haven't viewed the entire video but it is interesting at around the four minute mark he listed five theories for the decline in deaths world wide. i would suggest that there is a number six. 6. countries are not reporting accurately the number of infections or deaths for various reasons.

It is an interesting video, thanks for posting it. I agree with him that it will take a few weeks to see if these protests and the funeral service will result in an upswing in cases, not to mention all the reopenings that have begun over the past week or two. I will look for trials that include zinc some time in the next few days.

Coronavirus hospitalizations rise sharply in several states following Memorial Day By Samantha Pell, Candace Buckner and Jacqueline Dupree June 9, 2020 at 9:40 p.m. EDT full article at washingtonpost.com Please Note The Washington Post is providing this important information about the coronavirus for free.

As the number of new coronavirus cases continues to increase worldwide, and more than a dozen states and Puerto Rico are recording their highest averages of new cases since the pandemic began, hospitalizations in at least nine states have been on the rise since Memorial Day. In Texas, North and South Carolina, California, Oregon, Arkansas, Mississippi, Utah and Arizona, there are an increasing number of patients under supervised care since the holiday weekend because of coronavirus infections. The spikes generally began in the past couple weeks and in most states are trending higher. Data from states that are now reporting some of their highest seven-day averages of new cases is disproving the notion that the country is seeing such a spike in cases solely because of the continued increase in testing, according to data tracked by The Washington Post. Many of these states that have experienced an increase in cases have also had an increase in hospitalizations, with a handful of states also nearing bed capacity. Hospitalizations nationwide are difficult to track, with states reporting hospitalization numbers in varying ways, or not at all. Even states that do report hospitalization numbers may not have always received complete data from every hospital in the state at the time of their reports. 14 states and Puerto Rico hit highest seven-day average of new coronavirus infections Texas has reported 75,616 cases since the pandemic began, and in 10 of the past 15 days, the state’s seven-day average of new cases has increased. As of Tuesday, it has reported two consecutive days of record-breaking coronavirus hospitalizations. The state has seen a 36 percent increase in new cases since Memorial Day, with a record 2,056 current hospitalizations as of early Tuesday afternoon. It was up from a high of 1,935 hospitalizations on Monday. Texas was one of the first states to relax their stay-at-home order. Businesses started to open up in early May. According to the state’s health department, Texas has 28.14 percent of available hospital beds open, and 1,723 available intensive-care unit beds. In Arizona, 28,296 cases have been reported as of Tuesday, and in 13 of the past 15 days the state’s seven-day average of new cases has increased. There have been a record number of hospitalizations in the state over the past few days. As of Tuesday, Arizona reported 1,243 current hospitalizations, a 49 percent increase since Memorial Day, when there were 833 hospitalizations. continues at washingtonpost.com
