Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

When I had the regular flu two years ago, this was my exact situation. High fever for 2 days. Low grade fever for 4 days. No coughing. No sore throat. Very little mucus. Strep throat was a living nightmare by comparison.
So obviously way too early to know anything, but upon waking up I feel much better.

I did sweat thru one shirt last night. But after that I slept fine.

still going to quarantine, with how fast it hit, I wouldn't be shocked if my symptoms came back as fast again today.
 
My tracking of actual daily new COVID-19 cases in U.S. and projections.
3/1 = 7
3/5 = 63
3/10 = 290
3/15 = 737
3/18 = 2848
3/19 = 4530
3/20 = 5594 (5522 median predicted)
3/21 = 4824 (6771 was the predicted median so hopefully we are seeing a rate fall)
3/22 = 9359 (9650 median predicted)
3/23 = 10168 (11,800 median predicted)

Coronavirus Update (Live): 392,440 Cases and 17,148 Deaths from COVID-19 Virus Outbreak - Worldometer

Predicted New Case Ranges ran on 3/19

3/24 17,000 - 20,800
3/25 23,600 - 28,800

Predicted new Case Ranges Today

3/24 11,500 - 14,100
3/25 15,800 - 19,300

The last few days have shown that we are actually bending the curve, even with the caveat of testing. Especially since a huge percentage of our testing is being conducted in a known hot spot in NYC. Where do we go from here? This is a very key point in our response.

If we can stay on the current glide path, we will be degrading the number of cases in two weeks.

Testing data is being kept by The COVID Tracking Project

As of now:
Positive
43,430
Negative
244,828
Pos + Neg
288,458

Stay safe out there.

Good work!
 

Fu** all the dem's having any comment. Seriously, what balls.

However, there needs to be a very open, and very black and white layout of where, and to whom, any money is going, and needs to be backed up by and validated by information succinctly to justify it. Discretion is not something we should allow any of these party's to use. Everything on the up and up, and legitimate, and worthy.

Extremely thankful that there isn't, but I honestly expected more positives in the test results.

In the worst hit provinces of Italy we got up to about 81 cases per 10,000 and hopefully that is falling now.

Coronavirus

The only U.S. comparison to Italy right now would be NYC boroughs.

Statewide per capita cases per 10,000 people

1) New York 11.9
2) New Jersey 3.2
3) Washington 2.9
4) Louisiana 2.5
5) DC 1.9
6) Michigan 1.33
7) Colorado 1.25
8) Vermont 1.2
9) Connecticut 1.16
10) Massachusetts 1.12

13) Tennessee 0.9

The next 10 days will be key in a lot of these state's more densely populated areas.

Missouri, South Dakota, Virginia, Texas, Kansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and West Virginia are the bottom 10 for now.
 
Search for keywords like IRS and Internal Revenue Service (1 hit), NASA, Indian, USPS, airlines, etc. None of that stuff is in there afaik.
Not saying it is perfect, but a much better starting point that that House atrocity.

Honestly, Mitch's seems more cryptic, chasing down the references would take a while take longer. It actually put me to sleep last night, and I didn't retain much of anything.
 
I honestly think the whole entire Congress is crap at this point and we need to get rid of all of them and then set 8 year limits.

I also think they should all be changed to 4 year like the president is cause it's just too much campaigning.


Sick of all of them.

Hey, I'm with you on that.
 
Screw that. No more than 10 years total in my opinion. No pension either. Not only that, but their staff must be replaced entirely as well after 10 years on the government payroll. The problem isn't always with idiots sitting in the seats, it's the staff that's been there 20, 30 and 40 years that moves from office to office. The Senators and Representatives aren't as smart as you give them credit for and are easily swayed by staffers that make a profession out of manipulating these whores into voting a certain way. They have to go as well or the cycle will never be broken.

You want a pension after 20 years of service to this nation? Join the military.

They don't get to vote for pay raises for themselves either. That goes on the general ballot every Presidential election year and let the American people decide how much they deserve to make.

These government positions were designed and meant to be ordinary citizens serving the people of the country. Governing for the people by the people, not making careers and fortunes from them. It's become a get rich career destination for politicians and a true crock of sh*t for the people
 
Do you know any statistics on faulty tests or false positives ?

The earliest tests, at least I believe that's what was being referenced, some doctor/scientist stated the false negatives were 30%.

Seems that would be hard to confirm, as being positive on a second test wouldn't necessarily mean the tested person was positive on the first.

30% doesn't sound good at all. On this massive of a scale a small percentage is to be expected, but I would have thought and hoped it to be 5% or less.
