Morbus posted:There is kind of a grey area between "infection completely cleared" and "suppressed to the point its not making me sick but can still be passed on". Flu, norovirus, most common colds, all remain contagious for often 1-2+ weeks after symptoms clear. Yeah it makes sense it would ramp up and ramp down like that and you only feel sick at the peak. I just always thought once you felt better it was gone. Welp!

Grizzled Patriarch posted:how much do we have to be fudging the death numbers to have more cases than china but 1/3 of the deaths? or is it still too early Death usually takes around two weeks, and during exponential growth, at least half the cases are at least as new as the doubling period (currently ~2.5 days). In fact the majority of cases haven't even reached the ~5 days to develop symptoms. When exponential growth stops (due to success of interventions or simple lack of hosts), deaths will start catching up like a goddamn freight train.

People who die untested don't count toward the number. Also, if some other condition is the direct cause of death, it doesn't count toward the number.

a god drat idiot posted:There is a three week lag between infection and death. You won't be tested immediately so say 2 weeks from positive ID to the end. is that really true? seems like most of the bad cases i've read about, including deaths, developed symptoms and then ended up at the hospital within a week or less.

Rah! posted:is that really true? Yes, it takes weeks: https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/who-china-joint-mission-on-covid-19-final-report.pdf quote:Using available preliminary data, the median time from onset to clinical recovery for mild cases is approximately 2 weeks and is3-6 weeks for patients with severe or critical disease. Preliminary data suggests that the time period from onset to the development ofsevere disease, including hypoxia,is 1 week. Among patients who have died, the time from symptom onset to outcome ranges from2-8 weeks.

someone was asking a few days ago if there were still minimum income requirements to get those checks. Yep! “(2) TAXPAYER DESCRIBED.—A taxpayer is described in this paragraph if the taxpayer— “(A) has qualifying income of at least $2,500, or “(B) has— “(i) net income tax liability which is greater than zero, and “(ii) gross income which is greater than the basic standard deduction. [...] e) Definitions.—For purposes of this section— “(1) QUALIFYING INCOME.—The term ‘qualifying income’ means— “(A) earned income, “(B) social security benefits (within the meaning of section 86(d)), and “(C) any compensation or pension received under chapter 11, chapter 13, or chapter 15 of title 38, United States Code.

USA isn't testing dead bodies, literally cancelling ordered tests once they die. Number can't go up if you don't check for it.

empty whippet box posted:the US is massively undercounting deaths Yep! they aren't testing presumptive cases who die before testing is done. So people who go in really sick directly on a ventilator, probably not tested. Dead in your bed? Not tested.

also because this is america there's a bunch of dead people who didn't go to the hospital because it would financially ruin them, and we won't find their bodies for weeks/months

Not tested. this isn't necessarily some conspiracy poo poo, at this point anyway, it's because we're still drastically short on tests so we need to save them for living people rather than classifying the dead

Reminder that we generally think there are probably as many as a million cases of COVID in the US right now. Testing is mostly about our expanding capability to test

Lambert posted:As far as I understand it, Italy allows for pretty liberal classification of Coronavirus deaths even without testing. Some places are definitely allowing for symptom diagnosis by a doctor, whatever the technical term for that is, rather than an actual COVID test for sure. I *think* some places in the US are allowing that?? Maybe not idk.
