remigious posted:Hey guys I wasn’t sure where to ask this, but figured y’all may know: can you collect unemployment if you tell your job you are going to self isolate? It depends on the state and your condition Colorado lets you collect unemployment if you're in a vulnerable category and your workplace makes you interact with others. You can also collect if you live with vulnerable people and they won't make accommodations Tiny Timbs fucked around with this message at 05:54 on May 5, 2020 |

I don't think you need to be an epidemiologist to see the massive amounts of complaints about lack of testing over the last couple of months. the overall number for the country is problematic and nobody should be using it to come up with big fatality numbers, just like they shouldn't be using the recovery number for anything and freaking out over it Colorado got good though; we're up to like 5,000 a day and the governor is practically begging people to get tested. my wife went to get one a couple days ago and it took like 10 minutes

Puppy Galaxy posted:I swear I'm not playing devil's advocate here -- what do we make of the fact that, while cases are up overall and skyrocketing in places like Florida, hospitalizations and deaths especially are still way, way down? Can that all be attributed to increased testing? if you're talking about generally, not every state is Florida if you're talking about just in Florida it's because it takes a week or more with covid for some people to get bad enough to go to the hospital and potentially several weeks after that to die

QuarkJets posted:How so? If someone else releases a successful vaccine and your team is still 12 months away, or stuck in a dead end, then that was an unprofitable venture Not if one is more effective than another, results in fewer side effects, can be used on more people (live vs. dead virus), is cheaper to produce, etc. The competitive space isn’t just “is a vaccine or not”

QuarkJets posted:Fine but see the part where I mention dead ends; most efforts will never release a vaccine, clearly those ventures would be unprofitable Ok Companies are trying for a piece of the pie. That’s why it’s called a venture. I don’t think anyone’s arguing they’re guaranteed success.

Broken Machine posted:Within the last month or so, they also have found a drug treatment that has been shown, with actual evidence, to significantly reduce the fatality rate. Even if more people get infected, the fatality rate is probably going to go down. At least until the hospitals fill up or the drug runs out. I was skeptical about how big of a deal this was because of loving course you're going to treat respiratory inflammation with a common steroid. Today I read an article from the University of Colorado saying they've been treating people with this since March. So don't read too much into it.

Zugzwang posted:Okay so, a case fatality rate - "case" meaning "you are sick enough for us to notice that you have the virus" - of 5% means that if half of infections are asymptomatic, the infection fatality rate is 2.5%. And if 80% of people who get it are asymptomatic, IFR = 1%. Where the gently caress did the CDC get that number of ~0.2% IFR then? Having a case requires testing and confirmation, so IFR includes untested positive cases as well as asymptomatic cases. The CDC believes the US has 10x more infections than we've been able to test for. Because of the testing issues CFR mostly refers to "sick enough to go to the ER," not "sick and showing symptoms."

Uncle Lloyd posted:You are talking about the same FDA that revoked the emergency authorization to use chloroquine for Covid, despite Trump's pumping of it, yeah? I mean, I'm not saying blind trust in the government is the way to go here, but it's not as simple as saying that anything from DC is automatically malicious. A lot of people died specifically and solely because the FDA gave that authorization in the first place despite nobody recommending it outside of Wuhan and some French quack.

The entirely hypothetical Trump's Warp Speed Vaccine would probably not have this on day 1, but if that consensus was reached by day 180 then that'd be fine. Trump doesn’t have a private special vaccine.

Some of the responses were straight-up insane like people washing produce with dish soap level panic. Scientists will never rule out something that is technically possible so you get a lot of people putting weight into some twitter PhD saying "food could technically be a source of transmission" even though nobody's actually accounted for cases or determine what kind of risk that vector poses Since there are countries paying very close attention to how people are getting infected and spreading the virus with no better idea of how many people are contracting corona through Amazon packages it seems likely that the risk falls somewhere below killing yourself by walking down a staircase in socks Tiny Timbs fucked around with this message at 17:49 on Jul 2, 2020 |
