So much hate against Trump that NPR will lie lie lie. All means necessary to elect Biden.

Positive Test DOES NOT equal a 'case'!! FAKE NEWS!!!

Seems we’ve been rounding the corners all the way back to square one.

Death rate is down though, right?

Congratulations stable genius who knows more than doctors!

Hospitalizations up too meaning more people are getting seriously sick.

Be Best

The only thing to fear is fear itself. Go out be safe and enjoy life.

Can you compare the confirmed cases with the amount of testing please?

Yet acording to CDC data COVID hospitalization rates this week were the lowest since March and testing levels are at record highs

now talk about Europe. they’ve also had rising cases even worse than US.

How many actually sick? Covid+ does not indicate how many sick! More exposed now, more recover, faster virus immunity develops!

VOTE TRUMP OUT

With Governors like Florida's and others who don't give a damn about spreading COVID-19 and deaths, am not surprised. They care more about themselves and their political careers. Failing miserably to protect human life...

Here come the COVIDtsunami

One main thing this article doesn’t mention is what the percentage of tests taken have come back positives. Is that rate on the rise? Or are there more positive tests because so many more people are getting tested? Are there a record number of people getting tested?

Why can't you people wear masks!! I'm living with an 82 year old mother ok!!

Like sheep going to slaughter,Americans have been hypnotized under the auspices of Greed and money 💰 verses their own health and safety this has been accelerated by immaturely opening up this country in hopes of Herd immunity, How’s this workin for ya all?

We are learning to live with it and fewer are dying as a result.

I miss the good ole days when I thought 30,000 new cases were a lot...

Cases don’t matter, you guys know this. The last paragraph of your article, should’ve been the headline ffs!

Stay in your basement till we have zero cases lemmings. An embarrassing episode in American bravery.

Only the smartest and safest people will survive this mess we have years to go.😷

weird trump is saying for 8 months its nothing and under control. 8 months of doing nothing exept blaming others for the virus. he failed so hard even 3rd world countries did better.

'We've rounded the corner, it's going away!'

“The number surpasses the previous record of more than 77,000 cases in mid-July.”

Bullshit.

tRump says it’s a hoax. Fake news

Can people PLEASE wear their masks This is not political. We’re still losing close to 1000 people a DAY! That number is about to increase. A mask is a minor inconvenience. Even if you believe masks don’t work, it’s a minor inconvenience!

This high rate of infections is on realDonaldTrump with his lack of capacity to understand basic science and incredibly inept national response to a pandemic. VoteScienceVoteBiden

Ahhh. Mega rallies in Illinois, Wisconsin & Florida...ponder that ...

60,000,000 flu cases 60,000,000+ h1n1 Dems lucked out

Imagine= president fired after deaths exceed all other advanced countries. Here's your trophy, NEXT!

NPR in full panic porn mode days before the election to help their preferred candidate. NPR won’t tell you that almost no one is dying anymore...

Open the country no one is dying!

Capitalist US state and ruling class sacrificing countless lives for profit as usual.

NPR keep pushing this because they want to keep the virus out front since Biden can't talk about anything else... but let's remember this about NPR

This administration's response is negligent manslaughter.

And how many of them had no symptoms? How many were so sick they were hospitalized? Give us real details that matter or stop reporting this stuff.

A function of testing

DefundNPR

If there's no one to help us, there's no reason to even read the news

We’re really rounding that corner 🙄

horrible

Great time to have an in person rally

...and still no plan?
