I really love that the news is running with the whole 'the death count might not be as bad as predicted' angle when clearly the government is going undercount the number of deaths.

Didn't a fuckton of articles just get put out that said the opposite though.

this is a dumb take
nobody's pet cat is giving them this
dog walkers who aren't idiots and maintain social isolation aren't in more danger than they would be if they went out for a walk like people are encouraged to do

ppl arent "being encouraged to go on walks" in places with real responses tho, even italy banned running and poo poo, and 1 run every other day is a lot different than taking the whole family to let the dog piss and socialize with other dogs 5x daily out of boredom

also a lot of indoor/outdoor cats have multiple families they are in close contact with daily

my parents' cat died last night. was playing with toys, then just sort of fell over, twitched a few times and that was it.

they are so loving lonely today :(

that's the closest a cat gets to a good death though, no pain or whatever, your parents should focus on the good

because thats where healthdata has it at. i dont know their full methodology or anything

http://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america

I don't care enough to dig deep into the methodology, but a cursory reading suggests that he's comparing the track in other countries to the US track and forecasting from there.

On one hand, it's probably the only way to do it that isn't throwing darts at a board, but there's a decent argument that the US is loving up the response so bad that we might not be able to draw parallels.

On the other hand, loving up the response seems like it will just make the peak happen faster, so I'm not convinced that it's entirely wrong, even if that idea has some monstrous implications.

Learning from France and realising that testing drugs on North Africans was a bad for optics for some reason, the USA has decided to go a different way.

Just kidding, it was easier to keep the supplies on shore and most of the prisoners are going to be off African descent anyway so why bother adding to the logistics.

most cats aren't indoor/outdoor cats
if more than one person is going out to walk the dog then those people are doing it wrong

what percentage of people who wouldn't get infected do you think are getting infected because of pets? for me it's zero because this is a non-issue, presumably it's higher for you but how much higher?
