COVID-19: Chapter 4 - OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Im saying Known 0.33% (3.3/1,000). I don’t trust the recovered numbers so I just do a simple 14 day sum since that is roughly the infectious period.

If we use a 5x (unknown to known) that is about 1.5%. I would then assume some fraction are sick and staying home or hospitalized so I would ballpark that 1% of the people you see in public are carriers.

Doubling roughly every two weeks.

I do t know what their methodology is. I always asterisk mine cause I do my own thing described earlier in one of these threads.

I have no idea if they are trying to factor in percent positives of density to normalize.

Good god man, turn in your blue card, that’s terrible.

How do you disinfect groceries? Are you literally wiping down everything with bleach or something?

Maybe getting out would take the edge off a little. Have a great night.

Significant because Oklahoma’s total population is 589.

Disinfecting wipes or Lysol-sprayed paper towels on all packaging. Fruit without packaging sits a couple days before eating. For things that can have packaging removed and still be OK, do that, trash the packaging, and then that’s enough.

It’s pretty ridiculous how “pozzed” as a 22 meme only had modest staying power before fading to almost total disuse but has come roaring back to relevance these days.

My card is black, there’s nowhere to turn it in.

Is there even a medical consensus on the definition of “ recoveries” are? Are all the non deaths being lumped in as recoveries? They clearly shouldn’t be but it’s hard to quantify people that lived but have ongoing issues.

I stopped doing this a while ago but then you guys reminded me the CDC’s main priority isn’t me remaining alive :frowning:

Ethyl alcohol is basically food safe. Get those giant jugs of disinfectant that the distilleries are putting out and booze up every surface of whatever food you bring in. This lets you disinfect fruit, eggs, etc. without worry. If you put a little bit of booze in a plastic bag you can put objects in and wash them in seconds from the outside. Let everything dry on its own - do not dry things you are trying to disinfect to allow enough time for it to actually take effect.

Buy extra staples in advance so that you can leave them for a few days in the basement to air out. Been doing this for 120 days+. The entire process takes a few minutes max and you should be doing weekly grocery runs max.

For those outside San Diego: bars were re-closed and a 10pm last call put on restaurants last evening. That was unilateral by the county.

I would expect SDCo to unilaterally put the same restrictions the state has put on those 19 counties right about right now or sometime tomorrow. Regardless, it’s almost certain that SDCo will be added to the state restricted counties on Friday, when they fail the pre-announced guidelines 3 days in a row…

When I was in high school, I was on the puppet team at my church. Puppet rendition of God Bless the USA always brought down the house.

I’m sorry

Don’t knock it til you tried it. Because of puppet team I somehow ended up dating a college girl when I was a high school sophomore and got my hands on my first pair of boobs. Ah, the 90s were simpler times.
