I didn't read that - and if it's true I am dubious as to whether the report should have gone live yet. |
It wasn't exactly released, more medical journalists picking up on the alerts sent out to doctors to keep an eye out for cases. Then the papers got wind and copied the earlier report. |  |

The headline and first mini paragraph are totally at odds if the reality is about 20 people.
The mainstream media in this country really are complete gutter scum. Feeding on people's concerns to whip up more hysteria and fear. I thoroughly detest them all.
Are they so bad in other countries? I'll be leaving the UK as soon as is realistically possible for myself to do so. |  |

I thought i'd link this interesting article in this thread, i hope it's ok to do so.
Out of 2,300 prisoners in a prison in Ohio 2,028 tested positive.
"They started with the Marion Correctional Institution, which houses 2,500 prisoners in north central Ohio, many of them older with pre-existing health conditions. After testing 2,300 inmates for the coronavirus, they were shocked. Of the 2,028 who tested positive, close to 95% had no symptoms."
"As mass coronavirus testing expands in prisons, large numbers of inmates are showing no symptoms. In four state prison systems – Arkansas, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia – 96% of 3,277 inmates who tested positive for the coronavirus were asymptomatic, according to interviews with officials and records reviewed by Reuters. That’s out of 4,693 tests that included results on symptoms."
“It adds to the understanding that we have a severe undercount of cases in the U.S.,” said Dr. Leana Wen, adjunct associate professor of emergency medicine at George Washington University, said of the Reuters findings. “The case count is likely much, much higher than we currently know because of the lack of testing and surveillance.”

You do realise that we all have corona virus in our systems all year round at various points.
Unless the article states covid-19 then it means nothing. |  |

This is when I would start to panic.
Worrying - and to be honest something that was always in the back of my mind |
Just in time to scare all the parents into pushing to the front of the queue for any rushed through untested vaccine for their little ones. | |

Ok a different number with 1,828 COVID-19 positives from 2,500 which is over the 70 percent mark.
"Marion Correctional Institution Now Has More COVID-19 Cases Than Any Single County in Ohio"
"As of Sunday, a single prison in central Ohio has more confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 than any county in the state. With a shocking 1,828 positive tests among its inmate population of 2,500, the Marion Correctional Institution has more cases than Cuyahoga County (Cleveland), Franklin County (Columbus) and Hamilton County (Cincinnati)."
