But why water? Do they think the water pumps are gonna get sick?

gay picnic defence posted:Lol no wonder people over there are making GBS threads themselves over this thing That and people have very little trust in the government to handle it correctly or transparently. Our president now thinks it's a hoax and all CDC communication has to pass through Mike Pence first. Furthermore, it's clear their highest concern is making sure the magic stock market numbers go up, rather than preventing or mitigating an epidemic, so they could shy away from solutions out of fear of triggering more selling.

I'm in Ohio, nobody seems to be pillaging the stores yet. Probably because at least 40% of the people here take Trump's word as gold and think this is a hoax. Once they panic it will be a Chinese super weapon.

Bape Culture posted:It’s that cykostine storm(?) thing everyone goes on about isn’t it? I don't think I've heard anything about this virus causing cytokine storm. In fact I think that would cause the opposite kind of people to die, as cytokine storm makes the virus much more deadly for people with healthy immune systems.

Munin posted:Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the US deaths are currently under-counted, not due to any conspiracy, simply because they are not being noticed. Yeah I mentioned this earlier, but our flu season spiking around the time this would have entered the US really could be masking some deaths especially considering pneumonia tends the be the fatal complication with both.

Beachcomber posted:Can't determine if this is reliable or not, but my wife got a news alert that says a doctor in Italy says they're not putting anyone over 60 on respiratory equipment anymore. This is different than the UK thing a few days ago. That's similar to what we heard weeks ago that in hard hit hospitals they are triaging people over 65 or with multiple serious comorbidities who need ventilators as expected and basically leaving them to die.

FlamingLiberal posted:Those people in Lansing were just the typical MAGA CHUDS. If it's just random people then I will be concerned. But polling suggests that the majority of people are taking this seriously and understand why we are doing quarantines/lockdowns. For what it's worth, the worst fights I've seen on Facebook is on pro-lockdown posts by people who are usually MAGA chuds. The other chuds just launch an all out assault, and the less crazy ones waded right into the fight against them. That usually unbreakable wall of fantasy broke for a lot of them. So I genuinely believe that there is solid majority support of the lockdown. Part of the problem is that it seems like it's made the hardened ones support it even less. In a way it's nice to see them seeing their own bullshit unmasked against them in those fights. They seemed surprised that the echo chamber they lived in could suddenly turn against them so violently.

Rutibex posted:its a matter of reporting, not actually deaths. people in china/italy/USA are just dying at home of "pneumonia" and not being counted Yeah, from what I could figure yesterday, using data up to 2 weeks old, we're over double the pneumonia deaths expected by this time of year. That's excluding the covid-19 related ones. The dumbest way this could end up would be idiots saying "What's the big deal? We noticed nobody was dying, ended the shutdown and still only 50k died. Geez stuff like pneumonia killed 20 times that in 2020, get a clue!" Edit: even worse, maybe they find a way to blame the deaths on the shutdown. Like using extreme old person logic that all those people died of pneumonia because they didn't get enough fresh air because of quarantine. wilderthanmild fucked around with this message at 15:31 on Apr 16, 2020 |

Nurge posted:The problem is you can't keep people doing this for that long. People are literally going crazy because they're not used to being alone. Like a year is pushing it. Yeah this would likely require a massive change in the way people live. On the social front, a lot of people are going to go insane. On the economic front, governments would have to almost go full on Communist to not starve their populations. Then in places like the US you have a swathes of people who would want to shoot at the government about that, which is tons of fun. The thing that scares me the most here is that over time the idea of "getting it over with" may become more and more popular. Especially with politicians. The problem is, that is largely based on the idea that this would be like the flu, where it spreads and kills really bad for a year or so, then becomes endemic and becomes more mild. What I'd be worried about is that assumption being wrong and us ending up with an endemic disease with a mortality rate anywhere from 1 to 5%. Basically decimating humanity until we develop a vaccine or rapid cure.

Mithaldu posted:While i've argued the same before when some people were claiming Wuhan had 40 000 covid deaths, it also needs to be kept in mind that "everyone stays home" also means the data gets muddled by certain types of other deaths being reduced. This. Last I looked, overall deaths were only at 88% of what we expect. Pneumonia deaths, that totally aren't covid-19 no no no, were up over 200% from where you'd expect from what I could tell from the CDCs own stats.

Jeza posted:I'm sure there is some useful analysis out there, but it's very difficult to gain useful insight by comparing year on year flu deaths. 200% increase is honestly nothing when it comes to flu. Some years have 2,000%+ more fatalities than the last. In the UK, last year was extremely mild with sub 2000 deaths. In 2014/15 it was almost 30,000. This was pneumonia deaths, of which the same CDC stats said only around ~5k of the now 45k pneumonia deaths were flu. Additionally the stats included only ~5k coronavirus deaths. So we have almost a year's worth of pneumonia deaths, even if you exclude the flu ones and covid deaths. In a normal year you'd expect to be around 15k to 20k, and that's assuming an even larger share than normal for January Thru March. I'm not necessarily saying there is a cover up mind you, but there really might be something like 5 to 10k deaths mislabeled as pneumonia for all kinds of reasons. It's also worth noting that these stats are up to 14 days old and that number of pneumonia deaths seems to be rising about 1000 per day for the last few days. So the current number could be significantly higher. I'm not sure if we could use these numbers that well now, but in the future, pneumonia deaths might be a good category of you were trying to get an estimate of undercount. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/COVID19/index.htm

CarlosTheDwarf posted:Australia has tested almost 500,000 and only had a confirmation rate of about 1.5%. The mortality rate for those was about 1%. I'd still say that the mortality rate for this is much higher than the flu. That 1%ish mortality also matches the cruise ship results and the South Korea results where they tested everyone with any contact at all to an infected person.

One of the dumbest things is that whenever I see someone saying what they think should open up, it's whatever is directly inconveniencing them. We're they planning on getting Lasik? Oh then eye doctors! Do they hate coloring their hair at home! Hair dressers! Do they go out to eat a lot? Restaurants should be first! Of course if they work in any of those. That's what should be first. Also, Ohio seems to still be going forward with opening May 1. Nice going from arguably one of the best responses to the worst. The governor is still nebulous on what that means, but from his remarks I feel like it's starting by lifting the stay at home order.
