SC Covid Cases
- Thread starter Intracoastal
- Start date
Really trending the wrong direction the last few days. It flattened for a while but the numbers are what they are. SC is now hotter per capita than FL who appears to be declining in cases now.
Florida is beginning to drop fairly steeply both in Cases and in Hospitalizations.
Oddly enough, and I don't mean to get political but.....The cases began to decline roughly the exact same time that kids went back to school. They have been flat or declining the last 2 weeks with the majority of schools not requiring masks. This week case counts are actually falling sharply. So it kind of makes you question yet again if it ever made sense to hold them out.

SC on the other hand is still very much in the middle of their peak. This is the worst week so far for this recent surge. Very similar to what we went through back in January after the holidays. Lets hope and pray that it starts to go the other direction soon.
My question would be how much do you trust Florida's reporting. I think I would trust them more if they were fully transparent.
Lawsuit filed for return of daily COVID-19 reports in Florida
Florida discontinued daily COVID reporting on June 4 because cases were falling and vaccinations were rising, but as cases now climb, the state is refusing to restart daily COVID data reports.

Florida Department of Health Sets the Record Straight on False Data Claims by the Miami Herald | Florida Department of Health
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Today, the Miami Herald published an article riddled with contradictions and false claims – specifically in regards to their front page headline[https://www.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article253796898.html]: “Florida changed its COVID-19 data, creating an ‘artificial...
SC daily cases have decreased every day since the 25th. Down about 1200 case per day.
Again I ask. Why so many probables to push 3500 cases to 5000 for their tweet when testing is done left and right for every person with even a sniffle?
Are we to believe 1500 people said to hell with getting a test and their doctor just said "we will just report a probable, no need to test"?
Just a thought here but maybe because lack of vacations for those families who are back in school is why Florida is seeing a drop in cases and hospitalizations?
Not meant to be snarky either. Genuinely throwing out the idea is all.
I think it just burned out like it always does for an area. It always peaks around 8 weeks regardless of masks, school, social distancing, etc. Virus is gonna virus.
I ignore those numbers as they will or will not end up testing positive at some point. If they do, they will be added to the confirmed number. If not, they just kind of go away. The charts on their website use the confirmed number which is still very high. My wife gets update from their leadership at the hospital every day. Cases and Hospitalizations are still very high. Lexington Hospital, not where she works, has been extremely overwhelmed for weeks now.
As of today Richland 2 has 130 positives and 1339 quarantined.
As of today Lexington 1 has 190 positives and 1476 quarantined.
A quick Google search to find their respective dashboards would have dismissed that facebook nonsense in about 2 minutes.
I wouldn’t call a post from a respected physician to be nonsense. Also not sure how well your Google is working. That’s Lexington1 581 to Richland2 131

My bad. That was Lexington 2.
I would think masks would have completely stonewalled Covid in Richland 2 but since that 8 day mark cases have quadrupled and quarantines are up over 1000%.
The good doctor should update his post.
Cloth masks worn improperly by kids isn't going to prevent Covid transmission.
*her post. Both school districts have been in school the same number of days. Both are from the same region of the state. This is about as apples to apples as you can get.
I’m not saying masks are 100% the reason why transmition at one is so much lower than the other, but to ignore that difference(over 400% more confirmed cases)….not sure what to call that.

Another 4685 confirmed positive. Fridays are usually the worst reporting day. Not quite as high as last Friday but still very high. First Friday in 4 weeks where the numbers were lower than the previous Friday. Let's hope it doesn't go higher and starts to retreat.
There are already a lot. 750,000 confirmed cases. Probably 1.5 million cases that were not known or reported.
I bet half the population in SC has contracted Covid over the last 18 months.
Dude... I too thought that the longer the virus hung around the more variants show up.
Little did we know. Fortunately, our resident TI expert on all things climate and covid related told us that the Pharmacy companies created the variants by mishandling the trials.
