100,000 cases 14 days ago, just broke 250,000 this morning.Bring Out Your DeadAnd the day is young...
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old farts life, it's worth it.
Official count, of course. I would just multiply the official case number by 10. Some countries are doing quite well keeping count (SK comes to mind), but others, not so much (including Red China - liars - and US).
