I guess this is for resource planning. Mapped down to our subdivision. We are in the lowest risk category but about a mile away, we see highest risk category.

"Data for reported cases is updated daily from The New York Times."

Thanks, but no thanks.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Thanks, vespa
My house is on a dividing line.
My side of the street is ranked “very low”
The neighbors across from me are 2 levels more at risk, “high”.

I assume I’ll need to stay at least 6 feet away from the centerline of my street?
I think I’ll keep that to myself whilst casting a suspicious eye on them doing yard work.
Should I make them shout, “Unclean!” while they are outside?

[dangus]

Well, the worst counties in America are all rated “very low risk.” Sooo...so much for that.

[FirstFlaBn]

More bullshit modeling based on secret criteria.

Should take the media about 45 minutes to misapply it.

[BBB333]

Thanks for the linkie-dinkie!

I live on acreage outside of town — My house and most of the property have a risk level of ‘LOW’ — the back driveway, however is listed as ‘MEDIUM’

I guess I know which driveway to use!

[PGR88]

I can’t imagine what factors they used for this. Our distant suburban/country area, where everyone is on 2 acres or more, is indicated as “high risk.”

The part of the nearby city where the Soros organizations were placing in rented apartments the government sponsored “refugees” from places like Camaroon, Burma or Somalia, are ranked as “low risk.”

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I see the same thing. We are in lowest risk category, but just down the road, it jumps all the way to highest risk category. There are no big changes in the neighborhood, so that is just weird...and suspicious.

The map does not correlate well with actual case data.

Likely because it’s implied theme of “socioeconomic factors” does not match actual outcomes. That is probably because it assumes behaviors determined solely by such factors and not by human character, morals and values regardless of socioeconomic factors.

[WakeUpAndVote]

Garbage.

[Alberta's Child]

I took a quick look at this and then decided to ignore it.

My area's risk level is "Very Low."

The nearest "Very High" risk area is about two miles away ... and yet it has the exact same characteristics in the NYT data as my area.\

Makes me wonder how they even assign the risk levels. You can probably do a better job with much less effort by simply looking at population density and no other data.

How was the analysis conducted?

Jvion analyzed de-identified data on 30 million Americans
Data analyzed includes de-identified claims, USDA, EPA, Transportation and other third-party data sources like food and retail access, length of job commute, and transportation
Patient modeling was performed using comparable respiratory viruses as a surrogate endpoint
Geolocation and points of interest data is provided by Microsoft services and supported on the Azure platform

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Useless. They picked silly criteria.

[Autonomous User]

Thanks for posting. Just another tool to use to keep informed.

[Fido969]

That map looks completely wrong to me. It has Cumberland County, the area in Maine hardest hit as low risk, and next door Oxford county with only a few cases as high risk

It has the Bronx as low risk.

[null and void]

NYC is listed as "low risk"?

'nuff said!

Bring Out Your Dead

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 fart’s life, it's worth it.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

When are the counties going to report the number of cases by area of residence in each county?

According to this website, my county is rated low, but the area to the north of our house is rated high.

It would seem prudent for the county health departments to give the areas within each county where a person is known to have contracted the corona virus.

[Sequoyah101]

Color me skeptical. Somebody went wild with a correlation of de-identified patient data on respiratory infections.

When they identify an area that is almost all wildlife refuge down in the river bottom as high risk their credibility is lost to me.

I’m calling bull shit on this one.

I suspect gooberment waste.

[SoCal Pubbie]

This map is putting me in high risk but the factors listed don’t add up. It’s suspect imho.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Same for me, my area is extremely low risk, but about two miles from us is one of our hispanic enclaves (and a place I lived in when I first moved here in 1981), and it has the highest risk possible. Lots of people in each residence, a community that hangs out (I still see them out doing things together).

[SE Mom]

Thanks for posting. We’ll see.
