outbreak in Hong Kong
The developments came as Hong Kong recorded 125 new Covid-19 cases on Saturday, the 11th day in a row with triple-digit increases (https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3095336/hong-kong-third-wave-city-confirms-fresh-daily)
.
The city also reported its highest daily death toll. Six elderly patients confirmed with Covid-19 and another who tested preliminary positive were the latest fatalities. They all had chronic illnesses and three were care home residents. The official infection tally stood at 3,396 with 33 related deaths.
Social-distancing measures including mandatory mask wearing in public areas, and a ban on gatherings of more than two people and on restaurant dine-in services from 6pm to 5am were expected to be extended (https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3095642/hong-kong-third-wave-more-100-new-covid-19-cases)

the main path of infection is nasal
all the proof I need, without the academic research, is that widespread masks decreases cases, no masks increases cases.
It looks like the Berliners are emulating the American anti-mask freedumb obliviots,

Texas doctor fighting 'war against COVID and a war against stupidity'
Texas, battling a spike in coronavirus cases, set a state record for deaths in a week with 1,875. At least one top physician in the state is upset by the public's unwillingness to wear masks, practice social distancing and otherwise join the battle to halt the pandemic.
"I'm pretty much fighting two wars," Dr. Joseph Varon told told NBC News (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buTkbpyB8ZI) in Houston. "A war against COVID and a war against stupidity. And the problem is the first one, I have some hope about winning. But the second one is becoming more and more difficult."
Varon, chief medical officer of United Memorial Medical Center, said that although science and common sense dictate some of the measures, "people just are not listening throughout the country."
"The thing that annoys me the most is that we keep on doing our best to save these people, and then we get another batch of people who are doing exactly what we are telling them not to do," Varon said.

As the coronavirus established itself in the U.S., it found a nation through which it could spread easily, without being detected. For years, Pardis Sabeti, a virologist at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, has been trying to create a surveillance network that would allow hospitals in every major U.S. city to quickly track new viruses through genetic sequencing. Had that network existed, once Chinese scientists published SARS‑CoV‑2’s genome on January 11, every American hospital would have been able to develop its own diagnostic test in preparation for the virus’s arrival. “I spent a lot of time trying to convince many funders to fund it,” Sabeti told me. “I never got anywhere.”
The CDC developed and distributed its own diagnostic tests in late January. These proved useless because of a faulty chemical component. Tests were in such short supply, and the criteria for getting them were so laughably stringent, that by the end of February, tens of thousands of Americans had likely been infected but only hundreds had been tested. The official data were so clearly wrong that The Atlantic developed its own volunteer-led initiative—the COVID Tracking Project (https://covidtracking.com/)—to count cases.
Diagnostic tests are easy to make, so the U.S. failing to create one seemed inconceivable. Worse, it had no Plan B. Private labs were strangled by FDA bureaucracy. Meanwhile, Sabeti’s lab developed a diagnostic test in mid-January and sent it to colleagues in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Senegal. “We had working diagnostics in those countries well before we did in any U.S. states,” she told me.

when the fire department has a slow year, do you cut its budget?
“As public health did its job, it became a target” of budget cuts, says Lori Freeman, the CEO of the National Association of County and City Health Officials.
Today, the U.S. spends just 2.5 percent of its gigantic health-care budget on public health (https://www.tfah.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/TFAH_2019_PublicHealthFunding_07.pdf). Underfunded health departments were already struggling to deal with opioid addiction, climbing obesity rates, contaminated water, and easily preventable diseases. Last year saw the most measles cases since 1992. In 2018, the U.S. had 115,000 cases of syphilis and 580,000 cases of gonorrhea (https://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/2019/2018-STD-surveillance-report-press-release.html)—numbers not seen in almost three decades. It has 1.7 million cases of chlamydia, the highest number ever recorded.
Since the last recession, in 2009, chronically strapped local health departments have lost 55,000 jobs—a quarter of their workforce (https://www.tfah.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/TFAH2020PublicHealthFunding.pdf). When COVID‑19 arrived, the economic downturn forced overstretched departments to furlough more employees. When states needed battalions of public-health workers to find infected people and trace their contacts, they had to hire and train people from scratch (https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2020/06/18/879787448/as-states-reopen-do-they-have-the-workforce-they-need-to-stop-coronavirus-outbre).

Japan Acted Like the Virus Had Gone. Now It’s Spread Everywhere.
After initial success, Japan is facing a reality check on the coronavirus.
The country garnered global attention after containing the first wave of Covid-19 with what it referred to as the “Japan Model” -- limited testing and no lockdown, nor any legal means to force businesses to close. The country’s finance minister even suggested a higher “cultural standard” helped contain the disease.
But now the island nation is facing a formidable resurgence, with Covid-19 cases hitting records nationwide day after day. Infections first concentrated in the capital have spread to other urban areas, while regions without cases for months have become new hotspots. And the patient demographic -- originally younger people less likely to fall seriously ill -- is expanding to the elderly, a concern given that Japan is home to the world’s oldest population
Experts say that Japan’s focus on the economy may have been its undoing. As other countries in Asia, which experienced the coronavirus earlier than those in the West, wrestle with new flare ups of Covid-19, Japan now risks becoming a warning for what happens when a country moves too fast to normalize -- and doesn’t adjust its strategy when the outbreak changes.

Hawai'i pondering other lockdown
Hawaii’s positive COVID-19 (http://bit.ly/2IHAYm4) cases went back to triple digits Sunday, adding another data point to a surge that is bringing the state closer to another widespread lockdown and garnering national attention.
State Health Department officials reported only 45 new cases Sunday morning but said they were “not a complete and accurate picture due to the temporary delay in receiving complete data” from Clinical Labs of Hawaii, a private laboratory conducting most of the tests in the state.
Lt. Gov. Josh Green said Sunday evening that DOH had sorted out the accounting issue and that the “number does appear again to be in the triple digits.”
“The only way we are going to bring our numbers back down is either an immediate full-court press on all cases — tracing and testing on active cases and isolating them,” Green said, “or if the cases continue in the triple digits, the state of Hawaii will have no choice other than widespread shutdown — which will be extremely painful and nothing that I want to put people through.”
Green said the state is at a crossroads now, and “this week is the last week to get the numbers under control without having to take dramatic measures.”

The average number of daily COVID-19 deaths on a weekly basis has fallen from a peak of just over 2,000 to 700 or so. That’s a roughly 65% decline. And it’s no fluke. The figure has been dropping steadily since April.
Hold on. That last number for June 23 on the chart shows a huge jump. Should we be worried? Is this the much-dreaded surge some have been talking up?
Apparently not. A big part of that one-time gain came from a revision by one state: Delaware.
As Youyang Gu, an MIT data scientist who created the COVID 19-projections.com site, tweeted: “To put the increase in deaths in context, Delaware added 69 deaths today: ‘The revision came from identifying 67 deaths dating back to April.’ So if you take out those 67 deaths, the week-over-week deaths have not changed.”
Goldman Sachs’ state-level tracker shows similar trends. The volume of coronavirus tests has risen 23% in the past two weeks, but positive results have increased just 1.3 percentage points to 6.2%. Meanwhile, deaths have fallen over the past two weeks by 12%.
This is bad news for those who, for a variety of reasons, seek to plunge us back into lockdowns and social isolation, despite the proven devastating economic impacts that would have. If COVID-19 deaths aren’t rising, and they aren’t, the rationale for shutdowns evaporates.
But the rationale in the first place could be even weaker than first thought. The reason for this is that the deaths now attributed to COVID-19 might be grossly exaggerated. The evidence is substantial, and has been obvious for weeks. (We first wrote about it in late May.)

a moral argument against a herd immunity strategy
“What is herd immunity and could it happen in the US?” [Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/aug/04/herd-immunity-coronavirus-outbreak-vaccine)]. Interview with Dr Angela Rasmussen, virologist and associate research scientist, Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health; Dr Amber D’Souza, professor of epidemiology, Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health; Dr Marc Lipsitch, professor of epidemiology and director, Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics, Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health.
Is there any possibility that we could achieve natural herd immunity to Covid-19?
D’Souza: The data suggest that nationwide, maybe 10% of Americans have been exposed. We’re not even close to achieving herd immunity through natural infection at this point.
Rasmussen: The idea that, “Well, we’re just stuck with it, so let’s all just get it over with and we’ll all have herd immunity”, is just not done. It would cause the deaths of millions of people and potentially the permanent disability of millions more. We can’t afford to pay that type of epidemiological price for herd immunity. We need to wait for a vaccine.
Lipsitch: The problem is that we’ll suffer in the process. So, it’s not that we can’t do it, it’s that we don’t want to do it, given the damage that we now know that it can cause.
I don’t think it’s scientifically wrong, I think it’s morally wrong.

people really dont understand how herd immunity works :lol... herd immunity doesnt mean you just go about like nothing and wait for all of the at-risk people to eventually die off.
herd immunity is typically the concept that works when you have a largely vaccinated population which protects the select few who are immunocompromised. it's one thing if we get a covid vaccine rolled out that lets us reach herd immunity quickly (relative) and safely. it's another thing to just roll back all precautions and let everybody get sick and have millions hospitalized, several hundreds of thousands dead on the way there

How does it change?
Even if we low ball the herd immunity threshold to a meager 60%, and we already have 50%, it took 6 months to increase that by additional 1.6%. So we would still be looking at at least a couple of years, and that's assuming that there's a 50% of people immune, and the threshold is in the lower bound.
Herd immunity is not a solution, it's something that will happen naturally, especially if we get an effective vaccine or the virus implodes on it's own.

What he's initially talking about is kind of like survivorship bias. He's saying with 2 people infected from 1 person it was actually double that, but the other two people were immune so they had no idea they were sick. This is the part where I'm guessing but you could probably look it up. Because there's a higher r0 we may need a higher population infected for herd immunity

The Most Common Long-Term Symptoms Of Covid-19
A new study has identified a pattern of symptoms likely to be experienced by people hospitalised with the virus.
For around one in 10 people (https://theconversation.com/coronavirus-why-are-some-people-experiencing-long-term-fatigue-141405)who develop Covid-19, the symptoms don’t pass after a few weeks.
Fatigue,
breathlessness,
psychological distress – including problems with concentration and memory – and
a general decline in quality of life
are commonly reported in those who end up in hospital.
The results showed the most prevalent symptom was fatigue.
More than 60% who had been treated on a ward reported fatigue, and
one third described it as moderate or severe.
For patients who had been in intensive care, 72% reported fatigue.
Of those, more than half said it was moderate or severe.
The second most common symptom was breathlessness.
The third most prevalent issue was neuropsychological symptoms. Almost a quarter of people who had been on a ward and just under a half of the people who had been in intensive care had some of the symptoms of PTSD.
More than two thirds (69%) of patients in the intensive care group and just under half (46%) of the other group said
their overall quality of life had deteriorated since becoming ill.
there’s “very little information” on longer-term problems after people are discharged from hospital.
for some, the road to recovery may take months and it is vital specialist rehabilitation is on hand to support them,”
after three weeks of reporting symptoms,
a group of people continue to experience
fatigue,
headaches,
coughs,
loss of smell,
sore throats,
delirium, and
chest pain.

“There’s a joke about immunology, which Jessica Metcalf of Princeton recently told me. An immunologist and a cardiologist are kidnapped. The kidnappers threaten to shoot one of them, but promise to spare whoever has made the greater contribution to humanity. The cardiologist says, ‘Well, I’ve identified drugs that have saved the lives of millions of people.’ Impressed, the kidnappers turn to the immunologist. ‘What have you done?’ they ask. The immunologist says, ‘The thing is, the immune system is very complicated …’ And the cardiologist says, “Just shoot me now.'”https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/08/covid-19-immunity-is-the-pandemics-central-mystery/614956/

Dual Y axis can be used if you are comparing rates of fall or increase, but for raw numbers it's misleading and I think the author was under political pressure to not show mask use as less effective, especially given the fact that pop density isn't being charted.

Why the fck have people in the medical profession, especially in the OR, required to wear masks every time they enter?
Its like we are going through the smoking is bad or not argument all over again... People do not understand that pathogens can become airborne and drop, float a while, drop quickly...
Lay a petri dish with agar out for an hour and then close it and see what grows compared to one that is covered Try it with various types of coverings. Its not that hard to "see" understand we breath in all types of crap. Our noses and mouths and epithelial linings are made to remove all the crap we breath in and swallow it or sneeze it cough it out. Some pathogens can take advantage of our own method (coughing, sneezing, giving off fluid) of riding ourselves of very small debri.

There seems to be two phases to this disease
Phase 1: onset of symptoms, early viral replication
Phase 2: shortness of breath, require hospitalization
There are therapeutics that should keep most people from advancing to phase 2.
Zinc + a zinc ionophore (HCQ or quercetin) should significantly slow viral replication.

Why the fck have people in the medical profession, especially in the OR, required to wear masks every time they enter?
Its like we are going through the smoking is bad or not argument all over again... People do not understand that pathogens can become airborne and drop, float a while, drop quickly...
Lay a petri dish with agar out for an hour and then close it and see what grows compared to one that is covered Try it with various types of coverings. Its not that hard to "see" understand we breath in all types of crap. Our noses and mouths and epithelial linings are made to remove all the crap we breath in and swallow it or sneeze it cough it out. Some pathogens can take advantage of our own method (coughing, sneezing, giving off fluid) of riding ourselves of very small debri.
fucks sake this is so ridiculous as to be comical... We have descended back into the dark ages of spirits and witchcraft.

There seems to be two phases to this disease
Phase 1: onset of symptoms, early viral replication
Phase 2: shortness of breath, require hospitalization
There are therapeutics that should keep most people from advancing to phase 2.
Zinc + a zinc ionophore (HCQ or quercetin) should significantly slow viral replication.
Don't know why we don't push this more.
Oh well, I got my supply.

Why show daily deaths when it's obvious by the pattern they are not being reported completely on the weekends even though the days are still be counted? Then the numbers are tallied in the following week/s. A 7 day moving average is a better indicator. The chart should be called "daily deaths reported" instead of "daily deaths".

Allergies: Scientists have noted children with asthma and allergies surprisingly don't seem to be at high risk of developing serious cases of COVID-19. One theory is that those children have a reduced number of ACE2 receptors, the protein the virus latches onto before replicating inside the body. Without those receptors, the virus' chance of causing damage could decrease, meaning allergies may offer protection in this case.
Masks: Masks are discussed as a preventative measure, but they may contribute to more mild infections, as well. The most direct evidence of this theory is a comparison of two cruise ships. On the Diamond Princess, where masks weren't used, 47 percent of the positive cases were asymptomatic, whereas an Antarctic-bound Argentine cruise ship that had a similar outbreak, but provided masks to all passengers and crew, saw an 81 percent asymptomatic rate.

No shit. It just overlays. You're still pushing panic porn over daily deaths when in reality the daily deaths aren't as high as these "record deaths" utterances indicate. Don't pretend it's the same thing, it's not. The total deaths are the same, and to take it to the extreme to prove a point, imagine all deaths from the year reported in one week as daily deaths.. WOW!
By the way, countries that barely test but have a high percentage of positives aren't being honest. These are the percentages of total tests that resulted in cases.... sorted by country. There were 3 that were above 100 so they obviously aren't reporting correctly. You can see the "normal" testing regimen vs reporting in some of the more developed nations, but those nations with historically restrictive governments, who protect their leaders through censorship and denial, those are quite obvious too. Another interesting stat is the number of tests per 1M pop, since countries like Japan have tested such a small percentage of their total population and yet somehow have a positive rate close to Spain and France. Are they just better at testing?

And besides, we tolerate thousands of non-contagious preventable deaths per year for dangerous work conditions, shootings and driving your car. What's a half millon more deaths in 12 months?
Just a statistic.
You don't seem to have a problem ignoring it in certain states, or in other countries you might use to compare the US to. You just seem to want to focus on excess deaths when it suits you. I'm all for proper toting of the ciphers as long as it's across the board. With NY having 25K excess deaths, there was damn near nary a peep about it but shit was all in the bed around Texas' relatively low excess deaths. It's all about scoring political talking points. It has nothing to do with science.
there wasn't. the numbers from 2018 aren't comparable to 2020
There were excess deaths.

No shit. It just overlays. You're still pushing panic porn over daily deaths when in reality the daily deaths aren't as high as these "record deaths" utterances indicate. Don't pretend it's the same thing, it's not. The total deaths are the same, and to take it to the extreme to prove a point, imagine all deaths from the year reported in one week as daily deaths.. WOW!
you specifically asked for the 7 day moving average :rollin
Why show daily deaths when it's obvious by the pattern they are not being reported completely on the weekends even though the days are still be counted? Then the numbers are tallied in the following week/s. A 7 day moving average is a better indicator. The chart should be called "daily deaths reported" instead of "daily deaths". It's misleading but for plenty on the left, that's ok since it confirms what you think you already knew.
now that you dont like that the 7 day moving average doesnt change the narrative, you're going full reeee

There were excess deaths.
yes the flu is factored into the "expected death" models. because the flu is expected
but 2018 ended up being one of the worst flu seasons in decades. hence there were more deaths than expected (aka excess)

COVID-19 compared to past flu pandemics:
After much back and forth in the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic, a consensus is emerging (https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-deadly-is-covid-19-researchers-are-getting-closer-to-an-answer-11595323801) that the overall risk of dying for those infected with the disease — at least so far, in a population with an age distribution roughly similar to that of the U.S. or Europe — is about 6 or 7 in 1,000. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention upwardly revised its “best estimate” (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html#table-1) of the fatality rate in July to 0.65% from 0.26% (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/06/05/fact-check-cdc-estimates-covid-19-death-rate-0-26/5269331002/). An occasionally updated “meta-analysis” (https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.03.20089854v4) by Australian researchers Gideon Meyerowitz-Katz and Lea Merone of all relevant studies on the disease has it at 0.68%.https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-08-06/revisiting-how-covid-19-ranks-with-seasonal-flu-and-1918-pandemic

US Has Now Seen 200,000 More Deaths Than In Previous Years
More than 200,000 deaths have occurred in the U.S. in 2020 than would have been expected according to trends from previous years,
The figure encompasses all deaths that have occurred since March 15, including the roughly 162,000 found to have died of COVID-19 since the pandemic began in the United States.
But the 200,000 count is more than 50,000 deaths higher than the toll of those who died due to identified cases of COVID-19,
suggesting that far more have passed away either from the illness or from the disruption associated with the pandemic.

More Than 200,000
this is epidemiologists’ and population statisticians’ way of looking at
the total number of fatalities for all causes across society and
comparing it to baseline trends in recent years.
a new report based on CDC-collected data (https://talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/us-now-has-now-seen-200000-more-deaths-than-in-previous-years-cdc-estimates-show) which shows that the US has seen more than 200,000 fatalities normal so far this year.

Nurses and doctors are not so easily replaced.
WTF don't we have a national strategy to get health care workers the PPE they need to fight COVID-19?
As coronavirus cases surge — and dire shortages of lifesaving protective gear like N95 masks, gowns and gloves persist — the nation’s health care workers are again facing life-threatening conditions in Southern and Western states.
Through crowdsourcing and reports from colleagues, social media, online obituaries, workers unions and local media, Lost on the Frontline reporters have identified 922 health care workers who reportedly died of COVID-19 and its complications.https://khn.org/news/exclusive-over-900-health-workers-have-died-of-covid-19-and-the-toll-is-rising/

Bad leadership makes public emergencies worse. Treating COVID-19 as if it were a PR problem has turned out to be bad for business too.
The major economies of the euro area have been rebounding from the recession caused by the Covid-19 pandemic (https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2020-coronavirus-cases-world-map/) at a faster pace than the U.S.’s, according to indexes developed by Bloomberg’s economists using high-frequency data such as demand for electricity and usage of public transportation. That’s a departure from a decades-long trend in which the economy of the euro area has largely underperformed that of the U.S. The recent divergence has led to euro gains against the dollar (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-07-31/world-currencies-revel-in-cruelest-month-for-dollar-since-2010). European stocks are also performing better than American equities. Because the U.S. hasn’t been as successful at controlling the coronavirus spread or protecting jobs and incomes, the recovery is showing signs of stalling (https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/recovery-tracker/) stateside.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-08-07/the-coronavirus-pandemic-has-the-euro-area-and-u-s-economies-trading-places

It takes a special kind of stupid to have your political views interfere with the understanding that "deadly disease will kill people"
Like the deadly disease will only kill people when it is convenient for your worldview, or magically not spread because of your worldview.
That is some factless, flawed reasoning, IMO.
Seriously, TSA what did you think was going to happen when states reopened and people stopped taking basic precautions against a communicable disease?
