How high is their positive outcome rates (if they do 100 tests, how many turn out positive)?

Given the information found in the article I presented, what difference would that make?

Further, when the labs are found to be botching the tests, what difference would that make?

If you test only people which you suspect to be positive and
1) the positive rate is 0.9 then the difference between reported cases vs. positive tested would be only 10%
2) the positive rate is 0.01 then the new way of reporting is 100x off compared to if they would test all the people.

Edit: According to JJA's article, my guess would be that the new numbers would be approx. 5-10x higher if they reported all suspected cases as 'positive' without actually testing.

Here is part of the reason why the CDC is being bypassed.

None of the numbers being reported are real:
If the numbers being reported to the CDC aren't real, why would those very same numbers reported to HHS be any more reliable? ???

So the whole CDC is lying?  Oh dear.  Its a good thing Trump appoints the head of the CDC.

And really, do you think Trump, with his *made in a week* website is going to give you the REAL numbers?  The man can't even find 3 million fraudulant voted he swore existed in 2016.  He couldn't arrest Hillary Clinton on her OBVIOUS crimes.  Do you really think he can report numbers properly?

Hopefully good news. Many different vaccine trials happening and this one in particular the news article focuses on has provided an immune response in every volunteer.

The question will be however, how long does it last? Another question would be if you received the vaccine previously, does it lower your risk of adverse effects or mortality should you catch the corone 'in the wild' afterwards

All vaccines reduce the severity of the disease if you catch it.  That's why everyone should get their yearly flu shot.  Even if you get the flu, it will be less severe. I don't imagine this one will be any different, a faster immune response is always better.

Why do you call it 'the corone'?  It's Coronavirus or COVID.

Irony or karma - you decide.
(CNN)Former game show host Chuck Woolery's son has Covid-19, a spokesperson for Woolery said Thursday.

"Chuck's son is fine and asymptomatic," Mark Young, with Jekyll and Hyde Advertising, told CNN.
Woolery made news late Sunday when President Donald Trump retweeted Woolery saying everyone is lying about Covid-19.

"The most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19. Everyone is lying," Woolery said in that tweet.

Easier said than done. The biggest danger to America seems to the rat-bags that infest the place from the top down.
We haven't been there for decades but even then it was easy to see the extremes.
I was associating mainly with those in Engineering and Computer Science at UC Berkeley, a little at Stanford etc and visiting past students at Hewlett Packard and Tektronix - much smarter that I.

But these were all "just people". Even then, I could see the rat-bag side but now it seems that the rat-bags have taken over and look at the COVID-19 death toll!

"A positive test result shows you may have antibodies from an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. However, there is a chance a positive result means that you have antibodies from an infection with a virus from the same family of viruses (called coronaviruses), such as the one that causes the common cold."

Links regarding masks use.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4420971/#__ffn_sectitle
https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/5/4/e006577.full
"The rates of all infection outcomes were highest in the cloth mask arm, with the rate of ILI statistically significantly higher in the cloth mask arm (relative risk (RR)=13.00, 95% CI 1.69 to 100.07) compared with the medical mask arm. Cloth masks also had significantly higher rates of ILI compared with the control arm. An analysis by mask use showed ILI (RR=6.64, 95% CI 1.45 to 28.65) and laboratory-confirmed virus (RR=1.72, 95% CI 1.01 to 2.94) were significantly higher in the cloth masks group compared with the medical masks group. Penetration of cloth masks by particles was almost 97% and medical masks 44%."

https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2020/04/data-do-not-back-cloth-masks-limit-covid-19-experts-say
"Limited, indirect evidence from lab studies suggests that homemade fabric masks may capture large respiratory droplets, but there is no evidence they impede the transmission of aerosols implicated in the spread of COVID-19, according to a paper published yesterday by the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine."

https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/advice-on-the-use-of-masks-in-the-community-during-home-care-and-in-healthcare-settings-in-the-context-of-the-novel-coronavirus-(2019-ncov)-outbreak
"
Basically, the WHO boils down to this: Using a mask doesn't help one bit.

"Whether or not masks are used, compliance with hand hygiene, physical distancing and other infection prevention and control (IPC) measures are critical to prevent human-to-human transmission of COVID-19."

Surgical masks are worn by surgeons when in the operating room.

Unless you are claiming that surgical masks are available for the general public.

Going to a hardware store you can get even higher grade masks then what is used for surgeries lol.

Whatever prevents the spittle of your stank breath from reaching far and wide is always going to be helpful. Some things more than others.

A bandana is not the best but is still better than nothing at all. If you're healthy it could spare you from inhaling someone's infected spittle

And if that someone was also wearing a covering then all the lower risk

It lowers the risk. It does not totally eliminate it. You lower the risk even more if you only go out when essential. Maintaining a distance doesn't eliminate the risk but lowers it

All these steps work to reduce the r value. Get that to less than 1 and the virus dies out.

Don't give a fuck and well, look at America vs new Zealand or something.

I don't know about that.  Masking seems to have helped slow the spread in states like New York.
