President Trump’s suggestion that he would like to see the country begin reopening by Easter, which is April 12, has met with a lot of skepticism. But it may not be that far-fetched.
While almost all of the news about the coronavirus pandemic has been negative, there are reasons to think things won’t be as bad as many of the news outlets and talking heads are predicting. Here are some of them:

The number of New Deaths Per Day is a lagging indicator of the current number of New Infections Per Day. It lags behind by about 20 days.
A better indicator are the number of New Cases Per Day which has been relatively flat over the last 3 days, at about 17K, 19K and 19K.
Also the number of New Hospitalizations are down over the last three days at about 3.9K, 3.6K and 3.0K.
The Worldometer final number was 525.
Based on predictions, I would have thought we would have had many more deaths due to COVID-19 than are being reported. We've still going upward, but I wonder if the predictions that we'll exceed 1,000 deaths daily will actually turn out to be true.
It’s a shame there has to be so many @ssholes in the world.
You might find it's easier getting people to talk to you, if you aren't so much of a horse's @ss.
Did you see the comment from him I was responding to?
BTW, the death numbers for Saturday and Sunday, 525 and 264 respectively, and combined, still don’t get to 1,000.
Correct. Great news.
Good for the country. Bad for NYS.
I saw that. Like i said, “This is not biological”.
This isn't just about biology in a closed petri dish. There are other factors. Behavioral for instance.
Still great numbers for the rest of the country.
Lots of medical/economic damage can happen as the curve flattens. It might flatten slowly. Even worse it just might rise again. Anyways, more deaths, more permanent lung damage, more billions in lost economic activity. We shall see. Lets hope and pray for the best. Dang Chinese and their bestial wet markets. And their hunger for bat soup.
These wet markets are future breeding grounds for more exotic viruses. Their Asian neighbors saw this movie before with the Chinese generated SARS virus outbreak (2002-2003) so were more prepared. You live right next to Commie China, then you better have your nation ready for the next Chinese wet market virus. Koreans, Taiwanese, Singaporeans, Japanese were all ready and we must be too. With today's modern mass air travel spreading diseases, we have to have all anti-virus equipment stockpiled and testing ready to go instantaneously.
"The outbreak of coronavirus and SARS in China is believed to have passed from bats and other animals to humans in a wet market."
But if you can recognize it ain’t biological then it’s noise, and it was.
It appears there have been occasions of aerosol spread. 6 feet is a recommendation for droplet spread.
But if you can recognize it ain’t biological then it’s noise, and it was.
You ignored what I said.
He’ss an anesthesiologist. He can treat people any way he wants. They are largely unconscious when he is doing his job.
And in a doubling every two days he was off by two days. Depends on when he made the prediction how impressive it was. I don’t like making predictions of #s, all I want to know is when do we hit the top. It looked like we might have a couple days ago and then we got that 525. We are at 300 something for yesterday and seems to me it should go to 500 or so, likely as more data comes in. That would make much more sense than “260” ever did.
And if due to reporting that is the definition of “noise”.
Well, you can always hope for 1,000+. Today, every day, if that's what warms your little cockless.
I wouldn't suggest that you pray for a thousand or more.
But you can always sit and hope really hard.
Yes, that is the good news. Let’s hope it stays low. Thanks.
