Oxford University plagiarized my shit

GrundleStiltzkin

This is old news now, a whole 5-6 days, but I'm just seeing it.

Now here comes a study at the University of Oxford that poses a mind-boggling question: What if half of the British population is already infected with coronavirus? What if the percentage of infected people who need hospitalization for COVID-19 is actually teeny tiny because, unbeknownst to us, the overall infected population is actually enormously large? If half of Great Britain is already infected, the country is already well on its way to acquiring herd immunity, which means they may be seeing the worst of the epidemic right now. There’s no true “mass casualty” scenario as the virus spreads. It’s already spread. And it turns out it’s harmless in virtually everyone who gets it.

If the results are confirmed, they imply that fewer than one in a thousand of those infected with Covid-19 become ill enough to need hospital treatment, said Sunetra Gupta, professor of theoretical epidemiology, who led the study. The vast majority develop very mild symptoms or none at all…

The research presents a very different view of the epidemic to the modelling at Imperial College London, which has strongly influenced government policy. “I am surprised that there has been such unqualified acceptance of the Imperial model,” said Prof Gupta…

The Oxford study is based on a what is known as a “susceptibility-infected-recovered model” of Covid-19, built up from case and death reports from the UK and Italy. The researchers made what they regard as the most plausible assumptions about the behaviour of the virus…

If the findings are confirmed by testing, then the current restrictions could be removed much sooner than ministers have indicated.

How do we know if the Oxford study is right or wrong? We take a “poll” of sorts. Head out into the field and perform serological tests on a *random* sample of the population. Those tests will show who has coronavirus antibodies in their system, the telltale sign of a person who’s been infected and fought the infection off. If half the sample turns out to have those antibodies, there you go. That’s the smoking gun that many, many, many more people have been infected than we realized and just shook off the disease without having had much of an inkling that they had it.

This is why I think it isn't "targeting" the younger demographics. They've all already had it through the schools back in Winter and have herd immunity at this point.

Chinteresting point. And if true, then closing down the schools was all for naught.

I was right

Closing down the economy was all for naught. Except to hurt Trump.

Disagree.

It deepens the solemn nature of this. Very solemn.

Pelosi solemn.

I think the UW or a local company is attempting this locally. Sending out testing kits to random neighborhoods, because if the results are that more people have it with no symptoms, it would indicate that senior living facilities, and densely populated places, really are horrible horrible places to live. That is, if you can smell piss, you're going to die.

Dark shit dude.

haie

Really shocking that certain cities with the necessary infrastructural catalysts are in a legitimate crisis situation but the the country as a whole should be back to normal.
