As States reopen for business, and as increasing numbers of businesses reopen and customers patronize them against State government encouragements or outright diktats to the contrary, Progressive-Democratic Party Presidential candidate Joe Biden is nattering on that President Donald Trump’s policies are undermining the core pillars of our economic strength. In the meantime, the NLMSM is focusing ghoulishly on body counts and not mentioning any other relevant information.
The following table looks at some data for three States mentioned in one Wall Street Journal article, another State mentioned in a different WSJ article, and two States mentioned by Fox News.
| State | Wuhan Virus Deaths | Wuhan Virus Recoveries | Ratio of Wuhan Virus Recoveries to Deaths |
| Illinois | 3,406 | Not Reported | |
| California | 2,719 | Not Reported | |
| New York | 26,682 | 58,006 | 2.17 |
| Georgia | 1,441 | Not Reported | |
| Michigan | 4,555 | 22,686 | 4.98 |
| Texas | 1,095 | 21,022 | 19.20 |
Wuhan Virus data are from Johns Hopkins University’s CSSE Dashboard and were current as of 11 May.
Carefully ignored by Biden in his meandering and by the NLMSM in their panic-mongering are those recovery rates and ratios. Check the CSSE data—all of the States reporting recovery rates are reporting recovery-to-death ratios of at least 2:1, and generally much larger.
Progressive-Democrats in charge of their States, despite these favorable trends though, want to keep their States locked down and having no economic activity—all in the claimed name of safety. Of course the longer States stay shut down, the deeper will be the economic recession we’re facing at the end of summer and into the November elections.
Note, though, that wanting a recession explicitly as a means of defeating President Donald Trump in this election has been a key part of the Progressive-Democrats’ playbook for two years.
Be very heads up this November.
