CASES BY CITY:
PRIOR DAY TOTALS:
How do you get the city counts? ex Concord yesterday 1597, today 1612 and increase of 15. Yet you show an increase of 14?????
Others have explained this more fully, but I think this is what is going on: the numbers that are added on a given day are not necessarily new test results from that day – they may be results from the day before, or the day before that. So the county backdates those numbers to the appropriate day after the fact.
Everything is a snapshot in time. The County actually updates their data continuously throughout the day. So what they show today in their table is the new data. Or it could be that a correction was made to the data after reported yesterday.
In any event a hell of a lot of cases in Concord vs. other places.
Low income areas of society are to blame for the state to lockdown. Look at the numbers! Richmond, Concord, San Pablo. There’s a correlation between socioeconomic status and Covid 19.
So true! It’s almost as if they can’t afford to stay home with their kids and have to risk sending them to daycare, don’t have the opportunity to safely work from home, or can’t get quality PPE. Maybe they should make more money so that they can afford to live fewer people to a household or see if Google is hiring so they don’t have to work jobs that put them in contact with the public. Good thing the more wealthy amongst us are putting 150% effort into stopping this pandemic to offset the drag of the low income. If it weren’t for brave, well-off men like Donald Trump and Herman Cain advocating science and protective measures early due to foresight and readiness we’d be ranked toward the bottom in the world in terms of response and death.
I have never commented on anything online ever before, because it’s never worth it. I made an exception today because I’m tired of nasty people saying and doing nasty things when everyone is hurting so badly. This year has been a parade of nightmares around the world and you want to blame poor people for you not being able to get a haircut. Let’s pretend I haven’t seen maskless groups on the golf courses, or read stories about wealthy socialites throwing covid parties with predicable outcomes. Even if the middle and upper class were the saviors in all this…you still never bothered to feel any empathy for what it must be like to try and survive the health and economic impact of Covid when you’re already struggling. Or to ponder a way to help. Maybe Covid isn’t the most dangerous virus in the long term…maybe thinking like yours is.
Well since these low income areas (as you call them) need to work! what is wrong with people here.
That’s right! We wouldn’t be in this predicament if those low-income slobs didn’t exist. We need to kill anyone that makes less than $35,000 a year! And anyone over 65! Problem solved!
I think it’s from all the blunt passing
