    I don't know the parameters they are using to classify "new" cases, etc. I'm thinking, if somehow EVERYONE miraculously got tested tomorrow, how different the numbers would be.
    I do worry that if it takes two weeks to find and process all the numbers, the numbers we're showing now are wrong as well and we can't say we're at a peak.

    Numbers to watch are new/cumulative hospitalizations (which CDPHE is actually now showing.) Those are up to date and (shouldn't) mysteriously add 100 people two weeks later. They show us pretty level in the mid-800s for total hospitalized - we've at least contained things and not overrun the hospitals.

    Hospitals are also taking a lot of PUIs, or "yeah, we're pretty sure you got it, we're pretty sure you're gonna be okay, but let's keep you here until we know for sure." That wouldn't happen if the hospitals were getting creamed - they'd be sending them home and only be taking the worst cases

    Zero hospitals anticipating an ICU bed shortage in the coming week, and numbers of hospitals anticipating staff and PPE shortages are down as well.

          Completely unrelated to people getting sick, but I'm getting tired of seeing posts, videos, etc of "Can Industry X survive???"

          Of course it can. When the economy opens back up, the demand for everything that is closed down will be there- in some cases, the pent up demand will be REALLY high, I expect.

          And, for sure, many industries will likely be smaller because of fear (like my cruise industry). But there will be demand.

          The REAL question is if current specific organizations will survive or not.

          Flying will be back in some form, food service will be back, shops will be back, hair cutting will be back, vacations (resorts, cruises, hotels, rentals) will be back.

          I can't see any industry where a significant demand will totally dry up after the pandemic is over. And I honestly think some will have a pretty big rebound, as people are so darned sick of being stuck at home with nowhere to go.

          I'm just tired of seeing people put headlines up to make people think that this is the end. (and that also goes for mass extinction- this is a HORRIBLE situation, and many people are dying, but there are zero indicators that this is any worse than previous pandemics that didn't wipe out the population- there are far more people who get infected and not even get sick than actually do get sick, let alone die).

          This isn't the end. It's just REALLY REALLY tough. Sucks really bad. Horrible situation. But not the end.

                              Funny how the first comment is from a "former Surf instructor", and claims that no way is that Newport Beach. He/She is correct, although the original author of the post did admit that one of the pics was from Huntington Beach. Honestly, I think they are both from Huntington Beach, but the one with the water 'cutting-through' the sand is the Huntington Beach Jetty, which separates Huntington Beach to the North, and Newport Beach to the South. But regardless, live cams tell the story (at least they do at 2:45pm PDT!)...

                              Cheers!!! (and Enjoy!)
