We don’t test everyone for everything, every day. This^^We’ve known this for quite awhile with Coronavirus. There are so many asymptomatic cases, and so few people actually seeking tests now that the “ official” case count is a fraction of actual cases. We also know the death count has been vastly overcounted due to hospital reimbursements and government directives. I wonder how many times Tibs has gotten tested lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said that in NC only about 10% of the people were wearing masks. Stupid people. This is nowhere near over. I'll be wearing a mash for several more months to protect my mother. I agree with masks, distance, sanitizer until we have herd immunity. But the govt can't force it too much, some people just need to be stupid.

Oh, trust me, no one thinks of you as smart. Let alone the smartest. But it takes stupidity to a new level to ask a question about a document you yourself can read. The fact you're afraid to read it, because it's "false" shows you're even dumber than you give yourself credit for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Gov’s will require these. Restaurants/ bars should do distancing and disinfect often . That’s it. Went to Ohio this weekend , they allowed patio dining. Servers wore masks, but not customers. It was great. No one needs to dine in at a restaurant or go to a bar. I’d sign a waiver before I’d wear that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it save them a lot of time and money in development to realize the same thing can be achieved, with the same amount of risk, by just lifting your mask when you want to put food in your mouth? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats I missing? 1 hour ago, Tiberius said: So you admit there are more cases than the official count is stating, right? Prolly by a factor of 20-50X according to many studies. Which is a good thing as it means that an overwhelming number of people that contract the virus will not die from it..and that is awesome news all the way around i would think 1 hour ago, Warren Zevon said: Unfortunately her firing makes that a reality. how do you know why she was fired? Please point me to where it states that in the article. She writes an email to her colleagues saying that was the case, , but then refuses comment to the paper. What if she was fired for cause, let's say failing a drug test or embezzlement or a myriad of other reasons, and just wanted to save face. 45 minutes ago, Buffalo Timmy said: I agree with masks, distance, sanitizer until we have herd immunity.

The mask is the equivalent of making someone wear a jacket at a nice restaurant, as a private company it can choose to force the point and lose out on some sales while gaining others. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best metric there is to gauge Virus infection prevalency within a community is the positive test rate. Hospitalization is an important metric to gauge whether or the hospital systems are stressed. Two different metrics that point to two different conclusions. The positive test rate is the best leading indicator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once there is adequate testing, the % positive means less because you're presumably catching more of the cases in the total positive results. Not sure where we are on the curve of when the pos % declining meant a lot to it meaning less but we are someplace on that continuum right now.
