Data as of 8/13/2020 @4:30 PM:

Total Viral Tests: 4,230,763 (Up +124,403)

Cases Reported: 513,575 (Up +6,755)

Texas is actively suppressing Positive Cases from FDA-approved "highly accurate" antigen tests and the daily case increases going forward are suspect.

Fatalities: 9,289 (Up +255)

Texas tests per 1M population are 159,049 (Up +2,148) which places Texas as the 14th worst State.

Click this link: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us and on the page click the Tests / 1M pop column twice to sort from worst to first

They are using roughly 28.996 million as the population of Texas.

Texas is still mixing Viral and Antibody Tests in the worldometers report on total test numbers which reports 4,611,777 tests which is inflated by 381,014 Antibody Tests.

As of today the real number of Total Viral Tests for Texas is 4,230,763 which works out to be 145,909 per 1M population so Texas is really the 10th worst state in testing
 
Ohio is at 26K new tests.
Ohio is at +1131 new cases, with Cuyahoga County at +121 new cases.
Test Positivity rate is around 4.34% for these new tests.

Ohio's numbers are following the pattern where numbers seem lowest on the weekend and start climbing higher during the week. Today's numbers are close to yesterdays but they're still 800 higher than they were 2 months ago in June.

Is anyone else here having trouble figuring out which of the various sources numbers are accurate? I don't doubt the info posted here, I'm talking more the totals they speak in the national news. Seems to be all over the place. :/
 
WorldOMeters Is consistent on where and when they update from. Same with most individual State websites, they are consistent. Now some States have issues with classification, but that is a consistent problem each day.

Anything that Trump touches is not consistent, like his directive to report to some department, or to some private company now.
 
Thanks, that explains it. I had a feeling that was the case, and that ALL the numbers are undercounts. :(

On an extra stupid note Indiana is opening its movie theaters up next Thursday and the cinemas are selling tickets for 15 cents. :|
 
Yeah, AMC is playing ancient movies you can already stream from home for free.
 
There's a theater here showing oldies like Jurassic Park and some 2019/early 2020 stuff yet. They have a lot of social distancing in place. I have not gone to check it out though.
 
There's been a decline in the number of tests given in the last week or two, especially in states like TX.

Maybe there aren't as many people getting sick and seeking out tests?

That should mean anyone can get tests and get quick-turnaround on the results.

Remember, we were told months ago that anyone who wants a test can get a test.

Then we find that the positivity rates in TX and other states have jumped way up around the same time they had steep drops in the number of daily average tests.

Shenanigans.

Fatalities: 9,602 (Up +313)

Texas tests per 1M population are 160,631 which places Texas as the 14th worst State.

They are using roughly 28.996 million as the population of Texas.

Texas is still mixing Viral and Antibody Tests in the worldometers report on total test numbers which reports 4,657,625 tests which is inflated by 375,584 Antibody Tests.

As of today the real number of Total Viral Tests for Texas is 4,282,041 which works out to be 147,677 per 1M population so Texas is really the 10th worst state in testing

AMC is reopening its theaters next week with 15-cent tickets

https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/13/media/amc-reopening-ticket-prices/index.html

The world's largest movie theater chain will reopen more than 100 US theaters on August 20, the company said on Thursday. In order to commemorate its centennial, AMC is offering "movies in 2020 at 1920 prices" on opening day. That's 15 cents a ticket.

AMC (AMC) added that it expects to open two-thirds of its more than 600 US theater locations by the time Christopher Nolan's thriller "Tenet" hits theaters on September 3. AMC's other US theaters will open "only after authorized to do so by state and local officials," according to the company.

AMC said that it's implementing new safety and health measures to help keep moviegoers safe and curb the spread of coronavirus. That includes requiring all guests to wear masks, lowering theater capacity and upgrading ventilation systems.

After opening day, tickets will still be available for cheaper than usual. Tickets for films like "Inception," "Black Panther," "Back to the Future" and "The Empire Strikes Back" will cost $5.

But now it appears that AMC will finally reopen since some new films like Disney's "New Mutants" on August 28 and "Tenet" on September 3 are set, at least for now, to be released.

-------------------

I have been waiting forever for the release of the much delayed "New Mutants" which has to be theater released because of contractual reasons. I will be going to see it in the local theater here in the Dallas area but will go during business hours weekday to minimize the number of people attending. Mask and gloves will be on at all times and no concession food.

There's been a decline in the number of tests given in the last week or two, especially in states like TX.

Maybe there aren't as many people getting sick and seeking out tests?

That should mean anyone can get tests and get quick-turnaround on the results.

Remember, we were told months ago that anyone who wants a test can get a test.

Then we find that the positivity rates in TX and other states have jumped way up around the same time they had steep drops in the number of daily average tests.

Shenanigans.

Texas Infection Rate Hits Record (9:55 a.m. NY)

Texas’s positivity rate surged to a record 23.9% as questions swirled about how a backlog of unaudited tests may be skewing the calculations.

The statewide figure is at odds with all the other major metrics used to assess the health crisis, such as hospital admissions, fatalities and the rate of transmission. In the Houston metro area, for example, the positive-test rate is 10.5%, down from 20.3% a month ago, according to the Texas Medical Center.

State officials also are contending with a backlog of test results classified as “pending assignment” that reached more than 1 million in recent weeks.

The effect of the backlog may be to shrink the denominator, resulting in an artificially high positivity rate. State health department officials haven’t responded to repeated requests for comment.

----------------------------

Texas remains one screwed up state. The new above problems along with their current and past sins:

Texas is actively suppressing Positive Cases from FDA-approved "highly accurate" antigen tests
and their past: Texas adding useless Antibody Tests to the Viral test count numbers to show higher testing numbers

Our Governor Abbott is an idiot and a lapdog to "individual #1" thus the stupid decisions he continues to make regarding Covid-19 guidance.
 
Related to @digitalwanderer question about Covid-19 numbers... I only partially believe the reason he gave for leaving since he was the one directing the HHS Protect system which seems to be in shambles with it's numbers not matching any of the individual states' numbers.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...nd-more-time-with-kids/ar-BB17Z3UH?li=BBnb7Kz

José Arrieta, the Chief Information Officer of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), resigned Friday evening. Arrieta had only been in his position for 16 months.

According to the HHS website, Arrieta oversaw the Departments $6.3 billion information technology portfolio. Arrieta also managed HHS Protect, a coronavirus data reporting system instituted by the HHS.
...
Arrieta's coronavirus data collection system became the standard for case reporting, replacing the system previously in use by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Some lawmakers complained that the shift away from using the CDC's system would lead to less transparency from officials about COVID-19. Others expressed worries that the system would be used to gather information about undocumented immigrants, allowing them to be deported by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
 
Ohio is at 22.8K new tests.

Test Positivity rate is around 4.88% for these new tests.

Ohio's numbers are following the pattern where numbers seem lowest on the weekend and start climbing higher during the week. Today's numbers are close to the past 2 days but they're still 800 higher than they were 2 months ago in June.

Some Arizona schools cancel classes after teachers take part in 'sickout'
Schools in an Arizona school district had to cancel classes for this coming Monday after teachers staged a “sickout” to protest what they said were unsafe teaching conditions during the coronavirus pandemic.

Gregory Wyman, superintendent of the J.O. Combs Unified School District, wrote in a letter to families published Friday that the district had received “an overwhelming response from staff indicating that they do not feel safe returning to classrooms with students” as well as “a high volume of staff absences for Monday citing health and safety concerns.”

“Due to these insufficient staffing levels, schools will not be able to re-open on Monday as planned. This means that all classes, including virtual learning, will be canceled. At this time, we do not know the duration of these staff absences, and cannot yet confirm when in-person instruction may resume,” he said.

The letter comes after teachers called out sick to protest the district’s decision to hold in-person classes during the pandemic.

Coronavirus spread in Georgia is 'widespread and expanding,' says report

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/c...espread-and-expanding-says-report/ar-BB1802oB
A White House task force report warns that the coronavirus spread in Georgia is "widespread and expanding" and "strongly recommends" a statewide mask mandate, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which obtained the report.

Republican Gov. Brian Kemp was to sign a new order Saturday that would allow local governments to mandate masks, but only on their publicly-owned property, not at private businesses.

"My new Executive Order will protect property rights for all hardworking Georgians," Kemp tweeted Friday.

-- Translation: If you are working at or visiting a business feel free to spread and get the virus. Be sure to personally thank Kemp if you do.

For some asinine reason Kemp thinks the virus doesn't spread in businesses or schools.
