The Coronavirus, not the beer

That data doesnt jive with CDC data. Also dont make much sense... basically showing a tripling of deaths but only 2k from covid?

The data are ED visits for NY city for patients with ILI (influenza like illnesses). Not deaths. The website has other data if you want to dig around.

Thanks. Was confused by your wording as the post said mortality rates.

I've admittedly been focusing on deaths and not illness

What does 'linked to Covid-19' even mean?

Would this child have lived otherwise?

Sounds like they were able to try to revive her.

Why would we have waited this long?

Kemp making Georgians look stupid, because he said during his presser that the main reason he decided it was time to issue the order was because a doctor told him the day before that COVID could be transmitted by people who are asymptomatic... I wish that was a joke. What the hell was he paying attention to the last 2 months?

I hope he's lying about that.

No, but it looks like she received treatment for whatever her "linked to Covid" problem was. I wondered that she might have not received treatment because the emergency room was too busy, thus the ambiguous phrase "linked to Covid".

This is a fair argument. I would like to know more.

Total hospitalizations are going to fall off a cliff soon. Staying closed till April 30th is an awful decision.

We are not a technocracy.

Mexico cases rising. Still very early but that is going to be very important to monitor. There could be a massive rush on the border.

Game changer

One thing we should continue to remember is that the official models for the fear mongering have been overstated by a factor of 4 consistently.

Let's hope they continue to be wrong.

If they're not, we have severely reacted to bad data

This will be fascinating. I think this is the approach that we should have taken in addition to communicating that the at risk population should take precaution.

I've thought the Sweden approach merited consideration. Obviously most countries have decided otherwise. But I'm glad one country is acting as a guinea pig for that approach.

It will be interesting to see how things turn out for them relative to their peer group: Denmark, Norway, FINLAND, Estonia

Some more reading.

This is like climate alarmists in a different form pretending the only way to fight this is a complete shutdown.

The government always wants more power and will use fear to get it

There is a convenient demand to shut down the economy and let the government grow.

Last gasp by globalists to stop populism?

Will obesity doom the South?

I can’t believe you could see the issues people and this country are dealing with in this country right now

And not think: things need to change here after all this
