Full story from nyt As President Trump presses for states to reopen their economies, his administration is privately projecting a steady rise in the number of cases and deaths from coronavirus over the next several weeks, reaching about 3,000 daily deaths on June 1, according to an internal document obtained by The New York Times, nearly double from the current level of about 1,750. The projections, based on modeling by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and pulled together in chart form by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, forecast about 200,000 new cases each day by the end of the month, up from about 25,000 cases now. The numbers underscore a sobering reality: While the United States has been hunkered down for the past seven weeks, not much has changed. And the reopening to the economy will make matters worse. “There remains a large number of counties whose burden continues to grow,” the C.D.C. warned. The projections confirm the primary fear of public health experts: that a reopening of the economy will put the nation right back where it was in mid-March, when cases were rising so rapidly in some parts of the country that patients were dying on gurneys in hospital hallways with cases rising so rapidly that the health care system is overloaded. DOCUMENTS See the internal report. “While mitigation didn’t fail, I think it’s fair to say that it didn’t work as well as we expected,” Scott Gottlieb, Mr. Trump’s former commissioner of food and drugs, said Sunday on the CBS program Face the Nation. “We expected that we would start seeing more significant declines in new cases and deaths around the nation at this point. And we’re just not seeing that.” Subscribe to The Times On Sunday, Mr. Trump said deaths in the United States could reach 100,000, twice as many as he had forecast just two weeks ago. “We’re going to lose anywhere from 75, 80 to 100,000 people,” he said in a virtual town hall on Fox News. “That’s a horrible thing. We shouldn’t lose one person over this.” Mr. Gottlieb said Americans “may be facing the prospect that 20,000, 30,000 new cases a day diagnosed becomes the new normal.” Some states that have partially reopened are still seeing an increase in coronavirus cases, including Iowa, Minnesota, Tennessee and Texas, according to Times data. Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska and Arizona also are seeing an increase in cases and are planning on some kind of reopening soon. Alaska has also reopened and is seeing a small number of increasing cases. While the country has stabilized, it has not really improved, as shown by data collected by The Times. Case and death numbers remain stuck on a numbing, tragic plateau that is tilting only slightly downward. At least 1,000 people with the virus, and sometimes more than 2,000, have died every day for the last month. On a near-daily basis, at least 25,000 new cases of the virus are being identified across the country. And even as New York City, New Orleans and Detroit make gains, other urban centers, including Chicago and Los Angeles, are reporting steady growth in cases. The situation has devolved most dramatically in parts of rural America that were largely spared in the early stages of the pandemic. As food processing facilities and prisons have emerged as some of the country’s largest case clusters, the counties that include Logansport, Ind., South Sioux City, Neb., and Marion, Ohio, have surpassed New York City in cases per capita. Mr. Trump accused the Chinese government of making a “horrible mistake” in its virus response and of then orchestrating a cover-up that allowed the pathogen to spread around the world. “My opinion is they made a mistake. They tried to cover it, they tried to put it out. It’s like a fire,” Mr. Trump said on Sunday night during a virtual town hall on Fox News. “You know, it’s really like trying to put out a fire. They couldn’t put out the fire.” Advertisement Continue reading the main story China did eventually suppress the disease with a harsh lockdown, but public health experts have criticized Beijing for withholding information and acting too late. Mr. Trump, who has come under fierce criticism for his handling of the crisis, also issued the latest in a series of accusations from members of his administration laying blame on China for the creation and spread of the virus. “We’re going to be giving a very strong report as to exactly what we think happened,” Mr. Trump said. “And I think it will be very conclusive.” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was even more explicit, saying on Sunday that the coronavirus originated in a research laboratory in Wuhan, China, where the virus first appeared. That conflicts with the judgment of most virologists and of U.S. intelligence agencies, which say that the virus was “not man-made or genetically modified.” Speaking on the ABC program “This Week,” Mr. Pompeo, the former C.I.A. chief and one of the senior administration officials who is most hawkish on dealing with China, said that there was “enormous evidence” that the virus came from the lab but then declined to provide any details. He also said he agreed with the intelligence assessment. The theories are not mutually exclusive: Some officials who have examined the intelligence reports, which remain classified, say it is possible that an animal infected with the virus in the laboratory was destroyed and that a lab worker was accidentally infected in the process. But that is just one of many theories still being examined. China has previously denied the virus originated in a laboratory. The editor in chief of The Global Times, a nationalist tabloid controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, condemned the U.S. administration for making accusations without presenting evidence. “Don’t just say there’s enormous evidence, Pompeo should present them to the world,” the editor, Hu Xijin, wrote on Twitter. “By demanding to investigate Wuhan lab they are trying to create continuous controversy and focus, to fool the American public.” China’s state-run news agency Xinhua released an animated video featuring Lego-like figures representing the two countries mocking the United States response to the virus. It is not just the Trump administration that has been increasingly critical of China. The Times’s chief diplomatic correspondent for Europe, Steven Erlanger, reports that a backlash across the globe is building against Beijing for its initial mishandling of the crisis, creating a deeply polarizing battle of narratives and setting back China’s ambition to fill the leadership vacuum left by the United States.

Admiral Ray posted:nice. i've been thinking of driving out to one of the national forests in the hopes of it being somewhat empty but i dunno how realistic that is. worst thing would be to get there and there be 50 other yokels like me crowding round the trailhead. parking lots are closed but the overflow parking isn't which greatly limits the people that can be there make sure you have your NFS parking pass since it's like $30 for a yearly one and gently caress you for not supporting places where you're hiking also 50 other yokels is about right at the place where my gf and i go... which works out to crossing the path of like 5 people max over the course of 5 hours

I mean at this point we've basically just decided that everyone is going to get it and all we can hope for is that when we do either its mild or that by then they figure out a treatment more effective than the current 'hope for the best'. Even though this plan is disastrous for both lives and the economy. Opening poo poo back up isn't gonna get most people back out to restaurants or the gym because they realize those environments increase their risk and it isn't gonna get them spending money because everyone has either already lost thier job or is afraid of losing thier job soon.

If this is the case, and we're around 2k daily now, and the rise is steady, we'll probably have around 75k total May deaths, for a total of around 140,000 Thread predictions not looking too bad atm

Professional athletes tend to form the center of a web of financial support for family and friends, so that money goes quick. lol I half-assedly googled and the big number said 900k but that’s with 7 years. Ten years of destroying your mind and body for 400k lol I got a permanently hosed up neck and a decade of neurological issues and I only played 3 years in high school, don’t let your kids play contact sports jfc

mastershakeman posted:The whole thing is frustrating because it's useless guidance. Hell, no one even know what six feet away even is. But beyond that, the bus and restaurant studies showed that no one has a loving clue how this thing is spreading, and everyone should be considering every action they take as a risk yeah like don't loving assume anything about the virus and take all the precautions you can my wife had to go into work (retail) for "training" bc they've all been on catastrophe pay for a month and a half and they're planning on semi-reopening. it was all stupid bullshit... but i gave her an N95 and made a secondary cloth mask to cover it and more of her face, and helped give her a hairstyle that made the mask comfortable to wear + kept hair away from her face, and she wore a button up shirt instead of something she'd have to pull off over her head, shoes that were easy to slip off in the doorway, and we put her phone in a zippy bag along with a spare key and a spare mask in a separate bag, and put that inside of an easily hand-washable nylon drawstring bag because we don't have a washing machine in unit and she went to work and her coworkers are wearing poorly fitted cloth masks and touching them constantly and their phones and she was like  *washes hands again*then she came home, i opened the door, she got her shoes off, stripped in the entryway, put her clothes in a bag i had for her, and i took nylon her bag and stuff and washed it, she washed her hands and then i washed her cloth mask + glasses, put her N95 outside, washed my hands for the 20th time today, and she went to take a shower i do similar poo poo when i get groceries except i wipe down/wash all the groceries lmao the clothes will sit for 3+ days and even then i'll still handle them with gloves i made cloth masks for us as backups, and for stuff like checking the mail and taking out the trash, and i fit the elastic to her head size, so i understand it's hard when ppl are buying cloth masks online or having friends make them and they can't really custom fit, but geez and the manager was wearing one of the company-provided spandex masks and it was too narrow lmfao snoo has issued a correction as of 17:20 on May 4, 2020 |
