Can’t one just calculate the percentage?
Went to fisherman’s breakfast today.
Usually 40 guys show up but today only 14 and only 2 other customers.
Guess they are closing down the restaurants and bars.
No meetings over 50 people now in Wa. state.
Things are getting real.
Q do your thing, get er done.
The Department of Health and Human Services came under a foreign cyber attack Sunday night as the agency continues to manage and respond to the Wuhan coronavirus.
“The U.S. Health and Human Services Department suffered a cyber-attack on its computer system Sunday night during the nation’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, according to three people familiar with the matter,” Bloomberg reports. “The attack appears to have been intended to slow the agency’s systems down, but didn’t do so in any meaningful way, said the people, who asked for anonymity to discuss an incident that was not public.”
Fraudulent text messages about “CDC guidance” were also sent out Sunday night, prompting the National Security Council to warn about false, disinformation during a crisis.
Yes, we can know numbers of patients diagnosed through testing and we can know numbers of patients who tested positive and died.
But percentages can’t be known unless we know the status of every person in a an area.
For example, if a hundred million Americans have had this virus and recovered because they were asymptomatic or if they thought it was the flu and weren’t tested then percentages which assume that those people haven’t had it aren’t reliable.
I’m not disputing hard numbers, but I am skeptical of percentages.
SCOOP: HHS suffered a cyber-attack last night during the nation’s response to #COVIDー19. The attack appears to have been intended to slow the agency’s systems down, but didn’t do so in any meaningful way.

you can say these numbers are those who are showing symptoms and been tested.
Withing 3-4 yrs everyone will have this virus. Those who can fight will survive.
These numbers reflect people with symptoms. These numbers will go up as more people with symptoms will get tested.
I’m not kidding when I say that my biggest test right now is retaining some sense of civility while tolerating the panic-pushers.
It’s one thing to have a crisis but it’s another thing to use a crisis, whether real or manufactured, to push fear.
How many elderly, non-informed people out there are scared to death right now?
How many could die or have serious health issues because of their reactions to their worry?
How many people are watching their businesses or homes or savings being endangered because of fear-promoters?
All I’m saying is that, at this point, there isn’t enough data to have accurate percentages.
I’d like to add that I’m not interested in projections based on so little data.
In several months projections will mean more than they do now.
Nothing is clear in the fog of war and the fog machines of the left are going full blast.
Heard from a reliable source that a lot of guns and ammo being sold.
Whenever I do international travel, I always have anxiety. The main reason catching some bug. I do a lot of preparation, sanitizers, disinfecting wipes, masks, medicines for stomach, cough, fever, headaches, etc. And still, I get some or other infections. This when I go outside the country. But now this international bug traveled here. I and others should prepare. Eventually, this bug will hit everyone, we can delay it as long as possible, I want to delay till medicine/injection is out. That’s my strategy.
Last year I had H1N1, the medicine worked like a charm. Able to delay it for 4 yrs.
I believe it.
We knew it would get ugly this election year.
As a nation we’re being tested.
But, God is with us always and He has brought us a great leader for these difficult times!

Another top heavy behemoth designed with disregard for many of the principles of naval architecture.
I fully expect one of those top heavy cruise ships to go topsy-turvy someday taking several thousand passengers down with it.
