A question, I think reasonable, that given most places do not do mass obligatory testing for CoVid, how do ‘they’ know about infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates, and re-infection rates ? The rates calculations all require a denominator, the same denominator. If no denominator worth a jab, then it might seem that ‘they’ are flying blind, and just making up the rates as ‘they’ deem fit base on other and possibly nonsensical criteria. Or, for example, in New York City are there testing every time a cluster is detected? Here in HK every ‘clusterette’ of even one case triggers the locking down of the entire building and mandatory testing, and if other cases detected, quarantine. Am not saying such protocol necessary / advisable, just noting it is how done over here. Wherever I enter (restaurants, clubs, shops, whatever) I need to scan a QR code into an app upon entry, and indicate “leaving now” when leaving, and should should a clusterette happen, bad josh happen. Awhile ago a joke went around town pitying the poor expat bank locked in place w/ presumably secretary Do not know why it is funny as if it only happens in the expat community

Sounds approximate to the temperatures around me the Pacific Northwest. Yesterday I came down from high up in the Umatilla National Forest into the Columbia basin and through the corridor of thousands of wind mills. At that time it was 118 degrees with no wind and at peak power demand. Fewer than 10 percent of those wind mills were turning. Thankfully all the hydro dams are still in place, online, and making up for failing green wind mills.
