Coronavirus is one mutation away from infecting millions

[DarrinS]

I have been nothing but clear that I hope hydroxychloroquine works also. Just because I hate Trump doesn't mean I wouldn't love it if one of the drugs he's touting actually works and saves a ton of lives and pulls us out of this mess.

Fuck it. Give me the full cocktail of HCQ, remdesavir, zinc, vitamin c, etc. Whatever keeps me off a deathalator.

[DarrinS]

Some better data on asymptomatic/presymptomatic rate.

1252412650790678529

Good and bad. Good, because it guarantees a lower mortality rate. Bad, because that large of a percentage who don't know they have it can easily spread it to those vulnerable. If anything, the large proportion of asymptomatic carriers is more of a reason to social distance. Reason SARS-1 burned itself out quickly was because asymptomatic carriers weren't really that infectious and then could easily isolate when they got sick.

Really fucked up virus. Between the long incubation and asymptomatic spreaders, you couldn't "design" a worse pathogen.

It would take about 10 trillion to give every working American 75K. If we planned right since SARS, we could basically have every American take a vacation for a year until treatment/vaccine. And not everyone would need that 75K due to savings, wealth, being able to work from home etc, so 10 trillion would be enough to float those who need the most over the pandemic's lifespan. We need such a plan after this ends.

[midnightpulp]

And that's my issue with the protesters right now. You shouldn't be protesting to go "back to work." You should be protesting for better solutions so that you feel you are not forced back to work to make ends meet during a pandemic.

Agreed. That was exactly my thoughts last night that they should be protesting for solutions that can help them. For examples protest for the government to pass a bill that would help prevent them from getting evicted.

I asked where are the threads about it. I didn't ask why you didn't create one. You said you didn't know, nor did I. Then your very next word was "Trump". Fact: After you knew (even now), you still didn't raise it as an issue, but you went out of your way to try to blame the current admin for it by cherry picking a sentence from an article that stated the stockpile was depleted in 2009 and not restocked. So yeah, you're a liar. What's worse is you're doing backflips to try to gas light the forum into believing you're not.


No. I wouldn't have made a thread either time. I don't make threads that often. Your whataboutism is duly noted, however. You managed to change the subject from Trump's failure for a little bit.


Here's what you said and the small, cherry picked paragraph from the article you posted. Notice how you try to disguise the fact that it was used three years later, hoping to give the impression that somehow it was fine in 2016.


And it's not like the stockpile wasn't at one time almost ten times as large as it was going into this pandemic. (honesty would have you saying "prior to 2009")

The national stockpile used to be somewhat more robust. In 2006, Congress provided supplemental funds to add 104 million N95 masks and 52 million surgical masks in an effort to prepare for a flu pandemic.

We've already done all this. Why pretend we didn't?

Once I pointed out to you that The Obama admin used the masks and didn't restock them, you never revisited that fact (even CC challenged you on it and you were dead silent).

So you're a liar.

Gov. Brian Kemp sets Georgia on aggressive course to reopen, putting his state at center of deepening national debate

Kemp (R), who was among the last of the nation’s governors to impose a statewide stay-at-home directive,

caused blowback from public health experts,

who said the state did not yet meet the criteria issued by the White House,

and set up a potential confrontation with the mayor of Atlanta and leaders from other cities advising residents to stay at home.

would allow gyms, barber shops, tattoo parlors and bowling alleys, among other businesses, to reopen on Friday,

He said theaters and dine-in restaurants would be permitted to resume activity on April 27.

Cuomo Says Florida Beachgoers Travelling to New York Must First Be Tested for I.Q.

ALBANY —After seeing images of Floridians crowding the beaches in Jacksonville,

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that

all Florida beachgoers who travel to New York must first be tested for I.Q.

“Just as we’ve started flattening the curve,

a surge in Florida beachgoers is the last thing our state needs,” Cuomo said.

“And so, at all points of entry in New York, we will be ramping up I.Q. testing immediately.”

Cuomo said that, in order to administer I.Q. tests to all Florida beachgoers attempting to enter New York,

the state will have to purchase tens of thousands of I.Q. tests on the open market.

For example, Cuomo announced 480 something deaths overall today. He doesn’t add probable deaths in his briefings but WoM does so their tally is almost 700 deaths for NY.

a huge problem for restaurants, etc paying poverty wages is that their ex-employees receiving unemployment money AND $600/week for 13 weeks means they make more money, $15/hour ?, off work rather than at work for shitty wages.

So even if it were "safe" to work again, poverty wage people would not work to keep claiming $600/week

Anybody here have any interest in going to a movie in a theater anytime soon? No one I know is eager to.

Went to the Drive-In in Ennis, TX last weekend. It was a nice change of pace. But honestly not any better of a movie viewing experience than sitting on the couch.

It's been very slow in my area. Probably because people are aware of it and take common sense precautions.From what I've seen the number of new cases is ranging from 50-70 a day in the county. I'm not sure that meets Strike Force criteria for reopening, which is why I ask.

We do have several Bill Millers here though.

[hater]

Can't stay shut down forever

agree. and if ppl need to eat they need to be allowed to go out and win a living

but governors and orangutans saying stupid shit like “were opening back up” or “we are opening the evonomy back us” is fucking stupid and irresponsible

they need detailed guidelines on how businesses can open up and if businesses violate these guidelines they can be sued the fuck up or fined. then let the business owners and public decide how to open shit back up

its pretty fucking simple, china is doing it. if you cannot protect your customers or enforce they protect themselves then you running a risk of getting fined, sued or shut down

fucking simple tbqh

New California study shows $1 billion silver lining due to coronavirus shelter-in-place orders (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2020/4/20/1938864/-New-California-study-shows-1-billion-silver-lining-due-to-coronavirus-shelter-in-place-orders)

enormous reduction in the daily rate of collisions. This means a lot less death and injury and a lot of public money saved.

UC Davis researchers found that the daily rate of collisions in California was cut in half after the order, and

that cut closely matched the reduction in deaths and injuries connected to vehicular crashes.

To this end, the study found that

trauma centers reported a 40% reduction in people seen during this time,

which includes pedestrians and cyclists involved in vehicular collisions.

The savings to the public is estimated at about $40 million per day,

adding up to around $1 billion in savings since the beginning of the shelter-in-place order.

You're opening when your local government decides. Federalism

Will we be forced to go there and eat shitty bbq?

[ChumpDumper]

Austin just seems to be on a plateau these past two weeks. I have always been under the impression that the daily new case count should be on a downward trend for a time before relaxing any restrictions. Hence my confusion about statewide relaxation. They opened up a state park right in the middle of one of Travis county's hot spots so it seems dicey to me.

[baseline bum]

Lots of people crowded around in an enclosed area for extended periods of time is a great mitigation strategy.

No. Just pointing out why NYC was fubar. Also pop density and climate.

[ChumpDumper]

Oh no, not the park!Considering where people normally congregate in that particular park AND that it's in one of the more infected areas, why is it absolutely no concern to you aside from the fact you aren't there?

Explain.

I can live like this, but I understand others can't.

[ChumpDumper]

No. Just pointing out why NYC was fubar. Also pop density and climate.We also locked down earlier. As I said, Austin is on a two week plateau for new cases per day. Is this time to re-open according to Strike Force?

Just go ahead and say how many deaths and health problems you're comfortable with while you're making jokes.

So far your criteria for reopening are....because reasons....

Go ahead.

Really? I was in the east side this past weekend, and it was a complete ghost town. I'm surprised that it's leveling off as opposed to trending downward.

I couldn't get into a gas station because I didn't have a mask. I didn't even know that was a thing as I'm in Houston. The point about different localities is really well taken.

From what I've seen restrictions are being followed pretty well by people and especially by businesses.

Almost half of SA's deaths are from a single nursing home.

We aren’t opening up shit here in Oregon. Probably won’t until mid-May at the earliest. Sucks.

[slick'81]

Holy shit.

Republican governors across the Southeast are teaming up to reopen the region’s economy, even as they lack the testing to know how rapidly the coronavirus is spreading.

One health expert called the political decision a “perfect storm” for the virus to reassert itself.

The newly formed coalition includes Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi, a part of the country that has underfunded health systems, as well as high rates of obesity, diabetes and other illnesses that amplify the deadliness of the coronavirus.

https://www.politico.com/states/florida/story/2020/04/21/southern-governors-create-a-covid-19-coalition-and-experts-fear-a-perfect-storm-1278753









It's not surprising from the south when you think about it, and not just because it's primarily populated by raging morons who couldn't pass a 4th grade exam.

The news over the last few weeks has been talking about how black and brown people are more susceptible to coronavirus and are more likely to face serious consequences from getting it. In the south, most of the hardest hit areas thus far are the areas where there are higher numbers of these more susceptible minorities.

These bastards are low key letting the virus go wild to hurt minorities. They don't care about the devastation because it will be mostly detrimental to people they hate and are afraid of and BAH GAWD THE SOUF SHALL RISE AGIN~~~

[phxspurfan]

We aren’t opening up shit here in Oregon. Probably won’t until mid-May at the earliest. Sucks.

Yeah all the West/Northwest states are definitely going to be shut down for at least 3 weeks to a month more. I'm guessing come beginning of May, they renew for 2 weeks, then renew for another 2 weeks. To make it seem like there's light at the end of the tunnel. And to make up for the shitheads in LA who are spreading the most cases by far on the West coast.

[phxspurfan]

Almost half of SA's deaths are from a single nursing home.

Thats what sucks and is making cases spike IMO. It's starting to hit nursing homes everywhere. I read about one with 150 out of 160 people infected. Even if distancing and masks and shit are working, no way to block it from spreading like wildfire among a vulnerable population concentrated inside in one HVAC duct system

I love how leftists will shit all over Americans and bend over backwards to spin some positive about illegals. They'll piss on the intelligence of an American and shill for illegals who apparently bring a massive iq boost to the country. They want basically no standards for coming here and pretend to care about intelligence.

He may or not be a child of immigrants. But she is definitely a spoiled child :lol

And sure, I'd trade illegals for dipshit left-tards who wear Che Guevera or Mao shirts and think Communism is cool and edgy. Different side of the same coin vs. their MAGAT counterparts.
