The curve will not peak until the testing has peaked. If you test all 360 million people RIGHT NOW, that will be the peak of the virus. Case closed.
Our early testing was insufficient, but one of the doctors said yesterday that we've tested more people in the last 8 days than South Korea has tested in the past 8 weeks. So hopefully we're finally starting to get some decent testing data to work with.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ has the plots. I reckon the weather may be putting a dent in things. Apparently CDC is refusing testing to anyone who's not showing some gravity so that's one way the feds could be spiking the true numbers, or they're short on tests.
Yeah, that was Dr. Brix who said that during the Fox town hall yesterday. Dunno' which ass she pulled that number out of.
Seriously? You don’t actually believe the China numbers. They are multiples of what they admit and that’s on top of killing anyone who disobeyed their total lockdown.
South Korea has tested far more people for the coronavirus than any other country, enabling it to isolate and treat many people soon after they are infected. The country has conducted over 300,000 tests, for a per-capita rate more than 40 times that of the United States. Last synced with our spreadsheet: 3/25 20:05 ET Positive 64,180 Negative 357,405 Pending Hospitalized 6,136 Death 900 Total test results 472,820 Positive + Negative US Totals
While you are being ummm serious care to share numbers how many China has killed for disobeying lockdown?
The only problem with that graph is how it insidiously fails to plot the US trajectory forward to the rest of the world. Secondly, you do realize the US is on top of that chart, not as a good thing, but as a bad thing. All other countries there seem to have flattened their curve while the slope of the US curve is shows no sign of flattening. Happy trading mr. umpteenth Russian troll bot.
There's virtually no evidence that warm weather kills the virus. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/will-coronavirus-go-away-with-warm-weather/ https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/faq.html The likely reason this happens is because there's better air flow (HVAC) and people spread out more due to the heat. The heat itself doesn't kill them. The "heat kills corona" meme was started by yet another one of Trumps addlepated displays of mindless self promotion he calls press meetings. https://covidtracking.com/us-daily/ These numbers show no brakes on this train. 23% increase in positive cases and ~30% increase in deaths just today. Im not sure where all these propagandists are getting the "peak has been found" shit from. The pain has just started. The effects of self isolation won't even be seen on the graph until late April. Or never if Trump decides to sacrifice 1MM Americans for the stock market.
I never said warm weather kills the virus, being that virus aren't alive and all, in any case, if you don't think there's evidence weather "puts a dent in things": https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3551767 https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/22/health/warm-weather-coronavirus.html https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3556998 https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3550308 https://poseidon01.ssrn.com/deliver...7105114002019025114003125117127122026&EXT=pdf
