been monitoring the daily positive rate. During the peak (early April) the rate was consistently more than 10%, and even higher on days like this where overall samples were low. Now it's consistently between 5 and 8 percent.

good news for everyone but the dems
-
similar thing happening statewide. Positive test % consistently sitting around 5% now. -
It’s interesting they don’t make ICU utilization as % of capacity publicly available.
-
Never understood this stat. Seems like it’s only meaningful if it were an output of random testing. If people are really only getting tested with symptoms, then isnt just telling you that there is some other crud out there?

This is going to piss off the CoronaBros

yes. The IHME modeled that, but no one has actually made that into a real statistic.GrundleStiltzkin said:It’s interesting they don’t make ICU utilization as % of capacity publicly available.

Protecting that capacity was the chief goal & selling point, perhaps only, of required lockdowns in Washington at the outset. Not making it a public metric seems disingenuous. Hell, Jay should be spiking the ball on that.incremetal_progress said: -

They are down 30% right now over 'normal' traffic.
This is such a sham.

#mytexas has it published online in real-time. My county has been 25-33% ventilator capacity utilization the last couple weeks, about 50% ICU utilization.GrundleStiltzkin said:It’s interesting they don’t make ICU utilization as % of capacity publicly available.
I don’t know what’s normal but I can’t imagine that’s efficient -
I stopped taking the Jay Inslee graphs seriously the second time the data was manipulated in a desperate attempt to keep actual results anywhere close to the model.

Oregon has all of that info as well and has started to count recoveries. Of course they don't subtract them from the active cases. Because fear and control of course.LoneStarDawg said:

ICU's have many more people filling them for other ailments than Covid. But at no time did we get to 70% capacity.
Oregon is having their big protest on May 2nd. Unless Kate shocks the world and opens its back up beforehand of course. -

Heard the term “overwhelmed” a lot lately. Would like to know what that actually means. Must not be related to capacity because capacity isn’t an issue.

Yeah, watched that too. I love how his partner is cringing wanting to keep politics out of it, but you know in private they had this same conversation and he was all for it.GrundleStiltzkin said: -
Frankly, I wished he'd stopped at the paycheck part. I tend to agree, but easier to sound nutter on that. However, people getting paid convincing other people to say home for free, that's pretty obvious shit.huskyhooligan said:
