    oh shit, yes. you're right. missed that one. 296 reported on the 11th for the 10th. the MD dashboard didn't start showing new hospitalizations until April 3rd

    The data is also part of the feature services I mentioned yesterday -- MD Department of IT hopes to have it all available to the public for download through MD iMap (for those familiar).

    yes. this week has been especially bad regarding new hospitalizations, and its not surprising given how long it takes people from having mild symptoms to needing more care. 151 on the 12th for the 11th 115 on the 13th for the 12th 147 on the 14th for the 13th 109 on the 15th for the 14th

    i think everyone needs to start telling themselves that things like going to the community pool this summer, won't be happening. Concerts - nope. Sporting events - nope. Firework shows - nope. On and on and on. Its going to be quite some time before we are back to "normal".

    its honestly common sense. would you expect a fire fighter to show up to a fire without an oxygen tank and masks? a police officer with out a vest or gun? i hope this pandemic opens the eyes to many on how our front line workers need more than what they get on any given day.

    Sigh. No. Its not an either or type of thing. Just because you shouldn't use regional numbers doesnt mean you go to county by county checkpoints. There are options in the middle.

    if you think the protests in MI are bad, imagine how awful people would riot if we started doing county by county checkpoints

    But even regional numbers shouldn't decide, thats still too big of a scope...in my opinion.

    which is it? nationwide numbers decide, or local numbers decide? you're kind of flipping back and forth here.

    they take daily national numbers and use that to train a model for local predictions? Sure. Its a good visual on spread, but its not complete. How can you put incomplete numbers into a model and expect a reasonable outcome? would you put incomplete numbers in one of your water line surveys and tell your work that its all good, that line wont be impacted if someone digs nearby?

    No, not sort of. Cuomo shouldn't be looking at nationwide numbers to decide how to reopen New York State.

    its not meaningless but its also not super helpful either.

    I think the point being discussed is that we cannot trust the CFR numbers and use it as a good indicator moving forward. the data isnt complete. cases are going unreported. deaths are going unreported.

    COVID-19 Talk

    I think early stuff, CFR numbers, etc.

    COVID-19 Talk

    yes of course. but that narrative, again, is to be expected. if we hadn't closed down things and the death toll was 10x what it is now, you'd have people saying we didn't do enough and everyone in charge has got to go. there is no happy middle. and those who are happy in the middle aren't saying it out loud because they know their place.
