These are numbers from Colorado up till I believe yesterday or the day before last from a website I subscribe to..

People saying this is hitting young people hard is stupid. It is brutal on the aged and sickly...but come on man..

The reported cases are distributed among age groups below:
  • 0-9: .99% (90; 9 hospitalized)
  • 10-19: 2.13% (193; 9 hospitalized)
  • 20-29: 13.67% (1,234; 64 hospitalized; 3 deaths)
  • 30-39: 16.22% (1,465; 142 hospitalized, 2 deaths)
  • 40-49: 16.51% (1,480; 200 hospitalized, 14 deaths)
  • 50-59: 18.16% (1,622; 319 hospitalized, 21 deaths)
  • 60-69: 14.41% (1,250; 335 hospitalized, 54 deaths)
  • 70-79: 9.64% (772; 269 hospitalized, 100 deaths)
  • 80+: 7.90% (518; 175 hospitalized, 197 deaths)
  • Unknown: 0.35%

Skeptical on that considering I’ve watched cashiers take their gloves off, touch stuff, and then put them back on multiple times.

The masks are suspect in terms of effectiveness.

And people still moving around in various stores. Yeah I suppose it’s slowed it down but this thing is going to keep spreading. Every single person will get it. Most wont even notice. It’s lame to have cost 22 million people their jobs over this so we can save the pampered generation from dying a couple years early

Lol at you calling another generation pampered.

With most statistics, the Devil is in the details. They have tested 3300 people and are claiming that 2.5% to 4.2% were positive, anywhere from 83 to 139. They are then extrapolating that to the entire county and comparing that to confirmed cases. While I'll call that very encouraging, that is a long way from compelling evidence.

A few questions come mind:
Why the range of positive, were they positive or not?
What is the sensitivity and specificity of the test?
How random was the sample? Was there any methodology to selecting those tested?
Assuming the test is accurate, how do results from Santa Clara county apply to the rest of the country?

The mortality of the 1918 flu varied greatly by region, probably due to nutritional differences...0.7% Texas vs 3.14% Connecticut. Sunshine, perhaps? This test was done in LA, which is pretty far south and quite sunny. The results there may not translate well to other areas.

That does give some insight into relative risk by region though. It might turn out that some areas aren't at as great a risk of crisis, and this could make it easier to tailor the restart/future mitigation by regional risk. I'd be very much for that.

They ran with limited data to shut it down and that was ok.

why do you say there will be no vaccine?

several companies have said its a straight forward virus, similar to SARS. Pitt said they were close to a SARS vaccine so they doubled down on this one.

Coronavirus clue? Most cases aboard U.S. aircraft carrier are symptom-free
If you’re young and healthy you’re fine. Should’ve told at risk groups (old people, morbidly obese people, and those with respiratory problems) to stay home. Let everyone live their lives
Click to expand...
well “young and healthy” is very subjective and really going to differ on who declares what healthy.

But none the less, you let all the young and healthy people go out then they bring it back to the others that aren’t so capable of beating it. Or what happens if you kept schools and daycares open, we all know how quickly sicknesses spread through them.

It doesn’t surprise me coming from clay Travis But i genuinely don’t get the whole fiscal freak out people. Is a few paychecks or even your current house, job, car etc more important than your health and your friends/family.

Hahahaha. Yeah because it's more efficient to do work there than an office like all of the other employees in the company

My wife was a land man with Mobil in Alberta, and her job was to negotiate oil and gas deals with other companies. She often golfed as part of her job.

I was jealous a lot.

I think the more we learn that we are going to see that far more people had this thing than we realized which drives the death rate down by a large amount
Click to expand...

Does it matter though? No matter what the rate ends up being it’s proven to be very deadly to elderly people and ones that have other health issues so why risk it? I saw the tweet Thread your quoting from clay and it’s like he’s on this gotcha witch hunt now Bc he’s already showed his ass once so he’s all “BOOM! See i told you, not as deadly as the flu!” Like the flu isn’t a serious thing that most of us get vaccinated for every year.

No we didn’t. The reason we’re not in a really horrible spot is because we overreacted. There’s too munch death around the world to risk it, especially amongst our youth and elderly.

3 out of 14000 in NY 0-17 died. ALL 3 had underlying issues. Also, intubation has been found in several cases hastening death. All these deaths in areas where mitigation was practiced well according to experts. Nashville doing great. Other counties in southeast Tennessee doing bad. But they have low case and death rates and few in the hospital. Shutting down NY and Louisiana probably a good idea. The entire freaking country. Heck no. DATA does not support.

A lot of "young and healthy" people have underlying issues they know nothing about. Most find out once they get older and go to the doctor for checkups.

Unless you are a high level athlete, in the military or a hypochondriac with good insurance then you really never know.

Look at those numbers..351 of the 391 deaths were over 60, and 372 of the 391 if you back it up to 50. It is like somebody designed it to wipe out elderly or immunocompromised people.

If it was not for that, this really would be no worse than the flu.
