Yeah, this thing’s an economy crasher, so it’s hard to overstate the cost of an extra month or two of restrictions vs wasted production time. I was going through my ballot guides yesterday and all these measures involving throwing around hundreds of millions of dollars kept having to have the disclaimer that it’s less than 1% of the states budget.

If each vaccine costs $1 billion to get to production stages And we spent what three trillion on bailing out the economy, probably 5 by next summer, 7 by next winter How many vaccines can you develop for a trillion dollars, if you can get everyone who wants to be, vaccinated by summer and break even

There's a cold around, several people in my life have it, a couple have been tested for covid and came back negative. Now I've got a dry cough and a little post-nasal drip action. It's just a cold... or is it??? Hope everyone else is having a good cold/flu season

We did so well in the spring that basically everybody expected we would be able to handle the second wave far more limited measures than back then. Welp. Also there were "midterm" elections just as the second wave was beginning to ramp up, so the government didn't want to piss people off by closing down schools or limiting social life too much.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/coronavirus-latest-updates-10-20-2020-11603183896 Going into winter with 60-70k daily cases is.. Going to be rough. Seems like we're two weeks behind the surges in Europe right now where they are starting to lock down again. Here, the president told a rally yesterday he's bored of covid news and that it's a conspiracy by "the dumb bastards" at CNN to cover it all the time to get people not to vote (what).. Then made fun of the expert the public trusts over him for how he threw a baseball. So we're pretty hosed, hope they count newly deceased votes

I did it because the PEOPLE needed me. But being president is for losers, big losers, so I was happy to leave. I accomplished everything I needed to do to make america great again, and now I can leave this job to the losers. I defeated GINA, I defeated COVID, and now I'm going to go do great, many great things."

pro starcraft loser posted:Is that really correct?? Even at the height of this my state was at like...18. Mostly just a factor of population. Until a virus has effectively 'run its course', per capita cases are going to swing widely from state to state. If the major metropolis in North/South Dakota has an uncontrolled outbreak, its per capita statistics will rapidly ramp up compared to any national average.

pro starcraft loser posted:Is that really correct?? Even at the height of this my state was at like...18. Looks roughly correct to me. Both North and South Dakota's 7 day average was at ~700 cases yesterday according to worldometers.com and their populations are 760,000 and 880,000, which gives per capita rates of 92 and 79 per 100,000 residents. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ Jeza posted:Mostly just a factor of population.

Yep, and the per capita infection stats in North & South Dakota are now the highest in the entire country. A little higher than Florida and WAY higher than New York or California. North Dakota had about the same number of newly reported infections yesterday (and probably also today) as Arizona and Virginia, even though those states have about ten times the population.

It's this, there's no slow burn here either they are clean or it's going to look bad per capita since there's so few people in those states. almost all of ND's and SD's pop is in these 6 red spots
