Strep Vote posted:How can you be so loving dumb. Rich people fleeing cities are a crucial vector in every plague or pandemic. I'm in a fairly insulated community that has seen about 70 infections out of 24,000 people and rich assholes going to their country homes bring it here to our aging population. Stay out, fuckheads. The only way to stop them would be for local communities to present a credible threat of murdering them. Anything less doesn't scare people like that.

Another daily record. And now new cases will drop as the weekend comes and the story disappears from the news only to return again next week. The ebb and flow cadence of reporting new cases has been absolutely disastrous for public perception w/r/t the danger of the virus. If we were setting new daily records every day, it might scare people a little more. Instead the weekly drops make it tough for our goldfish-memory brains to stay aware of just how dire the situation really is.

Sorry, I was wrong. That was 1092 new cases per day, and that was yesterday. Still pretty good though! Snowglobe of Doom posted:Also since it was the UK press that was pushing the 'SA herd immunity' story there's almost certainly a racist undercurrent of "They got the virus under control? And we haven't? Well they must have done it by accident!" I fully agree with this. It's absolutely this.

Isn’t this still the first wave? Cases keep going up. Lockdown part 2? WTF, this is still part one. Call me in the spring after “wave four” and OMG the stores are out of everything again for the millionth time? My mom asked if we were thinking about hosting thanksgiving. For 30 people. Of course I said no. So I fully expect to see her posting a picture of her and the 27 other people we usually we for thanksgiving at my house, just without me and Mrs Mango.

The other trick was counting postal tests as being completed from the moment you posted them off, even though thousands of them never even got back to the testing labs.

And yet what? FLDOH daily publishes positivity rates for both all tests and tests without repeats, it’s the last two sections on page two of the report. They’ve been doing that all summer. And on top of that the article you linked says the COVID tracking project changed the numbers it uses once retesting got popular. It’s all a big mess and who knows what actual numbers are, but the original thing I replied to heavily implied Florida changed how it reports numbers very recently, and I’m pretty sure that’s not correct.

The article published yesterday says Florida just changed how it reports its data. I mean, the title is literally "Florida changes coronavirus data." Here's more: "Florida changes how it reports daily COVID data.": https://www.news4jax.com/news/local/2020/10/28/florida-changes-how-it-reports-daily-covid-data-is-it-more-accurate/ That said, I'm not sure whether it's a negative change.

That Jax article says the new way to report daily positivity is to weed out serial positives — and that calculation is already on their report (last thing on page two), and has been on that report every day all summer. What am I missing? Is it “this number buried on page two, which has always been there, isn’t the ‘reported number’”?
