Well, what I’m about to relate feels totally freaky. I’m sure it is just statistics, but to my non mathematical brain this is mind-boggling:
A friend told me to type any three numbers followed by the words “new cases” in the google search bar. So, for example I might type: “582 new cases”. Keep trying any three-digit number. There’s always plenty of news stories with that specific number of new cases of coronavirus somewhere. No matter what number you choose.
However—ATTENTION! I do NOT believe in conspiracy theories, so let’s not go there. I just thought it was interesting.
I told my husband this, but he only shrugged. He remembers one of his professors once said in a class that often there is at least two who will share the same birthday, that it’s just the odds. That fact would amaze me, too! But, like I said, I do not have a good mathematical mind. LOL
