It’s actually not incorrect, according to the former dean of microbiology at a fairly well-respected college, who happens to be sitting next to me.HHusky said:
That's incorrect. But regardless, do your part and catch the damn thing.thechatch said:
20% is exactly 1/3 of the way toward herd immunity.HHusky said:Can you name anyone who didn't know that the fatality rate would decline with more testing?
14% or 20%? Regardless, not even one-third of the way to herd immunity.

This further illustrates that number of cases doesn't matter and never has. So testing is an absolute waste of time and money, unless its for antibodies.incremetal_progress said:yeah I don't know how we should handle this. It's so widespread that waiting for the "curve" to go down seems hard to actually imagine unless you wait for a longer period of time than Americans will be willing. Specific things like restaurants, theatres, spas, etc. should definitely stay closed to ensure that the healthcare system isn't overwhelmed, teleworking should still be encouraged. But I'm not sure that pouring sand into skate parks, and closing golf courses is really helping.
Find a way to protect care centers, and the more vulnerable communities and start to open.
The scoreboard is hospitalizations and deaths. In Oregon, at least, that curb has been stomped. -

Time to stop worrying so much about the 2%(old and infirm) and start focusing on the 98% Who will lead us into the future. -
Slo Joe! Bought and paid for.

That concept went the way of the dodo bird once we started allowing heroin users and homeless people to shit on the sidewalks. Time to take back the middle of the bell curve and say FUCK OFF to the outlying 1%'ers.doogie said:
