You should learn how to read . Let me help you out smart guy... “ I LIVE IN NORFOLK”

Purple Tiger has demonstrated a curious inability to grasp statistics related to population (must not have been part of the Hogwarts - Middle Tennessee curriculum) on numerous occasions, so this will fall on deaf ears.

Just the opposite. It is easy to downplay covid if your city's lost 9 people to it. Those of us who live in areas that have been much harder hit understand the bad news is not hysteria but reality. Perspective is everything here.

Scott County has 13 cases total. Should they be doing what Davidson is doing?

These theaters are more than justified in making whatever business decisions they so choose, but I believe that closing until January 3rd at the earliest is a very dumb choice and not one that many of the smaller theaters will successfully weather.

He lied about his sister firing nurses for using improper English and talks down to anyone that he deems as having an uneducated opinion different than his .

Anyone who compares the Norfolk area with Chattanooga has obviously not been to the east coast of Virginia. Not a well traveled person to say the least. It might be a good idea to get out of Swanee every now and then. Go see the rest of the world

You have no clue about the tidewater area, she says Norfolk but in that area there is Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Suffolk, Portsmouth and Chesapeake. Do some research before mouthing off

I am using data for Norfolk city and Norfolk County. Those other areas are in different counties.

I never said they should. But a lot of people on here compare the virus in East to Middle and West TN, which is illogical. And don't crap on people from Davidson who take the virus more seriously.

Its the Tidewater area, they're all right there and primarily use the hospital in Norfolk.

It's one intertwined region. Almost everyone counts it like a single entity (even the cities across the water)

Actually, I didn't. There are 694000 people in Davidson County and 235000 in Norfolk County. Yet, Nashville, which is three times larger than Norfolk, has 12 times the amount of covid cases and deaths. Looks like my stats and my grip on them are a-ok.

I know that, but Virginia lists cases by counties, which is how I got my numbers.

Then redo your numbers if you're interested in them being accurate

I saw a post from TennTraditions over the weekend saying only 25% of the patients in Houston hospitals are Covid related.

Yeah that was from me - but it was ICU patients. And that statistic was technically only for the Texas Medical Center hospitals around Houston. Not sure about others.

Actually, I didn't. There are 694000 people in Davidson County and 235000 in Norfolk County. Yet, Nashville, which is two thirds larger than Norfolk but has 12 times the amount of covid cases and deaths. Looks like my stats and my grip on them are a-ok.

You live in the 91st most populous city in the US, a town that is smaller than Chattanooga, TN. I think Clarksville, TN may be bigger, too.

List of United States cities by population - Wikipedia

You quoted Norfolk as the "91st largest" city in the United States, which aligns pretty well with this list, but said that Chattanooga (140) and Clarksville (161) are larger.

Why you'd make those statements after obviously looking at a list is beyond me, but you're generally pretty error prone (and wonderfully stubborn about it, too!) so doing so doesn't exactly surprise me.

Thanks for clarifying.

Chattanooga Metro is 547,000 and Clarksville Metro is over 300,000. Nothing sloppy or error prone in my previous post.

Those were the county numbers for Norfolk. Stop bothering me with stupid questions. You obviously have no reading comprehension.

You specifically called out Norfolk as 91, clearly referencing a list of cities by population size, and now want to shift the goal posts by discussing the size of the Chattanooga and Clarksville metropolitan areas.

Which, hey, is cool; as an aside, have you seen the size of Norfolk's metropolitan area?

Again, you are very bad with statistics and numbers.

Again, VA lists COVID cases by counties. By the way, that is the third time I have said that. Tell us the counties in Norfolk's MSA and count the cases if you want to prove something.

How am I not making sense of numbers? Try putting your money where your mouth is.

I know why I can’t say certain things but that doesn’t mean it’s not true .

Again, I am pointing out that you are wrong about the size of Chattanooga and Clarksville relative to Norfolk. Chattanooga and Clarksville are, as everyone has mentioned despite your instance to the contrary, not larger than Norfolk.
