I am in NY and the only way you can stop the virus is very early before it gets going. New York, after that initial few weeks, has done a great job in stomping this bug so far.

The curve naturally goes up, peaks, then goes down. NY graph looks the same as the UK or Sweden. |

Sweden is finally driving down cases. Want to guess why?

As bad as the numbers seem to be down here it sure doesnt seem like anyone cares. I still see barely half the people wearing masks. People call my wifes salon and cuss her out because they require a mask and they dont want to wear it.
Im getting to the point where I wear a mask for others but I simply dont sweat the numbers. If I get it I get it. People have to work, and if people dont take it upon themselves to wear masks than I guess we need to just let it run its course right? I just dont see any other way at this point. If you think people will run out and get the vaccine in droves you are kidding yourself. Some will for sure, Ive asked everyone I know if they will get it and its a resounding HELL NO |

Lay out the death charts averaged out weekly and NY and Sweden look exactly the same. Cases chart US: (This one uses current CDC estimate of .65 IFR (even though I think that is far too high). Plugging in with deaths and lag we find the true cases vs reported. https://twitter.com/Hold2LLC/status/...513920/photo/1 |

As a nation, we saw a decrease in new case growth just with mitigation efforts. And, it's just common sense. This thing is spread by humans. Do you acknowledge that places that opened up without seeing new case declines are seeing increases?

Detected cases does not equal actual cases. We brought the overall cases down by population resistance. It is pure hubris to believe we can now control nature to the degree that you think we can. We don't stop the common cold or flu. We have some vaccines for flu that we guess on. Sometimes we are right. Sometimes we are wrong. Yes, if you actually lock people down and then let them resume life and ramp up testing you will detect more cases. No surprise. |

Good, I'm glad that you acknowledge that. If you look at the amount and increase of testing, you will see that new case growth doesn't equal it. Not to mention positivity.

This is why I have ?onger on ignore. He plays these little games. Everyone knew what you mean by "detected cases aren't actual cases" but he must persist in his pedantic ways.

Hell, my wife got tested again today because she's taken the kids to the beach a few times this week, even though she doesn't have any symptoms. Creating data points is very helpful to the doctors and scientists that are studying this virus. |
