So was coronavirus allowed to run rampant to do the following things: -Eliminate voter bases for those opposed to Trump (aka, kill democrat voters) -Lower social security costs -Lower medical costs for people on medicare/medicaid -Eradicate the poor/disenfranchised ? Trump reminds me a lot of Prince Prospero from "The Masque of the Red Death" Oh, I thought of another one: -Allow Trump to be president during a time of crisis, almost guaranteeing his re-election vandalism fucked around with this message at 23:14 on May 27, 2020 |

Facebook Aunt posted:Great news everyone! One of my right wing relatives was passing around a list of 'facts' that included info the CDC recently released a new estimate that the Infection Fatality Rate is just 0.2% If that research is right and the CFR is actually 0.2% that is amazing news. At the start of this we feared it was double if not ten times that. Doesn't mean everyone shouldn't be wearing a mask and social distancing for the next months though. Obviously.

That may be the case right now and that may be who is getting infected currently. It remains to be seen how bad the surge will be in a week or two after everyone has treated it like its all over. However a majority of the deaths that have occurred happened in New York, a very blue state (city). vandalism fucked around with this message at 23:47 on May 27, 2020 |

Both my (barely) silent generation parents ate in sit down restaurants this week. At least with my mom it was an excellent seafood place on the coast, my dumb rear end dad risked death to eat some mediocre fish and chips in SW Colorado.

Prospero tried to hide from and distract himself from the plague. Trump is trying to coerce people to bring the plague to him because he needs the dopamine rush of his cheering lackeys. I see your point in these differences. Here is my thinking with a little expense. Prospero locked himself away. Trump has put himself increasingly on twitter as a bastion, an echo chamber of his own words. The social media sphere functions as the waltzers: an extension and manifestation of him who realize their mortality when the clock strikes, yet continue to dance. The prince's isolation worked because he kept out the masses. Trump will still just be on podium, well away from any real chance of infection. His wealth is essentially his isolation: mar a lago, air force one, chloroquinine. It all functions in the same way as prospero's more direct, heavy handed approach: life for the wealthy 1%, suffering for the rest. Trump is also trying to distract himself with Obamagate and other fruitless efforts. The next will be the China/Hong Kong issues. I understand the points where you differ in opinion and agree that it might not be 100% parallel down to the letter. I think the big picture still fits.

I had a covid test done last week and I did have flu symptoms. They basically said to treat it as though I did have it, even if the test came back negative. The test came back negative so... good for me? I don't have symptoms anymore (I think it may have just been allergic reaction), but I'm still isolating for 15 days after no symptoms, as they recommended.

Blitter posted:0.2% CFR is a ridiculous number and just double that of the regular flu. No one in the world with any kind of widespread infection is going to see a number that low. To expand upon this, the CFR in South Korea is 2.4%. South Korea actually had a large outbreak, did the whole mass testing and contact tracing thing well, and successfully bottled the thing up entirely without overwhelming their health care system - so their numbers should show a reasonably complete picture. 0.2% is absurdly low - you only see a CFR that low in super low risk age bands like 20's-30's.

I stopped using Worldometer a while ago out of question over whether they're actually legit. They sound more like an aggregator website than anything. CNN's been calling them out because nobody really knows who owns it, where their data comes from or whether they really do have "an international team of developers, researchers, and volunteers" as they claim they have. Also, Johns Hopkins University isn't trusting them anymore and their About page is outdated. Tuxide fucked around with this message at 05:43 on May 28, 2020 |
