Ensigmatic,

Care to share your data analysis?

I'm not going to do this with you again, Dakor.

Such statements, which are clearly blanket in their nature, shouldn't go unchallenged

Some of you need to go outside for a walk, if you're in the south, you can inhale the yellow air

Until that daily cumulative cases curve starts flattening-out they'll keep having to clamp-down harder.

Yeah... as of this writing, AirmanJeff's state of MD has 107 cases, up 22 from yesterday.
We are going to have to avoid personal contact for a while to slow this down. Hang in there.

Would you rather someone give you $1 million today, or a penny today, two pennies tomorrow, four pennies the next day, and so on, with the number of pennies doubling every day?

To help you with your decision, I'll point out that with the second option, after a week, you will have received total of a measly $1.27, and after two weeks, only $163.83. After three weeks, you're up to $20,971.51, which certainly isn't bad, but it's no million dollars.

On the other hand, at the end of the seventh week, there literally won't be enough hard currency on the entire planet to keep paying you because you'll already have it all.

Each graph (Italy versus USA) shows the opposite of the claim that was made. The number and slope of new cases, number of deaths and resolutions in the US over the same time are different. The numbers are even more dramatic if one takes into consideration the differences in total population between the two countries.

That’s for sure. Slightly congested and dry cough during the day. Funny, it clears up when I go home and stay inside.

He is correct. U.S. is on the same curve as Italy, but 2 weeks or so behind Italy. We're actually seeing a larger increase by percentage, but we do have a lot more population than Italy. Also keep in mind we haven't had the test kits to test people in mass numbers like S. Korea did. Yesterday (March 18) was a 42% increase over the previous day, I attribute this to more test kits being available, my speculation.

And I agree, screw the movie industry and the horse they rode in on.

I want to see all the items in this bill and who put them in. This earmark crap has to stop!!

He is correct. U.S. is on the same curve as Italy, but 3 weeks or so behind Italy.

Wrong, the data is over the same time period and says otherwise (look at the X and Y axes).

It works by allowing zinc to disrupt the rna sequencing of the virus in the cell. Zinc will kill the virus. Zinc on its own is not readily available to do it. I saw a Dr. on YouTube explain it. I will try to find it. I think it was MedCram.

Chloroquine and Zinc

Doesn't zinc cause permanent Anosmia?

Mostly temporary and not by ingestion. Zinc nasal products cause Anosmia. But really, who cares if you test positive for COVID-19.

Data through yesterday.



Same curve, 10-11 days behind.

Guys, a word to the wise: Don't waste your time.

The last time I went around-and-around with Dakor, he'd make an assertion w/o substantiating data. I'd counter with substantiating data. He'd ignore my counter and make another assertion w/o substantiating data. I'd counter again, again with substantiating data. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Ain't goin' there with him again.



Now, it may be that the curve in the U.S. is as pronounced as it is at least in part, because of increased testing. Thing is: We don't know that. Until we do, I'd argue caution is prudent.
