Covfefe-19 The 12th Part: The Only Thing Worse Than This New Board Is TrumpVirus2020

[Handyman]

Basic Bean Counter Analysis...if you come up with the vaccine first you will get that initial 3-4 days of high stock prices but much like with Eastman Kodak that only lasts for as long as the news is positive. You will lose it all if you rush something and it isnt the miracle needed.

This way you can still rush (because they are all still trying to win this game) but make it look like you care. Meanwhile all the corners you already cut and the games you play with the data will still happen people have just been primed to trust you now.

Nine companies have signed on that they refuse to release their vaccine until it successfully passes phase three testing with OUT "fast-tracking" or cutting corners.

As was eloquently said on CNBC: once again it's business leading the way in regards to listening to the science when the government won't.

"Deep State corporations & Big Tech want to control us!"

Funny thing is, they aren't wrong. They're just wrong for the wrong reasons.

There's the actual study. Read the abstract, and then the rest of it, and tell me the pandemic is over.

The early costs of sturgis are staggering. South Dakota should pay big time.

Holy ****

We are further able to document national spread due to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, although that spread also appears to have been successfully mitigated by states with strict infection mitigation policies. In counties with the largest relative inflow to the event, the per 1,000 case rate increased by 10.7 percent after 24 days following the onset of Sturgis Pre-Rally Events. Multiplying the percent case increases for the high, moderate-high and moderate inflow counties by each county’s respective pre-rally cumulative COVID-19 cases and aggregating, yields a total of 263,708 additional cases in these locations due to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Adding the number of new cases due to the Rally in South Dakota estimated by synthetic control (3.6 per 1,000 population, scaled by the South Dakota population of approximately 858,000) brings the total number of cases to 266,796 or 19 percent of 1.4 million new cases of COVID-19 in the United States between August 2nd 2020 and September 2nd 2020.

Edit: WHoa...

If we conservatively assume that all of these cases were non-fatal, then these cases represent a cost of over $12.2 billion, based on the statistical cost of a COVID-19 case of $46,000 estimated by Kniesner and Sullivan (2020). This is enough to have paid each of the estimated 462,182 rally attendees $26,553.64 not to attend.

Pay who?

[Deutsche Gopher Fan]

Pay who?

You know **** well what I meant. I’d love to see the people responsible for super spreader events get large financial punishments. Will never happen, but like I said, I wish

Slavitt Twitter has interesting info on the covid longhaulers- those with symptoms lasting months.

just saw report that around half of Italy survivors still have lingering symptoms

Wow, how fast things change on Myocarditis being so "prevalent". Penn State needed to "Clarify" their story that some on here were touting as a reason to cancel ALL youth, high school and college sports .

Monday 8/31 - myocarditis is affecting 30-35% of Big Ten athletes, THAT is why the season was cancelled.
Wed 9/2 - “initial preliminary data that had been verbally shared by a colleague on a forthcoming study” showing a rate of close to 15 percent

That’s quite a percentage drop in 2 days. So how was this 15% number arrived at for Penn St athletes? Not sure because Penn State has reported NO myocarditis cases in athlete's who have tested positive for Corona. Hmmmm, that’s strange, but don’t take my word, go to this newspaper link from a Red Neck hillbilly saportin papah;

https://www.washingtonpost.com/sport...s-myocarditis/

Appears that Myocarditis is so "prevalent" according to the basement bed wetters that there are TWO (yes 2, you know, the number after 1 and before 3) high-level athletes — Boston Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez and Indiana offensive lineman Brady Feeney, who have been stricken by this side effect. I will await all of your well reasoned posts about must have eaten lead paint chips after ya ma took thalidomide. For further context as to the dire health consequences of this affliction, Myocarditis causes about 75 deaths per year in athletes from 13 to 25, according to the Myocarditis Foundation, AND THIS WAS PRE-CORONA VIRUS, so nice try.

Huh. Covid cases dropped when stay-at-home orders were followed.

[Deutsche Gopher Fan]

Wow, wonder how Axel will feel about this
