Cuomo a great leader? A great speaker?

He came across today like an older, uglier, male version of Greta Thunberg.

“All your ventilators is belong to me!” said the Gov. of New York.

Android Cuomo.

Honestly, I’m beginning to suspect that more than 10% of the nation has already had it.

We may be further along on the herd immunity than we realize, what with so many people being asymptomatic or hardly having any symptoms or that weird illness they had around Christmas before we knew what was hitting us that was in reality(likely)corona.

I'll provide the rest of your comments in the post to help you out:

"Everyone on the Diamond Princess cruise ship quarantined on board in Japan was tested. They found 400 people who had CV but no symptoms to go with the 305 sick people who were identified with it prior to the final test series.

It is very fair to say that there are at least as many asymptomatic CV victims as those who have symptoms. That's been my working hypothesis since those Diamond Princess statistics came out. There might be several times as many asymptomatic as symptomatic. We just don't know now, and probably won't until after the pandemic is over. "

Specifically:

"They found 400 people who had CV but no symptoms to go with the 305 sick people who were identified with it prior to the final test series."

To me that looks like you are saying 400 symptoms, 300 no symptoms. Do you agree with that interpretation?

I'll assume you do, so on to the next part:

"There might be several times as many asymptomatic as symptomatic."

To which I responded that several times 3 is not 4 (300 and 400). Do you agree with that statement, namely that that is essentially what I said? And that several times 3 (traditionally, 9) is way more than 4?

I will assume you do, so as to the part you seem to be upset about, I was merely resetting the table after refuting your spurious claim. Or rather after pointing out that your very own evidence refutes your claim.

The DP was a very well defined study in the distribution of asymptomatic to symptomatic in a closed population. Would you also agree with that? If the ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic was "several times" there would have been 525 or so infected without symptoms and 175 or so with. Way different from the stats you presented.

So, what did I miss?

Metmom:

The reason I think that only a small percentage of the US has it (under 1%) is because these exponential curves are exactly what we would expect.

The numbers all tie together—cases/hospitalizations/ICU/deaths.

15% of cases are hospitalizations
5% of cases are ICU
2% of cases are deaths (with a bit of lag time)

These are close to the largest and best documented numbers we have, which are New York State numbers.

So where are all the hotspots all those infected are causing? Have they just not developed symptoms, yet?

Conversely,

How could the flu have infected half of the UK? I guess there really are no immunities.

Let’s see what the results say when they are “confirmed”.

I don’t really care what the FluBros say anymore today. They are dangerous spreaders and should be shunned like AIDS spreaders.

Going full Prepper planning now.

“Portland strip club forced to close, so dancers now do delivery,” reads the headline.

The home delivery service, in which a pair of scantily clad strippers deliver hot food to your door, started as a joke, but now the new service is going great guns.

“And yes, this is quite a ways from being over...”

Indeed. People need to remember that.

Not the ones in Italy they studied. May never show symptoms but just spread it.

LOL, that didn’t take long.
