    Shutdown the state. Eliminate competition. Newsom’s winery gets to stay open. Profit!

    Yella has to account for the fact that Florida has a much older population...it’s basically people 75+ dying from this.

    500 or 950 out of a million doesn’t matter.

    It’s foolish to destroy small businesses for some old people near death anyhow. As Obama said, give the Olds pills and let them die in a fog of opiates as life goes forward for everyone else.

    Striking data considering:

    1) Similar Climate
    2) High Density Populations in big cities
    3) Completely opposite public health strategy

    Lockdowns clearly don't work. But we knew that.




    CA just needed more time to get their guys in there. But still, they've got some work to do to catch up to FL.

    FL - 950 Deaths / 1M
    CA - 563 Deaths / 1M

    We'll have to see how it shakes out in the end.
    Also noteworthy, one state has a cratered economy and one doesn’t. Similar total deaths, Cali in the lead there currently.
    No. Not similar total deaths. FL almost double per capita.

    I think the lock downs are mostly FS and counter productive. But let’s CA cordwood has been way lower than FL and that’s fact.
    Looked it up yesterday, CA at 22k, FL at 20k.
    Yella is talking deaths per million. More people in Cali, hence a lower rate of death. He's also saying that Cali might catch up because nothing we do seems to really work in the long run.
    He said total deaths not similar. I showed that was wrong. But anyways, you see totals referenced when it serves and you see ratios when it serves.

    Might want to look at the age range of those dying. Just a thought.

    My bad if I misread your earlier comment. At the end of the day, per capita is the more relevant stat than total deaths.

    Yeah, I would suspect higher percentage of really olds in FL is playing a role here.

    CA is also 40% Hispanic compared with 23% for Florida. From what I can gather there is a higher prevalence of co-morbidities (e.g, diabetes) within the Hispanic community.

    Also lots of Cuban's in Florida are largely of Spanish ancestry. Lots of Hispanics in Cali have lots of Indian blood. Indians have a genetic prevalence to develop diabetes in a high carb/sugar diet.
