Alaska COVID-19 Count Memorial Day Monday May 25, 2020 - One New Case

It's Memorial Day 2020.  As I write this Worldometer reports that 99,684 have died in the US from Coronavirus.  (The exact number is impossible to know, of course, since reporting is not always accurate or up-to-date.  Plus medical experts believe there are many other deaths that are COVID related, but counted as something else.)

Will we have a COVID Memorial Day in the future?  Or do we reserve such days to glorify those who are sent off to kill people overseas?  Or people killed by terrorists as in 9/11?  Soldiers are the most sacred heroes in the United States (and in many other countries.)  They have great monuments and cemeteries and two national holidays.  No other 'occupation' is honored in such a massive way.  Soldiers who committed war crimes while in service, or physically abuse their families, or commit crimes, or take guns but not masks to COVID protests,  are at best still heroes and at worst 'the exceptions' that we excuse for their service.  If they're white.

But this glorification of war is no accident.  It's the way that militarists and the arms industry are able to keep a supply of bodies to send to war.  Soon, though, war may be automated and fewer and fewer actual bodies will need to be used.

We don't have a memorial day for those who died in the pandemic of 1928-19.  If we did, perhaps we'd have been better prepared for this pandemic.  If we had another president we would have been better prepared.  Here's Time Magazine's chart of COVID deaths compared to other deaths.

Alaska COVID-19 Count Sunday May 24, 2020 - Zero Increase In Everything But Tests Given

No new cases.  No new hospitalizations.  No new deaths.  No new recoveries.  Just 1156 new tests.
The last time Alaska reported a new Coronavirus death was May 6 and before that there hadn't been one since April 14.  Alaska is doing well.  We've had leaders who were pretty much united behind the health care experts and locked down early.  And while things are being loosened up now, we are testing at a much better than average (tests/population) rate and our positive/test is very low.

If we didn't have a tens of thousands of people coming to the state to work in the summer fishing industry, I'd say we were home safe for now.  Let's see how well the fishing industry will monitor its workforce.
