5 the novel virus has ravaged St. Louis' black community.

7 /\ Spot on! Hence the 'social distancing' (frequently ignored) admonition.

There have been some absolutely amazing intelligence community computer tools developed over the past 12-15 years that have taken the art of terrorism social networking and analysis to an entirely new level.

While for obvious reasons not frequently discussed, I am relatively certain these analytic tools are being employed in the CV fight.

10 If you die in a car crash and test positive for CV, it wasn't the crash that killed you.

Below's a quick data grab. Makes me wonder if they were Medicaid participants (poorly run facilities), and if the spike of deaths in inner cities is a factor of state run/city run health care programs.

Female, 50-59, with underlying medical conditions

Female, 80-89, with underlying medical conditions

Female, 60-69, with underlying medical conditions

Male, 80-89, with underlying medical conditions

If you are keeping count: CV African deaths from the continent are less than 800.

12 The Black communities largely ignored the requests to stay at home. They held conferences in Sun Valley, and infected the city, as one of many examples. Its not a racial issues, they decided to ignore it and Darwin took over.

13 If I were black, I'd want someone to look into exactly why this is happening. But under current political circumstances this can't happen. Catch 22.

14 The author of this article apparently does not distinguish between St. Louis City and St. Louis County. They are two separate entities.
