WA positive covid testing rate has dropped from 6% a month ago to 5.2%. States goal is 2%.
-
Where did you get the 5.2%? I used to get that number from the Times but when the cases and deaths began to fall they stopped posting confirmed cases, hence they stopped posting the positive rate%. It topped at like 6.1% and then*poof* gone just when the number should have started to fall. It's like they don't want good news to spread or something. Also, a 2% goal is fucking ridiculous. The state has never been close to that number and likely won't be until the virus goes away on its own or until the state is instructed to stop giving a fuck.huskyhooligan said:WA positive covid testing rate has dropped from 6% a month ago to 5.2%.

4.1% is as low as I have seen that number since we were fully locked the fuck down. Thank you.YouKnowIt said:

Has anyone asked why % positive of tests over a week is a "goal" when testing isn't randomized or normalized across the population?YouKnowIt said:

Do people really not understand that % positive is a reflection of testing strategy and targeting, not of viral prevalence? -
Yep, if you look at the daily numbers, hovering around 4% over the last couple of weeks.YouKnowIt said:

I just did the simple math.
72161/1391309 = 5.2%
-
Wish these were overlay.
Shows testing has basically remained high, roughly 200% higher than peak of covid panic, and numbers of positive cases dropping.

I have fren who is epidemiologist for state who has stated as such. Agreed it's ridiculous.theknowledge said:

if we’re locked down why is there so much damn traffic?
-
The way I read the testing metric at this point is, only 4% of the people who felt sick, was around a sick person or was told to get tested have COVID. That's pretty darn low.Houhusky said:

BUY TRUMP SAID TO DRINK BLEACH AND INJECT SUNSHINE!WestlinnDuck said:Also, no deaths from heart problems induced by HCQ in the latest Belgian study which is what the anti-science leftards seized upon when alleging that Trump was encouraging unauthorized use of HCQ. Also the study was on patients already hospitalized. Also no zinc and antibiotics. Just solo HCQ. We know the best results are if the HCQ cocktail is administered early. It's like refusing to treat some person coming in for strep throat and telling them no treatment until they are hospitalized with rheumatic fever as a complication. Eventually, the massive malpractice of the American medical profession, starting with Fow Chee, regarding the treatment for the chicom crud will be written.

I mentioned basically this possibility several months ago when talking about dead RNA viral shedding...GrundleStiltzkin said:
Viral shedding (not contagious) can create a “false-ish” positive 2-3 weeks after you have already contracted and achieved immunity over the virus.
No one would be surprised by this if they were just reading my posts on HardcoreHusky.... Also no epidemiologist should be surprised by this. -

WA Covid positive test results are now 5.1%. In a matter of three days that's substantial considering when they were making the number available it took weeks, or more than a month to drop from 6% to 5.9%. Fingers crossed for exponential drop.
