I am amused by your insistence on being dumb, but only as long as you are actually walking your talk--so get out there Mikey. And because I realized some time ago that you gals would sabotage an effective response to the virus, I had already given up on my vacation plans (Americans aren't going to be allowed into many places for some time) and assumed my business will be pretty spotty for awhile.MikeDamone said:
You’re rooting for it. Bigly.HHusky said:
We're all going to die someday too. Acknowledging that reality doesn't mean I'm rooting for it.TurdBomber said:
So you're still rooting for the virus is what you're saying. Okay.HHusky said:
Less susceptible populations are getting more of the cases and testing has improved.Houhusky said:
Can you take a breathe for a second and explain in your own words why you think cases have completely decoupled from both previously understood hospitalization and death ratios?HHusky said:
Thank you Doctor.RaceBannon said:

It's not a big deal unless you die from it.HHusky said:
SD has a much higher rate of infection than Washington. I love how you gals define this as no big deal unless you die from it. That’s not reality.TurdBomber said:SD = 1% death rate among active cases. Washington's is 4%.
SD = 800 active cases. Washington's has 21.7k.
SD is doing just terrible!
And, preemptively, like we say, Fuck Off.
Does the reported percent positive antigen testing accurately reflect current infection rates in the general population? If so, and given that states like Florida are now reporting 12-20% positive in their testing, what does that likely reflect as the percent CURRENTLY infected in the general population of the state. Surely you aren’t suggesting 12-20% of Florida residents are sick/infected with covid, right now?
Don’t you think it’s likely, with both the decoupling of previously understood ratios AND an impossibly high percent positive test rate that there is some sort of selection bias occurring in the raw data?
If your death/disability from infection rate decreases but your total cases explode, you're still going to have huge death/disability numbers.
You’ll even make stuff up in your zeal for a virus.
And I do like getting to say "I told you so." But this is like watching a slow motion car wreck; no rooting, just watching the inevitable. Are you still laughing?
