    Also March 31- “The peak of case projection has moved from May to mid to late April”
    Total Ohio Hospitalizations for the period 3/15- current: 1,354. Welp. Testing or no, the hospitals aren’t “flooded”.
    Somethin’ ain’t adding up.
    So is she part of a big conspiracy? Incompetent? What do YOU think is going on here?

    Incompetent.

    The new peak date is today (April 8) which is about 3-4 weeks off from her original prediction of early May.

    Resources needed for COVID-19 patients on peak date:

    The model estimates the dates at which hospital resources like beds and ventilators will be most needed, which it says is tomorrow (April 8). The model says Ohio has 14,290 available beds, and as of tomorrow will be using only 1,372 beds.

    There are 1,238 ICU beds in Ohio, and as of tomorrow, only 262 will be needed. Only 223 invasive ventilators will be necessary tomorrow.

    544 projected deaths by August 4.

    Which model is that? The IMHE model is garbage.

    My understanding and I'm open to being corrected is that Ohio hasn't been forthcoming on who is generating their models or which one they're using. So what we have here is simply the numbers/data cited by Dewine and Acton in their never ending press conferences.

    Perhaps today is peak, but it seems that it will be later based on most other projections, as well as what we are seeing in the hospitals.

    I personally do not think they are incompetent, I believe DeWine and Acton have saved a LOT of lives along with demonstrating true leadership and decisiveness. The curve is flattening and we have people complaining about how this was not as deadly as we were told it was going to be without acting on it. Truly unbelievable.

    What model do you recommend?

    Modes are only as good as the quantity and quality of data available and used to support their construction. COVID-19 data are not robust due to the novelty of the disease. The first generation of models is then compared to and updated using actual data. Each iteration of the model is closer to reality.

    The quantity of data the IMHE used is as great as possible, and assumptions used are in line with published data and values. It was also just updated based on actual data from social distancing, which is having a profound effect than expected.

    No matter what precautions were taken, it was a no-win situation. If the models were correct, and we didn’t take the measures we did, we didn’t do enough. If the results fall short of predictions, and we took extreme measures, we did too much.

    Like everything in life, you can’t make everybody happy. I’m hopeful the models are wrong, and we can get back to life sooner rather than later.

    All of the mitigation put into place by her counseling and advise has obviously saved countless lives in Ohio. Yet you want her to get a model perfect in a completely novel scenario.

    C'mon man. Would you have rather her been wrong in the other direction?

    LOL. That model needs no refinement!

    I realized what a geek I am when the word “model” first conjures up images of data, statistics, graphs, and predictions.
