All those cases this weekend where related to outside travel and members of the house hold who tested positive last weekend. 

Would you like to know more?

Dr. Brent Roussin, the chief provincial public health officer, said a previous case of COVID-19 that was announced on Friday is a woman in her 30s who contracted the virus after travelling from Ontario. He said she was self-isolating at the time, and is in the Winnipeg region.

On Saturday, two men in their 30s were announced to have COVID-19, while another case, a man in his 20s, was announced on Sunday. Roussin said all three cases were household contacts of a previous case, and were in the Winnipeg region.

A cheap and widely available drug called dexamethasone can help save the lives of patients who are seriously ill with coronavirus.

Lead researcher Prof Martin Landray says the findings suggest that for every eight patients needing ventilators that you treat, you could save one life.
In patients on oxygen, you save one life for every 20-25 or so treated with the drug.

UK experts say the low-dose steroid treatment is major breakthrough in the fight against the deadly virus.
It cut the risk of death by a third for patients on ventilators. For those on oxygen, it cut deaths by a fifth.
The drug is part of the world's biggest trial testing existing treatments to see if they also work for coronavirus.

Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, Texas See Record Number of New Coronavirus Cases

Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, and Texas reported record numbers of new coronavirus cases on Tuesday. Arizona saw an increase of 2,392 cases since Monday, while Florida saw a bump of 2,783 new cases, Oklahoma reported 228 new cases and Texas had 2,622 new cases. Texas, following another concerning trend, has reported a record number of hospitalizations for the fourth straight day Tuesday, marking 2,326 hospitalized coronavirus patients in the state. The upward case trend across several states comes as all 50 states work to ease restrictions. Florida crossed the 80,000 case mark Tuesday, while Arizona’s weekly average of daily cases has nearly tripled compared to two weeks ago. President Donald Trump is set to host a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, this week, despite the spike in cases.

Vice President Mike Pence lied about Oklahoma’s coronavirus data on Tuesday and said that the campaign will be taking some safety precautions, including temperature checks.

Dr. Fauci delivers a disturbing revelation about the US’ pandemic infrastructure at the beginning of COVID-19

Back in February, the U.S. surgeon general sent out a tweet telling Americans to “STOP BUYING MASKS! They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching #Coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can’t get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our communities at risk!” This flies in the face of the CDC’s insistence, less than two months later that Americans should consider wearing, at the very least, cloth masks when interacting out in public.

Top infectious disease specialist Dr. Anthony Fauci sat down for an interview with The Street on Friday to explain what was going on in those early months, when government professionals, under the White House direction, began to give out what is clearly incorrect medical information about masks and their function to the general public. It turns out, our country’s lack of preparation for this pandemic, mixed in with our country’s completely incompetent and narcissistic leadership, meant that officials like Fauci felt compelled to tell half truths as damage control.

Southern states is screwing things up for everyone...  spikes centred around industrial food facilities, nursing homes and prisons...

Shocking. Southern States screwing things up. Feel bad for the people who live in these States, get what’s going on, do what’s needed to the best of their ability but are clumped in with the knuckle dragging Neanderthals walking around blustering their liberty or death into megaphones cloaked in their confederate flags.

More record highs in average new cases reported for some states

12:15 p.m.

A host of states in the western and southern United States have seen coronavirus cases climb in recent days, raising fears of a new wave, as infections dwindle in other states that were initially hit harder.

That trend continued in some states Wednesday. Oklahoma registered another record for single-day new cases (259); its rolling average for cases has hit records five days in a row. California set another record in its rolling average, while North Carolina’s average dropped by one case, breaking a streak of 15 new highs in a row.

Florida reported 2,610 new cases Wednesday, second only to Tuesday’s 2,783, while the state’s seven-day average rose to a new high for the 10th day in a row. Florida’s new-case average has risen 78 percent from a week ago.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) earlier this week blamed testing patterns after the state recorded a series of record highs, saying more testing in “high-risk environments,” including farms with migrant workers, jails and long-term care facilities, has boosted the numbers. State agriculture authorities quickly denied that agriculture is a “primary driver” of infections, and a Miami Herald investigation found that a recent upward trend in cases could not be traced to just testing.

Texas’s coronavirus hospitalizations have risen six days in a row, according to state data, reaching a record of 2,793 on Tuesday — up nearly 11 percent from the record set Monday, though state health authorities noted that the latest numbers reflect both new cases and positive diagnoses for nearly 1,500 Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmates whose cases were not previously incorporated.

The state’s hospitalizations are concentrated in the Houston and Dallas areas and are up about 85 percent since Memorial Day.

Some officials in places experiencing surges of cases have sounded alarms, warning people not to let up on precautions and raising the prospect of tightening restrictions to encourage social distancing. Others, such as DeSantis, have said they will not resort to another shutdown, while the vice president has dismissed fears of a “second wave.”

One night in a Florida bar infects 16 customers and 7 employees with coronavirus

Lynch’s Irish Pub, where 15 customers and at least seven employees became infected with coronavirus in one night, forcing it to close temporarily for cleaning. Florida and other states are seeing spikes in infections as they reopen - prematurely, some epidemiologists warn.

Celebrating at Lynch’s Irish Pub on June 6 in Jacksonville Beach after months of assiduously following quarantine rules, Crisp, a 40-year-old health care worker, let her precautions lapse.

"I think we were careless and we went out into a public place when we should not have,” Crisp told WJXT of their trip down Denial Lane. “And we were not wearing masks. I think we had a whole ‘out of sight, out of mind’ mentality. The state opens back up and said everybody was fine, so we took advantage of that.”
