June 11, 20205 yr comment_477718 Big news from the MB presser on Phase 3 today, which would potentially launch June 21st.... Outdoor gatherings go from 50 people to 100, and residents of Western Canada and Northwest Ontario would no longer need to quarantine for 14 days upon entering the province. Great news for those of us hoping to come home this summer...

Here’s what that means As the coronavirus moves around the country, it's mutating — but that isn't as bad as it sounds) Anew analysis published in the journal Science found seven new strains of the coronavirus that have been circulating in California — and that's according to a very small sample size. Specifically, a group of international scientists looked at samples from 36 COVID-19 patients in nine California counties and the Grand Princess cruise ship from late January to mid-March. Through a phylogenetic analysis — which is when researchers study the evolutionary relationships of genes — they found at least seven different SARS-CoV-2 lineages, including the WA1 strain which has been associated with Washington state. https://www.salon.com/2020/06/11/multiple-strains-of-coronavirus-are-now-circulating-in-the-us-heres-what-that-means/ And you think a vaccine will save us...?

June 11, 20205 yr comment_477758 I jumped about 15 pages so not sure if this was mentioned, but I heard some guy on the radio claiming his car was keyed by Kenora residents because he was visiting from Manitoba. I'd like to add 'Warriors-esque cottage country turf wars' to my 2020 Apocalypse Bingo card please.

The mayor of Kenora had to make an impassioned plea to residents, via the local newspaper, to leave Manitobans alone, because they're bringing much needed money into the local economy. Guess there's a long standing feud between locals and "Those 'Tobans" who come in and "take over" during the summer months, but it's really increased because of the fear of COVID coming from Wpg into Kenora.

June 12, 20205 yr comment_477777 Florida Just Broke Its Record for New COVID-19 Cases Tracy Connor Executive Editor Published Jun. 11, 2020 8:55PM ET Florida just broke its record for most new coronavirus cases in a day. The state, which launched a new phase of reopening last week and which has allowed amusement parks to reopen, reported 1,698 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday—topping its previous high of 1,419 a week ago. Gov. Ron DeSantis says the relaxation of lockdown isn’t the cause of the spike; he insists it’s increased testing. Not everyone agrees. In Seminole County, Emergency Manager Alan Harris said their uptick can’t have anything to do with testing because testing numbers have actually dropped, the Orlando Sentinel reported

June 12, 20205 yr comment_477788 White House Floats Idea Mexico Is Source of COVID-19 Spike White House officials have reportedly tried to make the case that travel from Mexico is to blame for a surge in coronavirus cases across the U.S. rather than the easing of pandemic-related restrictions. Two administration officials cited by the Associated Press said the idea had been discussed at a meeting of President Trump’s coronavirus task force on Thursday. Arizona has been hit particularly hard by a spike in coronavirus cases, along with Texas, Florida, and North Carolina. While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention works to trace the outbreaks, the White House coronavirus task force is said to be discussing the possibility that travel to and from Mexico is behind the upward trend. The country has been hit hard by the pandemic, with 133,000 confirmed cases, but that is only a fraction of the more than 2 million cases documented in the U.S. Cross-border travel has also declined substantially amid the pandemic. https://www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-floats-idea-mexico-is-source-of-covid-19-spike?ref=home (no racism here- right?)
June 12, 20205 yr comment_477789 Second Coronavirus Wave Will Engulf U.S. in September, IHME Model Forecasts -Reuters / Bryan Smith A second wave of the novel coronavirus could rip through the United States around September, according to a new scientific model from the University of Washington’s Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). The researchers foresee the national death toll from COVID-19 reaching 170,000 by Oct. 1, the Seattle Times reports. That would mean around 57,000 more deaths in the coming months, on top of the 113,000 Americans already confirmed to have been killed by the virus so far.
