On Georgia our US data source was updated today but _still_ says Georgia (and several other states btw) are not releasing official total individual test numbers, only number of individual positive tests.

Lochner reminding everyone that many state still have not tested anyone—you can see the numbers here:

All sporting events banned from competitions in Italy until early April—not just no fans, no actual events. That is draco, bro!

That means no Cristiano Ronaldo.

This entire thing is massive FEAR MONGERING by the liberal media to try to make President Trump look bad in a Presidential election year. It won’t work.

In the USA this year ...
34 to 49 million people have had flu symptoms.
350,000 to 620,000 flu hospitalizations
64,000 people died of the flu.

So far, 22 people have died of the Coronavirus in the USA.

What is more important?
64,000 deaths from the flu or 22 deaths from the Coronavirus?

Several folks here had questioned the first responder safety measures at the time—looks like we called it again...

Well this puts to rest the “it’s only the flu” narrative. This virus doesn’t care what the weather is.

Geez, just found my online delivery package shipped out of WA in the mailbox with all the other mail. Sprayed straight bleach over everything and my hands and left it outside. Washed my hands with the hottest tap water. Sprayed my hands again and wiped the spray bottle. Rinsed and repeated.

I order something online maybe once every 3 years and of course this just had to come from WA.

asymptomatic would be no fever, no cough, no positive test

the American citizens will be distributed to the various bases. Any that develop symptoms will likely go to Omaha for the Gilead trial or into local hospitals for treatment same as they did with the DP peeps

as for the other 53 countries, Canada will likely airlift the Canadians and any brits. Who knows about the rest? (why 53 countries’ citizens would be launching from SFO is a question for another day)

I looked at the numbers in Farmer’s post #1134

Just anecdotally, the ‘carrier’ rate and Asymptomatic rate in:
children up to age 10 was 1 in 16 (6%), 1 AS
in 10-19 teens, 5 in 23 (22%), 3 AS
in 20somethings 28 in 347 (8%), 3 AS
and in 30somethings 34 in 428 (8%), 7 AS
in 40somethings 27 in 334 (8%), 8 AS
in 50somethings 59 in 398 (15%), 31 AS
in 60somethings 177 in 923 (19%), 101 AS
in 70somethings 234 in 1015 (23%), 139 AS
in 80somethings 52 in 216 (25%), 25 AS
and in over 90, 2 in 11 (18%) 0 AS

with only a very small section of children below 10, is it feasible at all to say that the elderly are the most likely to be asymptomatic carriers until they crash, and the 10-19 age group are the most likely to be symptomatic carriers who don’t crash? But, how did the conditions on the boat, no red zone set up for instance, no crew testing, affect the percentages? Is the data garbage or useable?

I know—here we are here with 12,000 posts over the past couple of weeks discussing the dumb flu, and after reading all of them you are convinced there is nothing to see here.

Thanks for the insight!

;-)

Aie!

I’d imagine a sample of mail sorting equipment and delivery vehicles would be interesting.

I’ll hope not of course.

LA County official just said that since there was no public exposure (only cases from travel) there is no need to inform the public exactly where in LA County (the size of CT!) the exposure is.

Bwahahahahhahahahaha!

Hint: They exposed other people in their neighborhood and area before they were tested—at home, at work, in restaurants, other errands—nothing to see here!
