I'm actually shocked we haven't seen insane spread here in the great lakes, we've been essentially complete biden since may 2020. (in-person) schools open next week so maybe that'll be the flint for the tinder, but like at the same time given how every bar and restaurant is packed all it would've taken is some plaguebearers from the south traveling here to ignite spread? what's holding delta up here?

yeah i really wonder about that too. maybe the alpha surge was a bit hotter there? I remember michigan was getting rocked in April. perhaps even the alpha immunity in the area helped hold back delta a bit

we at least have a national vaccine certificate that can be used to verify people rather than just taking their word but i highly doubt it'll be checked by roving picnic investigators

The number of new hospitalizations seems really low. A week ago the 7-day avg new US cases was ~145000, so naively you'd think there'd be more than 10000 new hospitalizations at this point. Need to look at some graphs.

spaceblancmange posted:

Those are actually remarkably bad numbers.

In what way? It's pretty clear that with delta you're going to give it to everyone in your household, so you'd expect those cases and because everyone is already isolating the spread is going to be limited to the number if people in the household. I don't know if we've actually seen a single case of non-household transmission since lockdown pop up yet, the vast majority of locations of interest are from pre-lockdown and as far as I know all of the current non-family transmission cases have taken place prior to lockdown.

So we'd expect to have caught almost all of the pre-lockdown infection cases pretty soon and then there will be a gradual reduction in new cases as all of the post-lockdown family transmissions are detected. Sewerage testing across the extent of the country that can be tested has so far only been popping positive in areas with known cases so it doesn't seem like there have been any major clusters or locations missed either.

you can't get more hospitalizations if the hospitals are full
