my mom (less chud and more tradcath), who has done an exemplary job of staying home and keeping safe, is freaked out about phone tracking for contact tracing. as in, 'will actively stop using her cell phone if the state (PA) starts accessing that data'

i feel like that's a very common sentiment. privacy is going to reign supreme and we will never be able to isolate new cases.

It's weird how people have been fine with their phones surveiling their every move to show them better ads, but the instant we try to use that surveillance for an actual public good suddenly it's a step too far.

lol there is actually a little bit of truth to the fact that if we found a vaccine tomorrow, magically got everyone vaccinated, and literally no one could get corona anymore, and then got out in the world, there would be a small bump in other diseases as everyone shares new pathogens all at once. Going to be about 40,000x less deadly than covid though

Me, I'm just worried about those hot dogs I thawed out last week and have been in the fridge and I ate one today and the aftertaste was a little gross and now I probably have listeria gently caress

reminder that the second Spanish flu wave mutated and started wiping out 20-40 year olds

Was it a mutation or better data? The first wave happened when all the 20-40 year old men were up to their necks in poo poo and mud, and the military had, say, a vested interest in not reporting their deaths publicly.

Meh, we never had a huge spike after Easter. There will be some weddings that are superspreader events but they'll get lost in the noise of some churches/gyms/restaurants spreading it. I don't think we're gonna drop but this will cook along all summer while most people work from home, sports and concerts are canceled, and school is out of session. This fall as more offices back fill up, kids go back to school, and we have football games... Then shits gonna get wild.

What are you talking about? If you search "coronavirus Easter" you'll find plenty of articles discussing local and regional Easter spikes around the country. The only reason there wasn't a nationwide spike was because most places still had social distancing orders.

I mean it will probably cook over 4-6 weeks because that's how long secondary and tertiary cases will take to appear but lol if you don't think poo poo's going to be popping by the 4th.

Yeah we've hit 100k about 2 weeks ago most likely.

And the bump we get when we're able to get actual numbers after the three day weekend is going to probably get us to around 103,000 in the undercount

If anyone guessed that a month ago they must be a loving genius

I guessed 120k dead by june 1st and while that obviously won't be the reported number (somewhere between 104-108k) I still feel good about that actually being the number of people who will have died from covid by then

Cooking isn't that hard, they just miss having someone to boss around, and probably don't tip because the waitress has a visible tattoo.

tbh if the state opened back up on may 4th youd expect some pretty big spikes by the 14th-20th and the trend is still plateau/slow decline. if nothing else i think this virus has turned out to be somewhat impossible to really predict.

i think now we're going to start seeing the big superspreader events though which seems more and more how corona spreads.

Just because a state opens bavk up doesn't mean people go back out. Social events provide an excuse tho. Let's do this.
