Coronavirus (COVID-19 Outbreak) (68 Viewers)

[Seven]

This is becoming more than a virus. So far my country bought around 2100 respirators and none arrived yet eventhough payment went through. Apparently, when we cash out via banks it needs 24h to get a green light. During that period they call stronger countries (ehm, US), saying that X country is buying from X supplier. Then they send their agents offering 2, 3, 4x more and getting the respirators while we're put on hold and wait for the delivery for 20, 30 days, which can be even late. Sounds pretty fucking sad and horrible.

Ideally this is something you tackle on a global scale. In a very real sense the strong helping the weak helps everyone, because as long as the virus keeps circulating elsewhere, it'll just come back.

their numbers jumped pretty far in the last 24 hours

Belgium too has quite high numbers for such a small country.

I read that in relative terms we have the highest numbers.

Hospitals are nowhere near overwhelmed though.

Yea just looked him up. A very generous gesture

New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut are going to be looking at ways to perhaps soon start to allow people to go out and back to work. Still in the early planning stages of course though. From the sound of it, it looks like they're going to want to be able to test EVERYONE first, and will then probably start by allowing younger people out first.

You're a reasonable man for such matters, what are your thoughts on deploying such methods to enforce social distancing given the circumstances?:

we need to implement this in the US

Will be interesting to see how this goes... have you seen this site? https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections

Predicts April 15th as peak resource use, and April 16th as peak daily death count of 3130 across the US.

Today is going to be close to 2000 deaths, so I’m interested to see if this projection holds more or less true, or if it’s too soon and optimistic and is far eclipsed.

The methodology of this model is so bad, and it’s been wrong constantly.

I haven't. I think it's harder to predict things like this for the United States since states are all acting on their own. Once New York's curve begins to flatten and Florida's begins to skyrocket because they're stupid, is that factored in for example?

what was the video? I can’t see it

It was the first 30 or so seconds of this video:

It's really odd. I can't describe it. But I feel like you get off on as many people as possible dying.

What's your government doing? Similar to the likes of germany and most of europe, or less restrictions?

 

[Seven]

Yes. Shops are closed, people are encouraged to work from home. We also have this rule that if you are outside, you must keep moving.

it’s hard to say when you’ve got a coast to coast patchwork of stupid

Also, we did 187 thousand million tests today.

That makes 187 billion. That's a lot of tests for someone in a day
