Riding my bike into work today I passed a cross fit gym that is outdoors, but a bunch of people there, some gathered in groups, none with masks.
That is great news for our area , NY and N.J. plus if you exclude NYC the rate is .91%. So the 5 regions of NY and maybe even 7 that are in Phase 3 with restaurants and bars open are not seeing a spike and it seems definitive now that the protests that were all over NYC , in all 5 boroughs , plus upstate in Buffalo and Syracuse , did not elevate the rate and those protesters, probably because most of them wore masks , did not increase or spread Covid. That should open up more things in NYC. Murphy is just a step behind. I cannot find the number of tests done per day on the N.J. dashboard like the NY one , so I cannot tell the exact rate , but NY tests daily and has 24 hour results. Still not sure N.J. does.
I'm 44, so the lack of under 25 year old deaths doesn't exactly fill me with exuberance.
Look at stats for under 65 - better chance of falling down the stairs. Data doesn’t lie.
I didn't subscribe, what did the article say for deaths under 65?
I’m glad Arizona is finally testing LtC facilities. Of course, National media won’t mention this as reason for surge in cases.
I remember reading that Moderna's initial testing was done by giving either a low, medium or high dose. People who received the low and medium dosage reported no problems but those with the high dosage did experience side effects so I'd ask about that too.
Wrong . Ny had 13 deaths yesterday. This after being as high as 800 and bringing it all the way down. You comparison sucks because Texas and Florida never got hit the way NY did. Ny ‘s positivity rate is 1%., which is nothing short of remarkable. Get your facts straight and do an apples to apples comparison if you were honest. Such a silly misleading post .
True, but you do. So far, COVID deaths in those under 65, in less than 4 months, total about 25,000 (127K total dead, with ~20% of those under 65). Deaths from total falls in the last year available (2017) were 5000 in those under 65 (36.3K total). Last time I checked, 5000 is a little bit less than 25,000. And that's just over 4 months and the fall data is all falls, not falls down stairs, so the disparity will likely be at least 10:1 vs. the current 5:1 by the end of the year. You might want to research something the next time you decide to post. I really can't stand the amount of made up shit that gets tossed around on the internet.
I've touched on this before but beyond death I'd not want any long term effects of the disease either which at this point is unknown. It's not just severe patients too, it's patients who don't end up in hospital but still have these debilitating effects.
The gym folk? Nah.
Without a doubt some lag with those recent #'s.is this graph accurate, yes or no
This sounds like the Horowitz article a couple weeks ago where he lambasted the media for spreading panic, and sites the recent AZ dashboard to show recent admissions were near zero, not realizing there is a lag in reporting.
There is not a NE state in the top 10 of new cases yesterday. NY is the only one in the top 10 today, but at less then 10% of Florida NJ is way down the list yesterday and today.
There’s big $$$$ going into the negative news... what gets more hits... more reads... more discussions going? That’s right... negative , shock news, news that will cause seniors over 65... people with a weight problem , HBP, pulmonary/ heart issues to panic...if we did not listen to all the BS MSM we would be ok... most of the mask issues where elevated by incorrect info filtered down from the task force ...we’ll see about the “ lag death rates “ very soon ... if they don’t follow the NY- NJ scenario well what’s the reason going to be?
Should FL, TX, CA, AZ be concerned and tighten things up, or no? Forget the media coverage, in your opinion, should they stay open or should they tighten restrictions?
Just to be clear, that AZ dashboard in the first Horowitz article did turn out to be invalid but the rest of his article was pretty spot on re: first hand sources describing the reasons for case increases. As for that specific chart and its lag in reporting, I don't recall any media reporting about such lags at the time. And importantly, it's still kinda difficult to understand how and why there would be 1-2 week lags in reporting such vital information in this era of high tech medical recordkeeping and high speed telecommunications, imo.
This was an older guy, 60ish, and he had it in Febuary, says he still can't go to the bathroom without feeling out of breath.
1)You said cases, that was your point about masks no? New cases?
The media at a minimum need more balance in its reporting during this crisis and provide real and substantive coverage on the horrific societal consequences of this economic shutdown like suicides, depression, addictions, family traumas, crime, etc.
It's a real thing, official reports have a lag. Deny it if you want, but it's reality.
