MSNBC....No current death count from COVID-19

[ProudMNDemocrat]

I have had MSNBC on since 8 am CDT. There have been no updates on the number of deaths. What gives? No mention by Anchor hosts as well.

Is the CDC and Johns Hopkins been ordered NOT to release that data?

I heard that over 94,000 have lost their lives.

1. Not sure why they don't have it listed.

But you’re right about crossing 94,000. This is the source I use.

2. According to Worldometer:

Coronavirus Cases:
1,597,130
Deaths:
95,118

The site mentioned above by bearsfootball, 1point3acres, is a great site too.

3. It will be 100, 000 very soon

They can't hide all those bodies

4. I'm thinking we hit in on Memorial Day.

Maybe, maybe not... or maybe sooner.

8. IHME projects 100,000 by May 23-24

Other models are similar, most predict 100,000 within a week.

125,000 by mid June
150,000 by mid July

13. Pelosi and Schumer have asked Trump to lower that nation's flags to half staff when we hit 100,000

I don't think that's the reason behind the delay to the update, I'm just noting the juxtaposition of the two events. For now. I know the Trump administration never misses a chance to be petty and spiteful, stubborn and snide. So the two events could be related.

14. I wish one of the hacks had asked him about this

I want to hear his answer because I dare him to say no.

5. You may be right. That Johns Hopkins site shows 93,554 (about).

I just went and checked right this minute, after reading your post. I have noticed the Johns Hopkins website had a lower count than some others for a few days. I bookmarked this site from Democratic Underground on March 22nd, and I have been checking it every day. I am going to bookmark this one now, so I can get to the Worldometer. This discrepancy is unsettling, although of course there may be a perfectly valid explanation.

6. The count was over that last night on the 11th Hour.

93,790 when Brian Williams went on air.

7. They're talking about Brazil's exploding death rate this morning, and a possible entry ban into the

US from that country. Apparently, Bolsonaro's Trump-inspired "it's a hoax...no need to do anything" bullshit isn't turning out so well. Once again, ETTD.

10. Most of Brazil is in the late Fall and about the to enter the Winter.

I think the loss of UV light may be turning a bad situation even worse.

That makes me worry that the second wave here in the U.S. is going to be really bad when it arrives in the later part of this year.

9. K&R, something similar happened when the US hit 50,000 deaths. It took a while for M$M to report it

[Thomas Hurt]

11. I thought that this many dead would be enough to get rid of the Pig...

but it may take ambulances driving down the streets blaring "bring out your dead" over PAs to do it.

12. Weird!

It's still showing on WaPo and NYT and on the Coronavirus tracker I found. The numbers are bogus because Florida's is 2000 less than yesterday, but they are being shown elsewhere.
