Too bad this disease didn’t hit about four months earlier. It’d really help us out in the House of Reps and redistricting once the fools are thinned from the herd.

This is how you win playing Pandemic 2. Now, has anyone checked on Madagascar?

In terms of the numbers, until the testing really catches up, the key number in terms of how fast it's spreading is the death rate- with all of the testing restrictions, it represents a more realistic number than the case rate. At least right now. But the seriously sick are getting tests, and the deaths caused by COVID19 represents a better spread rate number from two weeks ago than the actual case rate number.

Not only does it better represent a realistic case rate from two weeks ago pretty accurately, it also gives an idea of the live crisis in hospitals. For the next few weeks, I think its then number that one should track.

Maybe the actual diagnosis numbers will catch up, but I don't see that happening.

(also, at this moment, the fact that the daily change is "flat" is irrelevant. Again, this is a better number to represent cases 1-2 weeks ago.
 
Re: Covfefe-19 - Part 4- Stay the **** Home

Not sure if the drop in cases means much. I'm reading that some areas are cutting testing even more as their supplies are running low and the current number of cases has increased. Can only test the very seriously ill.

Thanks, Obama.

There used to be a poster on Fark who went to Freep and posted comments from there in relevant threads so no one else had to wade in there. Fark put a stop to it for reasons I'm not sure of.
 
Re: Covfefe-19 - Part 4- Stay the **** Home

Yeah it is a false flat. The number cant go up if people arent being tested. Though I am sure Trump will make sure to mention how it is flattening at his next "Look At Me, Priase Me!" sessions. (which will be followed by someone who made it past 5th grade science saying "Yeah...no" )

I assume Brit Hume and the rest of clowns at Faux will make sure to spread the BS too putting people at risk.

Probably wise not to give FR the free publicity. Or perhaps Rim Job sent them a pro-forma C&D letter, who knows?

When will the “INMATES ARE TESTED WHILE REAL AMERICANS ARE TOLD TO GO HOME” headlines break :eek:
 
Re: Covfefe-19 - Part 4- Stay the **** Home

Good news! Trump’s lover Li’l Kim has announced there are zero cases of Covid-19 in North Korea.
But wait: “ In South Korea, analysts and medical experts are highly sceptical of Pyongyang's claims - and those with sources in North Korea said the virus is already ravaging its way through the country.”
