Let's plug that into the graph and see how the 'cubic fit' curve that the WH released 6 hours ago holds up:




Hmmmmm, some slight issues with the fit there.



Edit: at this rate it'll also blow through the IHME's new graph :v:

346 deaths in PA today which is nuts

I was mildly skeptical of seeing that sort of daily death count other than the big 5 like NY and Michigan

So. Apparently I've lost my sense of taste and I don't mean because I'm wearing a bright yellow shirt that says I hate people but I can't taste anything and I told my husband about it and I guess I've been saying weird things like this XXX is bland or I need more spice after dousing something with cayenne pepper for 2 weeks. FML

I just noticed after making super sweet coffee and it tastes like water

I can still smell my cat's turd bombs so there's hope it's just something else. I really don't want to deal with this situation anymore :(

going back to work isn't even a conservative argument, not really. A true conservative would ask: how are we going to increase the GDP if millions of workers die? The argument that the 'weak' should die so the strong can thrive is fascism.

in the republican party system the chuds are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the fascists, who cull the weak to create a white ethnostate, and the capitalists, who kill for number. these are their stories.

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine in the US have started a clinical trial to assess tuberculosis vaccine, bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG), for its activity against Covid-19.

In addition to Baylor College, four other institutions have opened enrolment for the BCG vaccine trial.

BCG vaccination mitigates the rate of other infections, according to Baylor College infectious diseases medicine assistant professor Dr Andrew DiNardo.

Molecular evidence also shows that BCG alters the body’s responds to a pathogen. It was found to rearrange DNA organisation to facilitate expression of different genes.

The clinical trial will test the vaccine in healthcare workers who treat Covid-19 patients and are at high risk of exposure to the virus. The vaccine will be compared to placebo.

Participants will be tracked using a questionnaire on a smartphone every few days over six months.

The BCG vaccine was found to help trigger an immune response against yellow fever and influenza. DiNardo noted that the vaccine may lead to 30% to 50% improvement in immune response against a pathogen such as SARS-CoV-2.

Baylor College researchers are working with multidisciplinary teams at Texas A&M University, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and Harvard University.

DiNardo said: “It is a very well-known and safe vaccine available now that might be able to work as a buffer until a Covid-19 vaccine is developed, which could take 18 months.

“When a Covid-19 vaccine comes out, the BCG vaccine should be tested with it to see if it improves the efficacy.”

A separate team at Baylor College is conducting a trial to compare two BCG strains for bladder cancer treatment. BCG vaccination is also being tested for its ability to improve the immune response and outcomes in this patient population.
