That's doesn't mean there isn't a problem, but it does show how these daily scorecards need a lot of scrutiny.
Good that it was caught but still not overly reassuring with the corrected number being that ICUs are already 76% full.

I was wondering about that I kept seeing 20% capacity left when the state re-opened didn't make any sense to me. The statement Banner Health put out their hospital system is almost at capacity and had a sharp increase in Covid-19 patients on ventilators is still the case.

Looks like the Casinos will operate just fine in the pandemic. Let's play count the masks on the non-employees in this video from Las Vegas.

Yeah, but you have to remember as recently as the middle of May, we were dead last in testing. Tests have ramped up--more tests more positive cases.

We’re still among the worst in the country on new daily infections so this isn’t reassuring

That's true in every state just about - testing is way up. But the percent positive is not like in AZ where it is running higher each day. And no other state has its largest hospital group calling a press conference to warn that they are running out of beds. We got a problem developing rapidly.

I think the rate is around 0% mask compliance. Vegas is a town where people like to gamble....With their life.

I live not far from a major hospital, and here is what I noticed, NO SIRENS, no ambulances hauling infected people in, no lines waiting to get into the emergency room, few cars in the parking lots, meaning no visitors, or staff, all this for something you have a less than 2% of dying from if you catch it.
