Questions: What is the percent of positives in relation to the percent tested, per state and its population (Politico shows tested numbers, if slow to update). Ratio.
Note, the more people are tested then the higher the infection count, but which does not necessarily mean a great increase in new cases.
The increase in reported infections that makes NY the epicenter corresponds to the 32,427 tests given, with an increase of +29,124 since last week, and showing 7,102 positives, out of a total pop. of 19,453,561.
In comparison, California has done 11,487 tests, with an increase since last week 10,319, showing 1,063 positives, while the state has a total pop. of 39,512,223. (https://www.politico.com/interactives/2020/coronavirus-testing-by-state-chart-of-new-cases/)
What is the death rate in relation to the estimated amount of infections?
What is the infection and death rate aside from outliers (confined petri-dish scenarios)? The NYT reports :
| How Virus Was Contracted | Cases |
|---|---|
| Personal contact in U.S. | 192 |
| Travel overseas | 124 |
| Cluster connected to a community in New Rochelle, N.Y. | 113 |
| Travel within the U.S. | 98 |
| Nursing facility in Kirkland, Wash. | 59 |
| Travel in Egypt | 48 |
| Diamond Princess cruise ship | 43 |
| Long-term care facility in DuPage County, Ill. | 42 |
| Travel in Italy | 39 |
| Business conference in Boston | 30 |
What is the death rate apart from those under 65 and or with serious other health issues?
What would be the cost and effects of providing most everyone with N95 masks (retooling to produce them) and requiring such to be worn outside the home if in groups, while also practicing hygiene, yet allowing most everyone to get back to work using them, while safe guarding seniors and or those with serious medical conditions?
And will the long term effects be (social and financial) of the self-quarantines and safe mode economy and the increase in welfare and government control and dependence?
YOUR. COLUMNS. ARE. OFF. Makes it look like New York has 10,000 dead.
New York needs to be quarantined.
It is like Wuhan in China. Milan in Italy. Daegu in Korea.
One locality dwarfs all others in cases.
Masks and gloves. I like your idea. Make masks and gloves available to everyone and lets get back to work. A whole lot cheaper than shutting down the economy, destroying 5 million jobs, and blitzing trillions of dollars.
Worldometer gives me a lot of hope.
These numbers are not panic-inducing not hey show how few cases and deaths there are.
There is one real problem site which is NYC.
Your columns are WAY OFF -
you should ask mod to delete and repost it correctly.
In hard-hit areas, testing restricted to health care workers, hospital patients
https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/03/21/coronavirus-testing-strategyshift/
Will make these types of calculations difficult, yes?
Get your columns right!! GEESH!
Anyone know if the day archives are available at worldometer?
They always have yesterday available, but where can I find the prior days?
Anything being reported on ethnic/occupational/male/female breakdown??
Anything being reported on ethnic/occupational/male/female breakdown??
There are 112 wtotal cases in Utah as of today. Your chart says 114 deaths. Your data is bullshyt.
What is the average recovery period?
If it becomes uncontainable, we should remove economic restrictions and let it run its course, like swine flu.
At some point, containment is counterproductive.
At the same time, we can provide targeted aid to those most at risk, and we can remove regulatory burdens to getting proper drugs, etc.
