[QUOTE=Slowhand50;4912245]Not sure how your radio source came up with that conclusion.
This time last year, Memphis had about 102 murders. This year the city had reported 154 as of the beginning of August. The record of 228 homicides in a year was set in 2016.
So far in the pandemic, 286 people have died in Shelby County, as of Aug. 4. And we still have five months to go.[/QUOTE]If I'm not mistaken what was reported on the radio there were more homicide deaths in July then COVID deaths in July.
I may be wrong but that's the way I heard it on the radio.
AM600.
