I'd just as soon stop using any coined phrase starting with social. I hate these phashionable monikers. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it." L.Tolstoy "A government is just a body of people, usually, notably, ungoverned." Shepherd Book | |||

Just a point of clarification (i.e. no a debate or argument on this post), those charts reflect a small percentage/dataset of the total population that has been tested. If there was a way to know the 'total' number of those infected with the virus, the numbers would likely look totally different (i.e. the number of those infected but asymptomatic and/or recovered would skyrocket). And a question. Does the 'Blue' bars on the chart reflect only those who were hospitalized and recovered? I assume that is the case which shrinks the size of the recovered dataset substantially. I doubt anyone is tracking those who tested positive, where sent home to recover, and did. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

There are innumerable examples of that sort of thing. How much of the BS news media has stopped referring to this pandemic’s being due to “the” coronavirus as if there were only one even though there are hundreds? Once such terms become accepted in common usage, it’s impossible to rid ourselves of them. ► 6.4/93.6 “ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one’s own understanding without another’s guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one’s own mind without another’s guidance.” — Immanuel Kant | |||

Kinda reminds me of years ago when I was working as a senior analyst for a large super regional bank. I did three huge analyses and had each one of them shot down by the brass because they didn't like the results. How did I finally learn to get by this? I took the results they wanted and worked backward. Was what I eventually gave them worth the paper it was printed on. Nope, but its what they wanted. I suspect we're seeing a very similar phenomenon occurring with these models. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

Just a clarification since I worked as a senior analyst for a number of years. Many times I had good bordering on great data on which to base my analyses, but management didn't like the results of my modeling. So in the end, they got what they wanted (most of the time being near garbage), because they wouldn't accept honest analysis. Personally, that's what I fear is occurring in the modeling for this virus. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

Using Radio Tune-In on my Sonos in the garage. Hannity was broadcasting President Trump and the COVID-19 Task Force briefing. But now they aren’t. Looked for it on National Public Radio but not playing there either. What station broadcasts the briefings uninterrupted? “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this. We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics,” Pres.

And those in government using the phrase "the New Normal" referring to this social distancing BS obviously haven't met the majority of my neighbors. They 'are not' going to accept any such thing as this virus winds down. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

As promised, here is an update and expanded graph of new death by date per million population for states with cumulative deaths >100. The number of states has increased since the last graph, so it's difficult to follow lines of individual states; but one can clearly see that NY and NJ, as well as LA, appear to have peaked in new deaths. MI is still trending upward.  _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

The couple of Pritzker’s that I have caught consisted of him bitching about Trump for about 90% of the press conference...are they still like this? That guy pisses me off to no end...all he does is complain how everyone isn’t doing his job for him. Typical lazy asshole liberal. | |||

Thanks Keystoner I found C-Span. It appears they play the Presidential addresses and briefings uninterrupted. NPR needs to be defunded if they are not going to play Presidential addresses and briefings. Seems like those Presidential briefings would be mandated to be broadcast by NPR regardless of political party. “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this.

That would be the case if the current President were a Democrat. | |||

Something ain't right. You can contract the virus by almost looking at someone, but to test if you have it they have to shove a q-tip up your nose to your brain? Gimme a break. How about I just spit into a test tube? | |||
