Yesterday's thread here:

Send me a PM and I’ll send you a link to the models. Go ahead and update the data/assumptions as you wish to test. Just make sure to reference your assumptions.
Lookner - OAN lost their seat at WH presser.
Don’t know if that was guy who has CV or moving the seats farther apart caused the seat loss.
“UK in lock down. Much the same as here but more than 2 people gathering is prohibited.”
God only knows what will happen here, given the FluBros pounding Trump. Maybe we say, let it BURN...and whoever is left, and healthy enough, gets to inherit this country?
interesting.. dont the press pool overlords decide who gets a seat?
“Maybe we say, let it BURN...and whoever is left, and healthy enough, gets to inherit this country?”
That has been a rational option from the onset. There IS a plausible argument that the cure is worse than the disease.
But it is not the moral option. At least not yet.
Arkansas (latest)
1,128 tested
197 cases positive
931 cases negative
0 recoveries
0 deaths
The 18-48 age group is over 50% of the NYS cases in the hospital now, and they stay over 3 weeks.
Not enough data on US ICU mortality rates yet, Italian mortality from ICU is nearly 50% according to the doctors on video. Now that ChiCom doctors on site in Italy, expect the German model of assigning cause of death to the underlying causes rather than Wuhanic Plague.
We can’t even trust US data at this early point, as anecdotal reports show us doing the same thing.
No offense, and thanks for your data, but GIGO.
Here in my tiny WA county, our ICUs will be full this week.
I posted this on another thread, thinking I’m so clever - decided to repost here..
“Dad, what did you do during The Great Pandemic War of 2020 - 2022?”
“Son, I rode shotgun on a Charmin truck.”
I like that the daily briefings are sliding later and later in the day.
Into Prime Time.
Trump is in a zone now, playing with instinctive abandon.
Dunno.
FNC - Hilton Hotels at 15% occupancy world wide.
And what do you propose to do when ‘let it burn’ involves unwinding the derivative risk pool underlying the insurers?
Do you have any idea what happens to the country, financially, if that happens?
;’The Great Shutdown Depression’ will be fondly remembered as the ‘good old days’ in comparison.
Imagine what would happen to insurers if a cat5 cane hit every coast at once.
Or the cascadia, new madrid and (pick any fault in California) all went off at the same time.
That ‘burn through it’ is literally a nuclear holocaust of financial harm.
Both beds?
Lol.

A declaration of a universal debt holiday and a complete repudiation of the US debt.
/s
No, really.

Honestly I’m of mixed thoughts on that one.
But I do know that whatever happens after this, it will really, really suck.
“Do you have any idea what happens to the country, financially, if that happens?”
I don’t think the civil order would hold together in a burn through scenario.
It’s just not an option.
“That (letting it burn through) has been a rational option from the onset. There IS a plausible argument that the cure is worse than the disease...But it is not the moral option. At least not yet.”
Yea, and I’d like to see some other country try it first. The UK essentially said they would, then backed off. No other country that I know of has tried it, not even China, who could stand to lose a couple of hundred million old people.
