey death rates were related to a lot of factors, including Cuomo sending those people back to nursing homes. But there are other factors.

The timing of the virus up there was so soon after the outbreak that they still had no clue how to treat it. It took them a while to figure out intubation as a last resort instead of an early intervention and the use of systemic blood thinners. Once they got the hang of how to beat the virus the death rate dropped. Italy and Spain had a similar experience.

Texas was lucky in that the initial outbreak wasn't huge and the initial social distancing seem to help slow the spread enough to buy time to get more information and PPE. Patients being treated in New York and Texas today would likely have very similar death rates.

And meanwhile California just had a record day. But it goes unnoticed.

Do you have a link to this source? I'd like to look at the full list.

Yup. Just wait for Beto to start appearing on tv commercials in the fall.

Exactly.
New York ****ed up to start with compared to Texas.

Then New York ****ed up again by staying shut down.

Many people in NJ households work in NY and commute.

Deaths-per-million has been the main data point I've watched, and Texas has done an outstanding job.

Also read the other day that 16 in 20 deaths in New Jersey took place in senior living centers. How is their governor not in federal prison for what he did, as well as Cuomo.

They will have to answer to a higher authority someday.

I think it was the CDC who hypothesized that it was Northerners vacationing that helped seed the spread in Florida, Texas, and Arizona. Has anyone seen any follow up?

pretty funny if we could @#$%@ up the South on them as well.

Internal to California, it is used everyday to justify the continued lockdown and in fact the reversal of opening up.

But at the National Level, you're right, it's all political.

They were going after Georgia pretty hard early on but I guess people in GA stopped getting the virus or stopped dying or both. Anyway, Georgia stopped fitting the narrative so they stopped reporting on it.

I'm curious to see if it will be possible to examine the death rate for OG covid vs. the mutated strain.

There's likely 3 or 4 competing factors for why NY/NJ got hit hardest.
