This is the beginning of the propaganda effort to "open" on May 1st.

"the governor taking away the jobs of over 1 million residents, then not allowing many of those residents to file for jobless benefits"

lol, what? because the underfunded unemployment office can't handle a million people in a week? drat governor.

The UK is doing something incredibly wrong :stare:

They have 98k cases vs Spain's 178k and Italy's 165k, but they already have almost 13,000 deaths where the latter two have 18,700 and 21,600 respectively.

Third highest death count today too, after USA (2336) and France (1438). 200 ahead of Italy and 300 ahead of Spain.

Turkey has a surprisingly low amount of deaths despite being in the top 5 for daily new cases.

Maybe they just have much more accurate/honest COVID death reporting thanks to the NHS?

Turkey is a fascist state and probably suppressing real numbers? Idk that's just a wild anti-Erdogan guess.

One possibility is that they may have a more accurate count of the deaths linked to COVID-19. There was a big spike in unattributed deaths in Italy that were never officially included on the count.

I just misread that there were 2000 cases in care homes. It is actually cases in 2000 care homes.

It's interesting looking at the countries with high disparities between total cases/1 million and total deaths/1 million.

A lot of them are the eastern European countries twoday has been talking about for weeks now. Germany, Austria, Norway... some weird outliers here like Portugal and Ireland.

One of the biggest disparities is Israel with 1444/15. To contextualize Spain has a ratio of 3799/400 and the USA has 1937/86. Worldwide cases/deaths is 266/17 and China is 57/2.

cases don't loving matter and they never should have, all that matters is available vents, icus and deaths. the media has absolutely dropped the ball on this poo poo and its insane. nyc is already at more than double historical death average and that's with the completely useless pseudo lockdwon. we could've stopped this with a god drat 2 week national lockdown a while back and instead we're gonna have 50% of people thrown out of their homes. im starting to go an insane rage rant gently caress

smoking does cause lung damage so that would put you in a risk group, it’s just common sense

right

the data I've seen has suggested smokers are less likely to get sick but more likely to have worse outcomes when they do get sick, so I was curious whether that's been contradicted by newer data, or if this is a case of conventional wisdom saying something should be so, and not data showing that it is so

if that makes sense

One interesting factor here could be that nicotine is what’s helpful, and if someone stops smoking because they are sick or in the hospital, this effect would fade as the nicotine leaves their body, and then they are just left with lovely damaged lungs and a respiratory infection

We hung out on the boat after work today in the marina, it was pretty nice. Had a couple of beers

I suggest all mc donalds workers use their stimulus checks to go out and also buy a boat. You don't need to leave the marina to enjoy it. Leaving it in the marina means less maintenance too.

Golfing is dumb you have to talk to a cashier to go golfing

Been watching the IHME for a few days. Took a couple screenshots after the last two model updates because there's ~zero~ backwards-looking validation going on.

Their model is a loving joke and it does everyone a disservice that they made such a slick, confidence-inspiring interface with nice smooth lines.



While posting this I noticed today's numbers came out. 153 deaths.
