Since June 1 testing has gone up by 80%, but the number of positive results for the virus revealed by those tests have gone up by 215%; for the last two weeks the largest increase per capita has been in Alaska, Montana and North Dakota. So the well-known politician is dead wrong, as is his habit. Speaking of the dead, for the last 2 days more Americans have died from COVID-19 than any day since May 28, and summer is supposed to be the quiet time for virus pandemics. But hey .... at least we don't have the horrors of Hillary Clinton's email server to worry about.<br><br> John K Clark</font></div>
