That's one way to make case numbers look better - test less!
The latest White House report says the number of viral tests conducted in Georgia dropped more than 44% from the previous week, continuing a recent trend.
In the last month, the state has gone from conducting 1,260 tests for every 100,000 people to conducting only 639 tests for every 100,000 people — a net decrease of about 50%.

Maybe folks are busy with work, or school, or other things ... or maybe they simply aren't sick???Originally posted by Swansong View Post
I know, crazy talk, right? Since the MSM would no way, no how, ever chase down a story to blast from the rooftops about how sick people looking for tests are being denied them.
Maybe the "COVID-19 Mobile Test Squad" should be going door-to-door, drumming up business?!?
Anything to stoke your bogus narrative about how Red states are suppressing their numbers.

That's absolute nonsense.

Hospitalizations are nowhere near down 44% for the last few weeks. They just aren't testing as much.
I didn't say red states. I said two very specific states, who have very vocal (and frighteningly stupid) governors.

You mean test less, like test more per capita than any country in the world between Feb 20 - Sept 14? And in many comparisons testing hundreds more per capita than other Countries.Originally posted by Swansong View Post
Is that the kind of testing less that you mean? Let me know your thoughts. How much more should we be testing?
https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/f...-02-20..latest
Since every Country in the world tests less than the US. What would happen to their cases if every country tested the exact same as the US per capita?
Interesting you make a quip That's one way to make case numbers look better - test less! in regards to the Country testing the most in the World and in most scenarios by an extremely wide margin.
Nice context & you are a context guy right? Let me know if this is a post that needs some moderation?Last edited by Jeb2020; 09-17-2020, 11:07 AM.Comment

I would just like to, once again, thank everyone for not quoting the derp. Now if we could just fix the stupid ignore bug so I could add Whalers. I tried yesterday but it didnt work.
Is anyone really surprised though that Georgia is testing less? I am actually surprised they test at all these days..."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

It is fraudulent and at this point criminal.

But the problem is, proper precautions don't really allow for sitting inside a restaurant or really anywhere. The precautions like masks and distancing apply when you can't eliminate contact. The restaurant thing is particularly crazy because no amount of social distancing is going to work indoors. This is well-documented in several journals:
A1 was the infected person and everyone in red was infected and likely A1. C1 and C2 were even "upwind" and about 10 ft away from the person. THey still got infected.

You won’t get a reply. If you do it will be about blocking you or needing moderation.Originally posted by Whalers View Post
Just like we won’t get a reply from the guy that is leaning towards prosecuting people in regards to Covid19 Weddings.
The very guy that had his wedding in the middle of all this and even admittedly on this very board discussed how difficult of a decision it was. Yet still pushed thru and had the Wedding. Which very well could have put many in harms way.
It would be interesting to see how his defense would hold up in the Covid Tribunal.Comment

DX - here's that study on the CDC site.

Until we get a vaccine all the way integrated into pretty much everyone (at least, enough to achieve an influenza-like herd immunity), we need to be careful.

There was something on MSN, I didn't read the article, but the headline was about how a good number of Covfefe cases can be traced back to eating in a restaurant.What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?Comment
