COVID-19: Chapter 5 - BACK TO SCHOOL

He was in charge in Italy when I was doing a project there. Scientist types I was working with were embarrassed by him and his affairs and other nonsense.

Seems familiar for some reason

Darwin nominee and real potential winnar

We really need a study of casinos

  1. 100% masks
    2 0% masks
    3 whatever normal is (75%?)

I won’t speculate about deaths, but I think this will be the biggest spike in cases. Dan’s model, if accurate, is crazy scary. We’re very early on in this part and colleges are a straight nightmare with limited testing.

Each time we spike we are starting from a higher baseline. The growth curve slope doesn’t have to be any different to keep hitting higher peaks.

Is UP still batting 0% getting Covid? If so that kind of shows how well the precautions work.

Why does everyone assume this when the more obvious It’s a Hoax and They’re All Crisis Actors is on the table?

So far so good from my Russian Roulette week with family in Denver.

But I don’t know if I can go back to quarantine now that I’ve seen the inside of a BJ’s.

I still have a strong suspicion that when it gets cold the cases will be easier to transmit and more severe (due to higher initial viral load). However that will be mitigated somewhat by whatever % of people already have gotten it.

I guess the nightmare scenario is the back-to-school wave leads into a cold-weather student → family transmission family second-wave that looks a lot like N. Italy at its worst.

Erm, like anyone who has heard of flu or Covid has had this similar strong suspicion since Jan 2020

I reckon you’ll be right, this time

Sure, as more opens up so will numbers increase - but let’s just close the non-essential stuff, you know like not schools.

Maybe quit the takeout like the ROW did for a few months and let the kids get an education in return

Didn’t you guys hear that we are rounding the turn on the pandemic?

Also covid related, there’s a woman that I was talking to a month or so ago and checks a lot of boxes for me. However, she just started training as a fucking bartender when we started talking, in Alabama. In an area that’s probably trumpertown. There’s not much I can do with that really right?

The first turn. I firmly believe wave 1 ends with whatever happens in the part we just started.

Meh, Corona teased us by getting Weinstein and Boris Johnson, but they both came through fine. Not getting my hopes up for Berlusconi.

Not if some of us caught it and were asymptomatic.

There are 320 of us

If 5% of population has gotten it you’d expect 16 of us.

40% asymptomatic still means about 10 of us expected.

0 so far means we are running hot; most likely reason is we are taking more precautions than the average person and the rate of infection among people taking precautions is much lower than 5% so far.

Wait, that 320 posters was over a year ago. Does anybody know the number now?

Either way, we are way under expectation for pozzes at 0 so good job UP

Who could have known distancing and masks worked? Well, besides UP way ahead of the curve?

Pretty sure someone here said they tested positive. Guessing the UP days since last positive covid test banner needs to be reset to about 30.
