But there’s one data point being used in all of the prevailing models, including Imperial, that no one is talking about.
When did the COVID curve begin?
And it’s an important point. How can we interpret the data we currently have if we don’t know where on the time axis we actually are?

You have to remember that prior to that date, they weren’t looking for or testing for covid-19.
Presume it is flat. The $64,000 question becomes what next?
Me too
Same here. Co-worker got really sick with covid symptoms about 12 weeks ago.
Beware.. this is a site KNOWN To present news that is 100% FAKE.
Is it this article?

If so, ask a Mod to link to it.
Facist big brother ate the article.
“410 this post is under investigation or was found in violation of the Medium Rules. There are thousands of stories to read on Medium.”
That totally fails to account for mild cases that may have been raging for weeks or months prior to reaching the more susceptible population which tends to not get out as much.
“Social media war against the first amendment continues.”
The site itself says the story violates site rules.
Occasionally things happen that aren’t a conspiracy. It’s rare but it can happen.
First, Medium is just a blog.
Second, the CV-19 impact is just starting in the country.
It’s been a few weeks. These kinds of charts are useless until it’s been about a year.
If the point is that you should be allowed outside to congregate—go ahead. No one is going to stop you.
They only link back to Medium which has killed the article.
Wow.
I wish that model would keep track of projections as time moves forward. Instead they are running actual data from the past with the prediction on the right side. That way the previous prediction is erased.
Scroll down to see what I mean;

Actually the point was that they need to ramp up antibody testing ASAP to definitively establish a seed date because there a many people being denied timely diagnostic services for cancer, diabetes, etc.
If they are wrong about the date, the models are wrong. Let’s be honest, the models aren’t standing up well to the real time data.
So is the economy. DOA
Yeah, I wonder what rule that might be?
Obviously couldn’t read the article but the charts seemed well prepared. I doubt it was censored for cuss words or inciting violence.
Ooh, the wayback machine updated and it is there!
