the White House team embraced the IHME model which initially predicted about 60k deaths and once we crossed that mark a whole bunch of people started talking like everything was over with, plus a lot of the anti quarantine protesters waved guns around

Don't forget companies and small business owner tyrants wanting to have the power to force people to return back to work.

yeah that's been a steady pressure though, the big thing that was like a switch being thrown was that IHME 60k mark.

there was a coordinated far right campaign to reopen starting in mid April

trump was supposed to issue a national order to reopen that coincided with the first waves of chud rallies but he chickened out when Cuomo laughed at him

but the rallies still happened and Georgia etc opened early even tho trump didn’t do an order

There has not been a single case or death once we hit 100k. Corona was satiated and left forever.

lmao i just noticed that chart has a note at the bottom saying the Stage 2 open isn't til May 18 for Cass County.

Cass County had +900 cases last Monday because there's a meat packing plant and everyone is getting sick. A whole 2 extra weeks of half-hearted quarantines for them!

Are people always this naive?

The plan was never to give money to workers by giving it to businesses, they just said that was the plan when they knew all along it would be pocketed by grifters.

i'm not saying there will be consequences for coyote ugly or whoever, but the ppp loans everyone was scrambling for are not forgivable if you lay your employees off.

Perhaps already addressed, but they are reporting using the U071 ICD-10 code only, which is the most recent Coronavirus specific code, yet only one Coronavirus code of several.

Thank you for pointing this out, I missed that in the footnotes.

Yeah people are really dumb to think this will be a V-shaped recovery

-Mass layoffs and furloughs mean people have less discretionary spending. Even people who are still
working will probably cut back due realizing it's a economic depression and they might be next

-People (except for dumb Chuds) will avoid things like sit down restaurants and gyms even when they do re-open

-Many of restaurant places I talked with in the ORLO area don't see any benefit to opening back up, lots of risk for the whole restaurant staff and don't think they will get lots
of sit-down business interest in the current pandemic.
