Ya the weekend data is always a bit wonky. Something to keep an eye on the next few days. Even just having 1100 yesterday and today as their weekend data seems really bad.
There are also a bunch of tiny Texas counties starting to have a large number of new cases in a relative sense each and every day.
Lead on NBC Nightly news about rising cases. Note that the big growth is age group 18-29 so we do seem to be in two phase mode. People will get fooled that itâs less lethal but if they ainât careful those same 18-29 demo will kill the olds. And why would we think theyâll be careful.
That church reminds me of WWE using a spray they said would kill coronavirus on contact for 90 days. Who wouldâve guessed dopes in denial of the danger presented by the virus would fall for obvious scams.
Do you think thereâs a way to use this technology inside the body, inside the lungs? I bet nobody has thought of that. The doctors, they tell me itâs incredible how quickly I can grasp this stuff.
I think if you have a doctorâs note listing a pre-existing condition theyâll let you work from home. The ironic thing is the guy who tested positive has only been into the office 2-3 times since we returnedâI think he had one of those notes allowing him to work from home.
With all of the big states crowding the right side, it would be more informative to use the cases/population or cases/population/weighted density for the X-axis and to select the top states. Or maybe add another plot with the weighted data.
Boulder, CO is having a second wave, including my daughter and her friends. She is feeling better already, got tested yesterday, positive result today, and two of her roommates have symptoms. One of the asymptomatic roommates doesnât want to get tested, because she canât afford to take time off work. The roommate works at a tanning salon, with lots of old people all the time. No one could have predicted this when all the students flowed back in to party for the summer in packed bars.
The state is starting to tick up in cases as well, but as with many places, deaths are still going down. Iâm thinking that we may see an echo wave as these young people infect the more vulnerable, and as the marginally vulnerable get sick of quarantining and see how itâs ânot so badâ after all.
