Warning Storm Cristobal

The central Midwest including Michigan needs to pay attention to the storm named Cristobal in the Gulf of Mexico. The states inundated with rain a week or so ago will be facing another soaking in the coming days.

Ask the National Weather Service for anticipated rainfall as it moved north. Low lying areas may have to be sandbagged to prevent more flooding. Evacuations May be necessary.

6,663,304 Confired Cases

392,802 Deaths

The Americas still have the highest of all statistics and Africa the lowest.















In United States of America, from Jan 20 to 4:43pm CEST, 6 June 2020, there have been 1,857,872 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 107,911 deaths.

The Americas are carrying 47 percent of all cases in the world. Nearly half of the COVID-19 cases are in North and South America.

Of the confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the Americas the USA is responsible for 59 percent of those cases. Nearly 60 percent.

The United States of America currently has 28 percent of all COVID-19 cases and 27 percent of the deaths globally.

THIS IS A BREAK FROM PAST TRENDS. 

The USA was always had a far lower number of deaths compared to confirmed cases than the global numbers of deaths, but, this changes it. The USA now has over a quarter of the global deaths from infections from the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

This new level of deaths means that 6 percent of those that contract the virus will die from it. This means out of every 100,000 cases in the USA 6000 will die.

Below are the statistics (click here) from the Flu Season of 2019-2020 in the USA per the CDC. The number of illnesses is far higher than COVID-19. However, the deaths are lower. In using the lower numbers of cases and deaths the percent of deaths from the flu is 0.06 percent. That is 24,000 deaths out of 39,000,000 illnesses.

COVID-19 deaths in the USA is 100 times worse than the flu.
