2019-nCoV Coronovirus (COVID-19]

660 cases in South Carolina now.
There are also 1500 backlogged tests.
And probably a ton of people who are displaying symptoms but cant get a test ordered

 

Then there are stories like this, he says he has no underlying conditions, but he was taking his own blood pressure, and never needed to go to the hospital

Are they just trying to get their face on the news?


Man with coronavirus warns people to look out for 'delay' symptom as first sign

 

My country anyway, the media had a unified front up until a couple days ago, when I started to finally see more articles questioning the reaction and who is to blame

 

"U.S. coronavirus deaths could reach 200,000, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci said, calling the estimate “fluid.”

Spain’s Deadliest Day; French Firms Apply for Aid: Virus Update


Lolz "fluid"

So basically if it doesnt happen this year, he can say later, oh I meant over several years until we get a vaccine

Translation: he has no more idea than anyone else that can read a logarithmic scale

A slightly better idea i think. You really seem to enjoy stating repeatedly they don't know how it will go exactly. What's so amusing about it

 

Some other things to put this into context. In 2018, 2,813,503 people died in the US. So around 7671 people a day.

FastStats

So yesterday at 500 deaths, that means the daily death rate is up 6.5%.

 

Now am I saying it's time to panic, kiss your old goodbye and start using charmin for currency?

Yes I am.

 

Just the local gentry (i.e. every medical expert in the region ) who know far more about this virus than you'll ever hope to know.

Just one month ago, February 26, 2020 it was your leader who said "we have 15 cases, and soon there will be none" ...lol...

 

Here is a cool article about ventilators. I know we talked a little about the shortage of them and how government knew about the shortage. To follow up, I guess like 13 years ago they tried to introduce some number of ventilators and failed (somehow?) to get them into hospitals.

The U.S. Tried to Build a New Fleet of Ventilators. The Mission Failed.

Also, apparently there is a stockpile of ventilators, among other things...

Desperate for medical equipment, states encounter a beleaguered national stockpile

 

Before the little red hat people come in here and say..."He never said that" The actual quote is... “the 15, within a couple of days, is going to be down to close to zero. That’s a pretty good job we’ve done. "


Now... They will still come in here saying "He never said that" but at least it will be a direct quote....

 

Where your face masks are actually being made

This is the level of sanitation at the foreign factory conditions of where our new face masks are coming from

:hurl:

Disgusting. Nothing sterile about this at all

Bring the manufacturing back home!

 

Lolz

 

Seriously, put your anti Trump crap in the Sad little men thread. Or there is also a Trump Covid thread only 4 people care about

Yeah we get it, he did the same thing everyone else did, didnt think it was a thing until it was a thing. Yawn

 

Yes I will constantly repeat stuff like that to highlight there is no such thing as an expert

Im sure in his role he makes a lot of important decisions as to what goes where, he has a long history of HIV research. But he is not a statistician is he

Whats the use of saying 200,000 and leaving it open ended like that? Ok, over what time period? And where are these deaths going to be? If he cant do better than that, then how is he an expert?

 

They're experts in their particular fields. Just because no one knows exactly how it will go doesn't mean such experts aren't experts. You acting like you know it at least as well and shitting on experts and lockdown measures the way you did frankly makes you look like the idiot. Or just a dubious shit stirrer. You can't help yourself going for the sensationalist approach. I regard this covid thread at least as much as 'the sad little man' thread...

 

Ok, show me then, who said what?

You said projections say we will reach that peak in three weeks? How many deaths a day is that peak.

Show me so we can tag it now and so how accurate they are in both 3 weeks and 6 weeks, and Next February

Also so you dont keep moving the goal posts

 

Im afraid it does mean exactly that.

If some statistician on youtube predicts far more accurately than either Fauci or what seemed to be the entire Imperial College of London, then yes, the latter two arentt experts on statistics

 

Did you watch the video ? .. The hospital looks like normal operations this time the year. The cold food trailer truck to handle bodies.. Get out that's a food delivery truck.. Only 965 deaths in the whole state.. Making like that is from that single hospital its total bullshit..

 

And if they were so desperate for ventilators, those 5 ventilators wouldnt just be sitting there. You also dont need to "leak" footage of the lines outside the hospital

Unsure what her motives are
