Covid is the most important issue out there for most voting in record numbers...yet super spreader Trump still won't wear a mask with 225K plus dead and rapidly rising numbers with no Coronavirus plan in sight!?
he says, "covid, covid, covid...that's all you hear about... it'll be gone on November 4th...."
These countries are either much poorer (with worse infrastructures) or much more densely populated.
UK has 432 people per m2, but the US has 36 people per m2. However, the US still has more deaths by ratio.
And look where deaths were highest. NYC has 26,403 people per sq. mi. and NJ has 1,195 people per square mile. What happens to the US death rate per million if you leave out NJ and NYC?
That's why #FilmYourHospital is so important. If you look at most hospitals, their waiting rooms, Covid wards, and parking lots are barely half full. It shows what the MSM hides.
Well that's a useless comment. Not all hospitals are going to be full.
Yawn. hospitalizations are now going up, deaths lag hospitalizations. The data shows that over and over. Its like hopping out of a airplane and saying "Oh this isnt so bad".
I wish they would just give the numbers of who is hospitalized and number of deaths, not everyone is hospitalized or dies from the virus.
NC seems to do a decent job of the numbers, especially since they finally started providing demographics of the new hospitalizations. We've got 90%+ of hospitals reporting (97% did yesterday).
total hospitalized for Covid: 1,200
Daily Suspected Admissions: 290
Daily Positive Admissions: 150. Which is odd....only about half the admissions turn out positive?
Current ICU Patients: 340
Empty ICU Beds: 490 (so, Covid need could double and there are still beds)
% of Admissions age 60+: 60% (and it's consistently this or more)
% of deaths 65+: still 82%
I bet the age stats are similar all across the country.
the government can't secured the border and who and what enters here and can't control the deaths of overdoses but Biden will control an invisible virus in the air? LMAO! The joke of the year!
Remember when we saw that tiny little spike in March that seemed so big at the time... in 6 months daily new cases might be 6 million and make this look like nothing. We need to infect around 33-50% of the world population which is 2.5-3.8 billion people give or take. Assuming 10% of them actually get tested when they feel symptoms that's 250 - 380 million people. Right now we are at 46 million people. Just getting started.
I'm assuming more than 10% will get tested though given loss of sense of smell/taste seems to be a predominant symptom. I'm not averse to wearing masks in lieu of shutting everything down, but that's it. Winter is coming in the northern hemisphere. It's coming. Get ready.
You are welcome to get infected as much as you want. I have absolutely no intention to.
No. IFR is not static. You have to consider the IFR was very high in the first few months. It is far lower now.
Nursing homes were overrun. Treatments were nascent. Ventilator overuse was killing people.
COVID 19 Projections (Youyang Gu’s) were remarkably close for a model until he stopped it, and he estimated about 53 million total infected as of early October.
Yes, it's lower now , you should've been more specific then. Treatments are better, and on average much younger crowd is infected.
Covid-projections, was way too high in terms of total/currently/newly infected, imo. I'm still not sure how that was that estimated. Pretty much all studies, in various areas have shown way lower exposure rates. UT Southwestern (Dallas) survey for Dallas county is currently at 5%.
Don't remember what Covid projections was exactly, but it was much much higher.
