Not the fact this virus has become easier to spread. In fact testing will slow it because low symptom cases will isolate. Is common sense prevalent enough to admit this.

Secondly, testing does not make an increase in serious or deadly cases that require hospitalization. The portion of cases that increase in testing are very likely the most mild of cases. As we test more those test go to those with lesser symptoms. So stop it with the nonsense that the increase in gross number of cases is having a 1:1 impact on hospital resources. It’s not.

All these factors will slow the one number that matters - death rate as a percent of cases. The number of deaths is not and will not increase in the order of cases because the number of cases is going up because of testing again not some increased spread capability of the disease. A fatal flaw in the modeling that comes from this hoax will be the error of non mitigation models. You see as cases increase what do you think o creases - MITIGATION!!! So the gap between model case and real case gets worse.
