Brayze_II 05/02/20 5:16:12 AM #58:	Well, we've reduced the transmission rate significantly with the lockdown, new cases and deaths have plateaued (roughly), at least judging by the information we have. Information from many countries is fairly spotty however. I do think this is a bigger deal than 9/11 (did before as well), and am expecting a considerably larger death toll by the time this is finished, if it finishes. Maybe 600,000 or so by August, maybe more after that depending on subsequent waves. We'll need to rely on an estimate for the actual death toll because who knows what's happening in places like India or Nigeria. --- I'm am hungry I want some lasaga <cite>Brayze_II posted [p:938472128] in "Real...

Brayze_II 05/02/20 5:53:18 AM #62:	UltimaterializerX posted... Almost everyone infected in America are older people who barely left their house or had any contact with others since this started, because it is 100% true that they have an incredibly high risk of getting it. The immune system once a human being hits 50 just can't fight this thing off. It was correct to limit contact with at-risk individuals. However, older folks have been getting it anyway, because the virus can live up to 3 hours airborne and is a pretty tough MF. That is right out of UPenn and confirmed by every lab that's tested it, including mine. This raises the issue of whether social distancing meant anything, because 6 feet with a mask that isn't M95 has no affect whatsoever -- some people think even M95 is pointless and that a respirator with specific cartridges is the way to go. MIT mentioned that a distance of up to 30 feet is what would have actually helped. Interesting - can you direct me to the US papers? I have institutional access to most journals and a lot of COVID ones are free anyway. I have a lockdown analysis from Italy based on their epidemiological data (https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/early/2020/04/22/2004978117.full.pdf) which gives a modest 18% decrease for their first efforts, boosted to 45% after stricter methods. It's a model of course, plus Italy isn't the US, and the characteristics of the outbreak are going to be altered by geography and behavior. I had heard that younger cohorts were also being hit in the US but I'm having a rough time actually finding data. --- I'm am hungry I want some lasaga <cite>Brayze_II posted [p:938472701] in "Real...

Why is it always the people who are incredibly dismissive, elitist, and sarcastic toward me (and others) who try to police my social behavior and accuse me of being "openly antagonistic." Yet everything that I say is backed up by tangible evidence, and I explain my position on everything. But you know what, I'll answer you anyway. Despite the fact you are doing exactly what you accuse me of doing. You don't know why this number gives me confidence? Really? I'm talking about your statistical likelihood of death or survival after contracting the disease by location. This is the most important stat you could possibly look at. I feel like I shouldn't need to explain this to anyone but... dude... whether you live or die is pretty much your highest priority in life. I determined my position based on hard data. You seem to have determined your position based on the fact that you hate america so much you are willing to ignore the data. Like I do not understand how you think you have the intellectual authority here. iiicon posted... which isn't true, as heads of government in various parts of the world are estimating anywhere from 1% of the population (B.C this week, Ohio back in March [!!]) to ~5% (Quebec this week), to 20% (New York City last week) have been infected. these are very large numbers! and American states are trying to open up in this environment! this isn't a good response! It is true. Looking at specific US cities with high infection rates does not somehow dispute or disprove the hard data that we have sitting in front of us. If you want to criticize the US response -as a whole- you need to be prepared to accept the data -as a whole-. You can't just pick the worst possible cases in specific locations and then claim that this applies to the entire united states. iiicon posted... which also isn't true, as American poison control centres saw a surge immediately following a Trump press conference where he suggested ingesting disinfectant. I can't possibly see how you think this somehow refutes what I said. You do understand that dumb people drinking disinfectant is not an indicator of the quality of the US healthcare system as a whole, right? It's incredibly disrespectful to hard working doctors and nurses to hold views like this. iiicon posted... all of your posts are just you riffing off of something and not fully internalizing them or understanding the context they're in, so like, why not be glib, there's not going to be anything interesting here! If you think the conversation isn't interesting then shut the fuck up. Nobody is asking you to participate in a conversation that you clearly know very little about, and seem to only want to proliferate the spread of fear, misinformation, and negative attitudes toward some of the best healthcare responders in the world. All you do is create pointless noise. Why am I rude to people like you?

A, Trump's talk about injection was in response to talking about using bleach and isopropyl alcohol to disinfect surfaces. B. He specifically said injection. C. Trump's defense of the quotes isn't to specify he was talking about an actual procedure, it was to claim he was being sarcastic to be a shit-stirrer.

Wanglicious 05/02/20 2:01:33 PM #83:	azuarc posted... Can you tell me what this is about? I have a summer job that's being cancelled and my boss called to tell me he applied for some sort of loan or subsidy or something, and that he was about to get it approved until he got to the last step and the bank discovered he pays us with a 1099 rather than a W-2. Apparently I have to apply for it myself, but he didn't explain at all what he was talking about, so I don't even know which program that was. It makes me wonder what else I'm not aware of that's out there. if you go on unemployment, you get an extra check by the federal government of $600. this is not adjusted for new salaries, it's flat bonus and will continue for another 3 months. if you did collect previously there is also a 13 week extension for everyone with the same rules on it. the catch is whether or not you count for unemployment. if you do, cool. technically there may be a checkbox saying 'hey is coronavirus affecting you here' but at this point everyone is and your summer job would count as that too. i don't know if you're working right now or not so i don't know your specific case but if you're not working, you should absolutely be collecting. it's a genuine salary-level amount. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. <cite>Wanglicious posted [p:938488822] in "Real...

Ngamer64 05/03/20 11:13:29 PM #85:	UPDATE: About to pass a quarter million deaths worldwide, with 3.6 million infections. The US had its worst day so far on Thursday with nearly 3k deaths, and will hit 70k total on Monday. The scary thing is, the virus takes 17 days to kill on average, which means this latest (and largest) spike we've been seeing in the last few days are from people who were exposed to the virus around Easter time. And, unfortunately, that's around the time the weather started to warm up across the Midwest and people here started to relax their social distancing. So... might not be looking so hot nationally over the next couple weeks! As for B8, looks like COVID will take this rematch with around 75%, up from ~54% in the previous poll. And I can't say I disagree with that assessment. Which begs the question... @Mac_Arrowny are you surprised the virus has spiraled out of control this quickly? --- Advo bested even The Show hosts in 2018, yowza! board8.wikia.com \| thengamer.com/xstats <cite>Ngamer64 posted [p:938568315] in "Real...
