Blasio's been real quiet after the school-closure anouncement, imo; Cuomo seems to be the mayor now.

it means nothing, there's a lot of noise in these numbers

the 150k dead total was a ridiculously optimistic prediction based on the assumption that we'd do a full lockdown everywhere, which didn't happen

the realistic prediction is 3 million dead

is 3 million from the imperial college paper or elsewhere?

Coronavirus: UK faces cardboard shortage due to crisis

quote:

The UK could be hit by a national cardboard shortage as more and more local councils suspend their regular recycling collections owing to pressures caused by the coronavirus outbreak, the industry’s trade body has warned.

The Recycling Association said it has huge concerns about a looming European and even worldwide shortage of fibre – used paper and cardboard – which is used to manufacture millions of cardboard boxes essential for food and medical supplies distribution.

...

With home deliveries skyrocketing, much of the fibre will end up in general household bins, which means it will be incinerated or go into landfill, the The Recycling Association (TRA) warns. Valuable quantities of fibre have also been lost from major high street retailers such as McDonald’s, Primark, John Lewis, Argos and B&Q after non-essential businesses were told to close.

Simon Ellin, chief executive of the TRA, said: “Of huge concern to us is the signs that Europe is already becoming short of fibre with which to make cardboard boxes. Food and medical supplies all move by cardboard box and if we can’t make cardboard boxes, everything stops. If councils stop collecting recycling, and many are, all this fibre is burnt or goes to landfill and we will be short.”

...

Fibre recycling is a global market and materials flow across Europe and the world, but the lockdown means physical barriers are increasingly springing up to prevent this distribution. In Germany – the biggest European player – significant volumes of fibre come from Poland, but the Poland-Germany border is now shut. This has meant Germany is now seeking material from France and the UK.

I don't know how American victims can even report domestic violence because it's their husband cops who are beating them and they can't call the police.

no, it's just the ballpark of what you get when you multiply 330 million by X percent getting it and Y percent dying of it because icu beds aren't available, plugging in various reasonable numbers for X and Y

Is the reasoning in this article faulty, or is it just based on old data? They seem to be arguing that the 'real' mortality rate of covid is much higher than what the media is reporting.

I wonder what's going to be the thing that breaks me in all of this: my empathy for the patients and hospital staff during this outbreak, the slowly dawning realization that family/friends/coworkers could get the roni and die, the eventual future where this pandemic ends and it gets revised by the media as 'not a big deal', or getting the roni.

Bets on getting the roni.
