"...make your most educated guess..." Educated? |
"The only source that counts is the Johns Hopkins database..." Except that it is not exactly the source, but rather a repository of information from worldwide sources. It is only as good as accuracy of the information it gets. |
"...mortality rate in Wuhan where the Virus originated is much much higher than the rest of China" Could it be that much much higher number of cases overwhelms the medical system and overall care suffers? Going back to those 750000 ventilators and who was supposed to run them. |
"Does one side matter more than the other?" To those who post these annoying political blah blah blahs here, apparently yes. |
geoffkait, Large number of children in population may change mortality/morbidity statistics significantly. It may be more telling once the numbers are adjusted for age. If I remember correctly, out of 40 people who succumbed in the U.S.A., 9 or so were from the same nursing home. That clouds the bigger picture a lot at this point. |
"We haven't been able to do large scale testing so the numbers will be skewed." There may be more than just a sample size at play. That is what epidemiologists are for. |
nonoise, "Already did. Just go off on a tangent like you? Not likely." I am not sure I understand this, but whatever it is, I appreciate it.
|
geoffkait, "In the US the numbers are 1537 cases and 40 deaths." Was is stratified by age and comorbidities? Where are the numbers from?

nonoise,
You are really boring with this.
How about you tell us how you prepare for the coming days? Maybe we can all get some useful idea. |
nonoise,
"Only you can bring up politics when it doesn’t suit your fancy?"
I do not bring up the politics, ever. I see annoyance in your constant banging on it. Leave it out of here.
I apologize, but I have not ran out of my talking points. I refuse to have talking points about politics on an audio thread casually talking about viral infections.
You did voice your pleasure with your posts being deleted, but it seems that you enjoy whole threads being deleted, too. |
nonoise, "ad nauseam"
You are correct. Those are the words I was looking for to describe your insistence on polluting these innocent threads with political diatribes irrelevant to the topic.
Stop making nuisance of yourself here. |
"To bring it up as an argument because you don’t wanna hear it is being political, dontcha think?" No. It is called "being frustrated". Give us a break with political conspiracies. It is really getting boring. |
t_ramey, "Looks like the usual suspects here doing their best to interject politics, again..." Yes, it is getting a little tiring.
|
"It will be an interesting study to revisit this thread in about 6 months or so." I doubt that this thread will stand that long. |
Maybe not learn, but take previously discarded-as-unacceptable thoughts and present them as valid. |
How long will this thread last? Virus threads get shut down and soon after the new ones sprout. Virus thread virus? VTV-20? |

It is possible to learn.
