At the first Coronavirus Task Force Presentation in 2 months, Dr. Birx refutes Trump’s claim that the only reason there are more cases is because there is more testing by showing a graph of Texas where positivity rates were declining as testing was increased in May, then the positivity rate began to rise in last 2.5 weeks with more testing.

Birx says they have concerns about states that have both rising numbers of cases and rising test-positivity rates. She says the two top states for test-positives are Texas and Arizona, followed by FL, MS, SC, AL, GA, LA, NV, UT.

It looks like the hoax has come to red states

Did Trump say that the ONLY reason there are more cases is because there is more testing? Maybe I just missed the ONLY part. If he said ONLY that would be a misstatement. But maybe he meant, if he did say ONLY, that it is because more testing will always reveal more cases which wouldn't be discovered with less testing--which applies no matter what the actual rise or reason for it is.

Did Trump say that Coronavirus does not exist, that it is a hoax? I missed the part where he said it didn't exist. Maybe he missed it too since he has been doing so much to fight it.

Amid surging infections, VP Pence said "there may be a tendency" to think the U.S. is where it was two months ago, "that we're in a time of great losses & great hardship." "The reality is we're in a much better place," he said.

The U.S. set a record for daily new cases yesterday, what will the number be on July 25th?

Feb 25: 0 deaths
Mar 25: 938 deaths
Apr 25: 53,755 deaths
May 25: 98,220 deaths
Jun 25: 124,355 deaths
