Once @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can better understand how many new cases there truly are , where they are , and if we are indeed in a downward trend , she said .
How low will daily new cases need to be for restrictions to be relaxed ?

“ Then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is doing now — not totally resuming regular activity , but keeping a high level of regular activity while exercising caution , ” he said .

Dr. Annie Bukacek , MD , is a longtime Montana physician with over 30 years of experience practicing medicine .
Signing death certificates is a routine part of her job .
In a brief video presentation , Dr. Bukacek blows the whistle on the way the CDC is instructing physicians to exaggerate COVID 19 deaths on death certificates : Few people know how much individual power and leeway @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or medical examiner , signing the death certificate .
How do I know this ?
I ’ ve been filling out death certificates for over 30 years .
More often than we want to admit , we don ’ t know with certainty the cause of death when we fill out death certificates .
That is just life .
We are doctors , not God .
Autopsies are rarely performed and even when an autopsy is done the actual cause of death is not always clear .
Physicians make their best guesstimate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that listed cause of death… is entered into a vital records data bank to use for statistical analysis , which then gives out inaccurate numbers , as you can imagine .
Those inaccurate numbers then become accepted as factual information even though much of it is false .

They automatically overestimate the real death numbers , by their own admission .
Prior to COVID-19 , people were more likely to get an accurate cause of death written on their death certificate if they died @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when a patient dies in the hospital ?

The coronavirus pandemic may get American companies to do something the government has wanted for decades: return manufacturing to the United States.
Global manufacturing consulting firm Kearney released a report Tuesday that shows American manufacturing companies are leaving China en masse, spurred first by the trade war and solidified by China’s inability to contain COVID-19 after unleashing it on the global community.

Three decades ago, U.S. producers began manufacturing and sourcing in China for one reason: costs. The trade war brought a second dimension more fully into the equation―risk―as tariffs and the threat of disrupted China imports prompted companies to weigh surety of supply more fully alongside costs. COVID-19 brings a third dimension more fully into the mix, and arguably to the fore: resilience―the ability to foresee and adapt to unforeseen systemic shocks.
Indeed, the report indicated a “dramatic reversal” of a five-year trend in 2019 showing U.S. export its manufacturing. – READ MORE

President Donald Trump believes there is a drug that could treat those infected with the coronavirus and Attorney General William Barr is criticizing the media for their coverage of it.
Trump has continued to promote the use of an anti-malaria drug called hydroxychloroquine as a possible way to combat the coronavirus and doctors have been using it to treat patients without hard evidence that it works, as IJR previously reported.
Barr believes the media’s angle became unfair as soon as Trump began speaking out about it.
