I haven't posted about this here, but during the previous administration I came to realize that they weren't tracking the daily statistics of COVID-19 Cases/deaths very well. So I started. I've kept the stats for every day for over two years.
So please believe me, this isn't over - not by a long shot. We are AVERAGING over 50,000 cases a day and 500 deaths in the U.S. and 8 states don't report statistics anymore. Right now, Children's ICUs are FULL.
Mask up and get boosted. Please.
@Animeraider Really appreciate this update. Even in my city in Japan (not a huge city like Tokyo or Osaka) where 99% of people still mask up, distance and work at good air circulation has between 100-600 new cases everyday. I knew I would probably get it sometime but hoped to delay it as much as possible but got it probably when I visited Osaka. One or two of my students get it per week. So, yeah, even when people are taking precautions, you can get it.😥
@ExPatExp88 @Animeraider where are you at in Japan? I lived in Japan for 8 years and taught English in Zentsuji, on Shikoku. it was a lovely place!
@Iceman_Bob @Animeraider I live in Kyushu.
@ExPatExp88 @Animeraider been to Kumamoto. beautiful down there. I'm retired now and live in the Philippines
@Iceman_Bob @Animeraider Shinjuku Station is an absolute nightmare and I really understand your experience. If you don’t remember the exit number, you’ll be lost for a very long time. And God forbid you leave from the wrong exit!😱 Tokyo is a lot of fun if you’re young, not so much for when you get older.
@Animeraider @ExPatExp88 remembering the time I got lost in the Shinjuku subway/underground mall complex and spent hours trying too find the way out. that was early in my stay and I didn't speak or read japanese then
