Think about it - why you saying "a second time" in the Philippines if the first wave is still raging in America? How'd it die out so quickly there in the first wave, with so few casualties, when they're packed into those slums like sardines?

Philippines was one of the earliest countries exposed, they have one of the densest populations in the world, a solid 2/3 of the capital city lives in a slum, the average person's health isn't great (diabetes is rampant). They should be putting up MASSIVE death tolls, by demographics you would think Manila alone would have 10x the NYC death tolls. Yet the entire country still has just 494 deaths out of over 100 million people despite all those disadvantages. That's less than 5 deaths per million people.

Belgium/Spain/Italy have 400-600 deaths per million residents.
Sweden/France/Netherlands/UK have 200-400 deaths per milllion.
USA has 164 deaths/million even with the spread only bad in part of the country (NY has over 1000 deaths/million).
Philippines has 5 deaths per million residents. Just 5.

I didn't say that climate completely wipes out the disease. But with all its MASSIVE disadvantages, how the hell would the Philippines be getting off 100x more lightly than those further north nations if it isn't the weather? Philippines should be much WORSE than Europe, not lighter, just like it's worse for TB and all sorts of other diseases. And this ain't nothing special to the Philippines - Thailand, India, Nigeria, they all should have been going off by now. Even if you say they're missing most cases, there's no way they could hide it if they were putting up Italy/NYC numbers, and they're simply not.




Ecuador where the populated spots are ain't hot at all man, people there live in the mountains, the capital is damn near twice as high as Denver. Today the capital city (Quito) has a low of 47 and a high of 69, with thunderstorms. That's been the same weather all through March/April. Do you think it's a coincidence that the one country in that part of the world that actually has cool weather (due to its elevation) is also the exact country that got hit hardest? Ecuador is literally the one place in the tropics where the deaths look like Europe/North America,

Brazil has a much milder March than most of the countries we're talking about - highs in the 70s and low 80s and lows in the 60s. They were warm but they wen't getting tropical weather yet. And yet their death toll is still only 19 deaths per million people. Unless they're hiding 90% of their deaths, they're not putting up Europe/America-style numbers.

Remember, every single one of these tropical countries should be getting hit much WORSE than the West, not way lighter. You're having to cherry-pick 1-2 out of a hundred countries with warm weather and they still ain't close to the situation that all those further north countries are facing despite FAR more resources and a concentrated effort to stop it.

The trend gotta be clear by now. If the USA has 50,000 deaths, then India should have 5,000,000 deaths. People are packed in like crazy, and while they ain't going out in the streets back in the slums and shyt they ain't social isolating at all, even right now the average Indian must contact 100+ people a day with no social distancing whatsoever. Not to mention that their health and health care is WOAT. How are they avoiding devastation if not for their weather?




The difference between Western nations and the spots I was talking about is that most people in the west live and work in climate control. They be spreading that shyt indoors where they keep the thermostat at 68-72, while people in most of the rest of the world actually experience their climate. Saying that warm and sun slow the spread of the virus don't mean shyt if you ain't out in the warmth and sun.

That being said, these are the USA states getting hit worst in terms of deaths per million:

New York - 1,117
New Jersey - 660
Connecticut - 520
Massachusetts - 400
Louisiana - 365
Michigan - 329
Rhode Island - 203
Illinois - 146
Maryland - 146
Pennsylvania - 141

If it weren't for weather, there should only be three big factors affecting those numbers: Population density, population health, and how well local officials are handling the crisis. We all know that the average health is the worst in the South and that those Southern governors ain't handling this thing for shyt. So why is it that Louisiana (which probably had its huge spike due to Mardi Gras shyt) is the only southern state in the top-10? Some southern states have rural populations so they wouldn't get hit as bad, but Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Austin, Tampa, Charlotte - they all should be getting hit bad bad. So why do none of them look like NYC or Jersey or Boston? You got to go to #15 before you get another Southern state, and like I said, that's EVEN with climate control having an impact.

Some of your info is wrong or I think. If I’m not mistaken both Miami and Atlanta have a worse case of the virus than Boston. Do you have actual city stats to back this up? If so I stand corrected because I posted an article a few weeks back that showed this.


Also I figured Ebola would have completely debunked the rural methodology but it seems as if Americans clearly did not pay attention to the Ebola outbreak.

A week from now you bout to start seeing the “this is real y’all ..stay at home please” posts by some of the same people hanging out right now in GA lol

“Atlanta” depends on how you categorize the term. The county in which Atlanta sits was at 2,543 cases and 91 deaths. Metro Atlanta (multiple counties that surround Atlanta proper) would be a higher number of course.

All the data that I have seen tracked metros.

which makes sense because suburbs are attached to the city and the virus spreads from people to people.

That’s why I’m curious about the data.

 

[SheWantTheD]

Really isn’t a way to gauge if businesses reopening are the cause unless they did the same amount of testing and got a spike in numbers.

Yeah and that’s very fair. Atlanta as a formal city is not large.

Rough count on Metro seems to be 8,264

 

[SheWantTheD]

People ain’t giving a damn. Seen people live on social media at home parties and get togethers.

Not just in Georgia.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

I think reopening is a stupid idea, but COVID-19 doesn't infect + kill in 24 hours

This is yellow journalism

 

[Drizzy Dre]

Crazy how common sense and reading comprehension goes out the window. These cases were NOT NEW. Just new results. The media knows what they’re doing smh...

This whole mess has been more sensationalism than fact.

But y’all stay scared though.

 

[RennisDeynolds]

these cacs do not care, how the fukk is the CDC in Atlanta but you want to do the worst response

After a month, we'll see some scary shyt out of Georgia. Lets not forget South Carolina and Florida who have started opening public spaces as well.

Shout out to Texas for being dead last in testing but wanting to keep up with these idiots as well

 

[The Guru]

Wouldn't put it past them to cook the numbers, undertest, underreport.

I get your point but Brazil and India are two countries that we’ll never get an accurate count from.

There are Brazilian cities already creating and filling mass graves.



Also don’t forget the Georgia has one of the hottest spots in the world in Dougherty County.

I think time is just as much a factor as weather. We just don’t know yet how this virus is going to operate. I’m hoping you’re right.
