D vs. R has been reality vs. fantasy for a while. This is not surprising to me at all.
I could ask, but Iām probably giving up a significant amount of career equity by doing that. I might not care if they continue to handle COVID this poorly.
Woah, slow down there wild man.

When stupid becomes costly
Itās pretty insane when you consider the NYC area.
Maybe lupus and RA patients can do a free trial of government-provided health care!

Lol guess u have been in the south long. People arenāt changing a thing. They would have to admit they were wrong and that simply doesnāt happen in the south.
Some people call them Tar Heels because the stood out n the open getting mowed down by union forces and refused to take cover , move or retreat .
ā they must have tar in their heels.ā
They are also stubborn and unbluffable in poker

Oklahomaā¦Oklahoma. Rings a bell. Is there something happening there this weekend?
Someone needs to hold a fake car raffle or something and get all these covidiots names and Email addresses.
Then hit them with some doodle polls asking them to pick the type of casket or urn they want when they die of covid (all with the official trump signature of course)
WA is really a tale of East or West of the Cascades. Western Washington is doing pretty well after getting hit hard early on. Eastern Washington is all fucked up. Lots of agriculture and lots of outbreaks in produce and meat processing.
If a couple of contracts come through, weāll break our lease and head toā¦uhā¦well we were thinking Vegas before COVID. Now maybe Alaskaā¦ No way, theyāre fucked too???

Should probably do nasal swabs on people with the trach still in. Would be worth a paper if those results are different.

Yikes. I was predicting as much earlier. Because it takes a great mind to predict mass crowds without social distancing will send positive tests into orbit 
Does anyone know if NV testing can somehow control for infections that happened to tourists? I would just guess that a lot of people get infected there but donāt show symptoms and get tested until back home, so the spread in Vegas could be significantly higher than reported, but I guess those numbers get counted wherever anyway and end up in the same total.
Grunching by a few hundred posts. Iāve got my plot generation automated for the states, so if you want to see a log or value plot of cases and deaths, go to https://unstuck-opl-dev.github.io/main-covid/pages/plots/YYYY/MM/DD/States/SS/CDLog_SS_YYYY-MM-DD.svg, where SS is the state abbreviation. For the value plots, use Val instead of Log. For example for Floridaās plot through today:
I guess Unstuck doesnāt support SVG format, so hereās a screen shot of that plot:
The US trend maps for case and death trends are also in the same directory structure, under the US directory for each day. For example:
The darkness is now using the cases per mllion population divided by weighted population density for each state, from the data source that Dan provided, so you can see that New Mexico, the Dakotas, and Missippi are doing worse for their density than say Massachusetts or New Jersey. Itās still not that easy to see the differences, so I may make it more discrete color levels than the full range that iām currently using.
Iāll try to update every evening after 8 EDT, and work on improving the automation.
@anon38180840, let me know if you need help automating any of the data processing (havenāt read any of your most recent posts). Iām using the Johns Hopkins data, but could add support for other sources, and I think I can output in CSV format.

Truth. Truth. Truth. Truth.
People up north have no idea.
You know how annoying fans of the 1985 Bears are? Thatās the south except itās for everything else.
Do you think it is going to be hard/impossible for the media and late night television hosts to spoon feed dumb Americas āYou have to stay at home now Bobby because the nurses are wearing trash bags. They serve you and you serve them by staying home etc etcā after they unequivocally endorsed the BLM protests with hundreds of thousands of people standing shoulder to shoulder?
ā¦And is it possible that this is one of the reasons that big business got behind BLM so quickly and fully? Because the protests now make it impossible to tell anyone else to stay home?
Fall is going to be an absolute blood bath.

That would be awesome! Iāve got some tables in Excel, and Iāve been copy and pasting off Wikipedia each night (insert much of what follows MM joke here everyone) . Iād be happy to get the data from elsewhere, my only issue is that Johns Hopkins seems to update the latest, and I want to have the flexibility to do it a little earlier.
I tried to use the Excel function to import from a website on 4-5 different sites, but it wouldnāt work.
