Can tell y’all this, local hospital has 12 bed ICU, 7 patients on vent from C19.
Never has been that many taking up beds for the flu.
South and west of here is worse. -
Looking forward to the @RaceBannon daily death tracker. All your MAXIMUM CARNAGE info in one convenient place.

Let's take the game thread to some live reporting from our intrepid and heroic (they don't all wear capes you know) plague correspondent Derek Johnson, interviewing what appears to be a brown person in West Seattle:
-
Also getting reports that China has attempted to break quarantine to ensure Sleepy Joe gets elected, but Trump strategically placed "America Kitty" as the last line of defense, thwarting their sneaky yellow bastard attempts.
Somewhere in Tacoma, a fag named Princess rejoices. -

Until we run in traffic, how can we be sure that it is dangerous?RaceBannon said:
So you have no idea if any of this made any difference. Like I saidHHusky said:
I just applied 1918 percentages to our current population. Of course even in the olden days, people knew viruses were contagious and they "overreacted". Cost Seattle a Stanley Cup, and had some less significant adverse effects as well.RaceBannon said:
So you don't have any idea if destroying the economy was requiredHHusky said:
I'm sure a couple million (more?) deaths and tens of millions of cases would have no effect on the economy.RaceBannon said:
Seems like you would have that answer to justify destroying the economyHHusky said:
Next Monday? We'll probably be at 25,000. Maybe that's optimistic.YellowSnow said:So what does the cordwood count need to be by week’s end to count as max carnage?
What would the count be without the "overreaction"?
Like Sherman through Atlanta.SECDAWG said:Can tell y’all this, local hospital has 12 bed ICU, 7 patients on vent from C19.

Calling this a “make-or-break” week in Los Angeles’s battle against the coronavirus, Mayor Eric Garcetti warned Angelenos on Monday, April 6 to stick to the strategy of staying home as much as possible.
“This will be a critical week in our fight against this crisis,” he said during a briefing delivered from the city’s daily briefing.
The number of confirmed cases has topped 6,000, with 15 additional deaths announced Monday bringing the total deaths countywide to 147. Meanwhile a study found that fewer ventilators, ICU beds, and overall beds may be needed than previously anticipated.
And there appeared to be a slowdown in the uptick in COVID-19 cases, with the 7% increase the first time since March 14 that it has been in the single digit.
The ruse is collapsing -

Plus 1,039 Nationally today. Finally might get over the 2k hump. CA remains shocking low though in terms of body count.

Stock market way up and fatality rates way down from earlier projections.
At some point can we have an actual discussion about going back to work without the usual army of hysterical ninnies calling everyone Hitler? -

https://hotair.com/archives/allahpundit/2020/04/07/cdc-chief-actual-death-toll-much-much-much-much-lower-wh-model-thanks-social-distancing/I’d been feeling mildly optimistic lately about the progress of the epidemic, but if this guy and his useless agency are feeling optimistic too then I’m firmly pessimistic again.
Weren’t Birx and Fauci complaining just a few days ago that Americans weren’t doing enough social distancing to avoid the grim scenario of 100,000-240,000 people dead, as the White House model projects? How did we get from that to the head of CDC going full wowzers about social distancing efforts in a radio interview in less than a week?
Why can’t these people ever seem to get their story straight?The early predictions of the COVID-19’s expected death toll in the U.S. assumed about half of Americans “would pay attention to the recommendations,” CDC Director Robert Redfield said Monday in an interview with AM 1030 KVOI Radio in Tucson, Ariz.
“What we’re seeing is a large majority of the American public are taking the social distancing recommendations to heart,” he said. “And I think that’s the direct consequence of why you’re seeing the numbers are going to be much, much, much, much lower than would have been predicted by the models.”
CNN confirmed today that the famously opaque White House model does indeed assume that only 50 percent of Americans would heed the recommendations about social distancing. But … why the hell would they think that when 95 percent of the country is now under stay-at-home orders? Practically all nonessential businesses are closed. Where exactly are Americans supposed to congregate, even if they wanted to flout the social distancing guidelines?A week after unveiling a stunning projection for the number of people who would die from coronavirus in the US — 100,000 to 240,000 — White House officials have yet to fully explain how they arrived at those numbers…
A source close to the task force said it’s possible the eventual death toll will be “way under” the 100,000-to-240,000 figure.
A key factor driving the large estimate was a crucial assumption, discussed internally by task force officials, that only 50% of Americans would observe the government’s stringent social distancing guidelines, the source said. That calculation was not shared widely. In reality, a much larger number — 90% — is observing the government’s guidelines, US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams said in several interviews this week. -

And here it comes....we didn't completely overreact putting millions of people out of work for no reason, because look, this social distancing thing that almost nobody did anyway because Wal Mart was always full maybe sort of worked so here follow this red dot on the carpet while we go out the back door....GrundleStiltzkin said:I’d been feeling mildly optimistic lately about the progress of the epidemic, but if this guy and his useless agency are feeling optimistic too then I’m firmly pessimistic again.
