Not even 8AM and world-o-meters has Iowa's daily coronavirus cases over 2000

Jesus what a spike - with the rest of the day yet to go.

It may be a typo, but I am guessing it is not. That would be like California posting @ 30,000 cases.

Welcome back to school, kids. And remember high school football starts tonight!

When I look daily at numbers from places like Texas, Florida and Georgia you know those numbers are fake. Iowa was caught cheating a couple weeks ago by a nurse. Since then our numbers have risen dramatically. They now appear to reflect reality.
