It's basically a characteristic of respiratory illnesses that they are less severe or fade away during summer months. Most of the medical experts on TV have been saying they expect the same with COVID-19, and think that is why it is slower in the southern hemisphere and tropical zones right now. They expect it to pick up as they head into fall and winter and lessen as we move into summer.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick Douglas

Donald Trump has appointed Michael Caputo into the HHS. Caputo's previous accomplishments include polishing the image of Mr. Putin for the American audience.
Somehow the appointment seems to sum up Trump's policy strategies, rely on media savvy operatives instead of professional policy wonks.
Who needs science when you can provide spin? (another reason why science does not matter!)

As I've said many times, Mr. Trump has two mantras he lives by:
1) The buck stops there, but any credit comes here.
2) If Obama touched it in any way, it has to go.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
