Covid-19

To actually get back to what this thread started out as. What happened to the Burton kid from WSU ? I thought he was supposed to decide on 4/9. Any news on any other recruits ?

Lol. Wrong thread. But it’s Monday I believe.

I got a letter from my HOA today telling new I had to cut my lawn, so I did. But I looked at after it was done, and it wasn’t even long! Those assholes better not tell me that again.

Ha exactly.

And in Today's "Let's do a Reality Check" Report for Ohio:

Today's Model Projection of new Cases per Day: 1,600
Today's Actual new reported Cases: 372 Including 21 “assumed”(Gross numbers less than yesterday & 2 days ago) Net 352
Highest Daily Total Increase in cases since report began on 3/9: 427 on 4/4/20. (Only 2 other days over 400- 4/6 with 407 and 4/3 with 410)
Actual TOTAL Hospitalizations: 1,859 (up only 104 from yesterday) since reporting began a month ago
Actual TOTAL ICU admits: 572 since reporting began a month ago. (up only 24 from yesterday
Total Ohio Hospital Beds: 34,000
Total Ohio ICU Beds: 2,500

The models continue to be wrong, the hospitalizations continue to drop, and the deaths continue to drop whether there is "underreportting" "undertesting" or not.
Meanwhile, Ohioans are continually being told to stop doing everything.

SHOUTS THE MODELS ARE FAULTY!!

"Widespread knowledge and common sense".


Wow. So factual. If there are so many damn cases, how come these people aren't flooding the hospitals? Where is the overrun?
I really don't give a damn about the "number of cases per day" EXCEPT that the original model of 20,000 per day, then 10,000 per day is what has been publicly used to justify shutting the whole damn state down. No one is overrunning the hospitals and no where are the ICU's under stress in this state. And we have either passed or approaching the alleged peak date. It's becoming madness, and the justification for it is rapidly wearing thin.

You said “justify” my statement, which I did. The REALITY is that every case is not reported, just like every other disease in the history of time. How is that difficult? We get that you don’t like the models, but it seems like you are just yelling that the models are faulty because you need to complain about something. There are mounds of evidence that early distancing stops this in its tracks, which is exactly what happened in Ohio. Check out Detroit right now for further proof of what not to do. Nobody is clamoring for shutting everything down through the summer here. I think most people would agree with bleedXblue that early May would be a nice target to roll out some people gradually to the community. I’m sure you will find error in how they do that too...

Well I'd certainly hope not.

Is it possible that this thing was around longer than we even know? Last year I got sick, around May, and thought for sure it was the FLU. Fever, cough, congestion, body aches and extreme exhaustion for about 10 days. Got tested for the FLU and it was negative. Then a ton of people I work with had pretty much the same thing, everyone was getting sick but no one had the FLU. I also saw these two cases late last year where two young, supposedly healthy guys died from what they are saying is Pneumonia that started out like FLU like symptoms. Maybe it was just pneumonia for these two, but makes me wonder.

You justified nothing and any scientist would say that is merely opinion.
I have displayed actual numbers vs what the models projected. I don’t like the models because they have been proven to be wildly inaccurate, and no one seems to want to question that fact. No one in the media on those press conferences ever seems to want to challenge or question the proclamation from on high, meanwhile the average working Joe is being destroyed.

“Widespread Knowledge” based on what? “Common Sense” based on what? Your opinion. That’s it?
Dispute the actual factual numbers I’ve cited and answer where are the projected Hospitalizations. Are they “underreported” too?
That is what really counts here, not your opinion of reports.

If you believe the 6,250 cases reported represents the exact number of cases in Ohio I think there is no sense in discussing this. *Insert Mugatu Crazy Pills gif*
