Reporter asks you are using only 16,000 beds, and you said you would need at least 110,000. As Tucker discussed Friday night, hospitalization rates nationwide are only about 15-20% of what the models predicted.
video at link-start at 20:40 mark
The numbers are tracking what I estimated they would be. Of course, I pulled them out of my nether regions, but that approach is similar to what was done by the designated experts, but with better results in this case. You can refer to them diplomatically as “seat of the pants calculations”.
I never trust Sunday and Monday numbers. Government workers take the weekend off.
how do you know then that the peak hasn’t already passed? This is a huge guessing game that’s ruining our economy

“Wrong URL....”
I posted the URL to the FR thread.
I’m talking upstate areas- this was as of a couple of days ago i saw it- counties like warren, essex etc and further north- Canadian border north- Rochester is pretty close to Albany isn’t it?
this isn’t the one i saw- but it shows upper state in light yellow- lower down state it gets more red-
Longtime CNN liberal has been of of the primary doom and gloom antagonists on network TV. Hes itching at the bits to blame Trump. Hes one of the main reasons I primarily watch OANN and Newsmax, although Newsmax has their share of Trump haters. Not a day goes by that monkey face Cuomo does not blame Trump for NYC inspite of not buying ventilators when he had the chance. Hes also released infected felons out of prison and they of course infect others wherever they go. But of course everything is Trumps fault, and Cuomo is the latest democrat savior. Makes me sick.
“I never believe models.”
I don’t either, but I’d let her lie to me for a few days.
LOL. but you trust government workers when they’re ON the clock? good grief
Why does he continually have to ask someone off screen for the answers he should already know himself?
No. Rochester is much closer to Buffalo than Albany.
Told ya so!
We can expect a lot more of this over the next week or two - they put out worst case scenarios to get everyone in line - now they will have to start walking them back
there was a cold or flu going around that we called ‘The Crud’
-Symptoms were chills for a coupel days (3 i think)
-Sniffles for 3 days
-Nauseous
-slight headache
-Slight Sore Throat
-Slight fever (Mine only got to 99.3)
-Very tired- slept long hours
-Weak, little things exhausted us- made us weak and shaky
-Diarrhea for 2 days
Pretty sure it wasn’t Covid because of The “D” and Nausea, and the fact that where we are, there were zero cases- still are only a few cases around us weeks later- (Mainly from city folks coming up north to shop and wipe us all out of toilet paper and food)

“You might want to suspend judgment until the peak passes. ALL of the predictions are based on MODELS. The statistician, George Box, wrote that All models are wrong but some are useful. Gov Coumo has been honest about the use and uncertainty of models. Prudent leaders prepare for the worst and hope for the best. We will know within 1-2 weeks when we have crossed the peak.”
how do you know then that the peak hasnt already passed?
Some people pine for the Fjords. Cuomo pines for the virus "apex."
What numbers are a fraud ? The actual cases, the hospital usage. The deaths ? The numbers reported each day in NY and NJ are not a fraud.
Doh- lol- Never was good at geography lol-
The link i showed shows that out near buffalo, it is pretty red- seems there’s a hot spot there- but who knows how accurate the map is- like folks have said- many peopel have it but haven’t been tested-
Not destroy, take over. If it’s necessary to destroy it in order to take it over, they’ll do it. Fortunately, it is not in their hands. Trump can reopen Main Street without so much as a by-your-leave from Congress.
“...but you trust government workers when theyre ON the clock?”
Not then, either.
