  1. Went for a 30 mile bike ride today in the hills of south wales. Yeah, I'm officially done with anything below 60 degrees
  2. I go back and forth but everyone I know that has one says its the greatest experience in their life. I kind of want to experience what that is like. That is why I only want one, If I don't like it I can still handle it. If I enjoy it, maybe I'll have 2. But two is too expensive and too much work, and I won't be able to travel as much. The perfect combo is 1 kid and 2 dogs.
  3. How many would have died anyways from flu/pneumonia/old age/cancer/heart disease? Impossible to decipher this.
  4. I watched it live. It's like I'm living in the twilight zone.
  5. Yeah, I can't vote for this guy. I love science, he hates it.
  6. Most of these people are making more then unemployment maximum. Can’t believe medical professionals are getting laid off during a viral epidemic. https://www.wkbw.com/news/local-news/catholic-health-to-furlough-up-to-1-200-workers
  7. I'm going insane. Snow/rain/wind/cold EVERYDAY, and I'm forced to stay inside.
  8. #COVID19 Preliminary results from N=3000 sero-survey in New York State found 13.9% tested positive for antibodies against the #coronavirus 21.2% in NYC tested positive, which would imply 1.78 million people!

  9. If the first recorded death from Corona related was Feb 6th in California that means this virus went across this country unmitigated for 8-10 weeks. More people then we think already have antibodies and would assume the majority of people are asymptomatic thus lowering the mortality rate substantially.
  10. The first death (so far) has been traced back to California on Feb 6th, in which that victim likely had it a minimum of 3-4 weeks before that. Who is to say that California has a large percentage of the population with antibodies already? Who is to say that NYC is the hardest hit area because the mutation of the virus was stronger there, not just because there were more cases there? There are so many unknowns. https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2020/04/22/us/22reuters-health-coronavirus-usa-california.html
  11. It's too small of a sample size still. But I agree, sorry looked to quickly at the numbers.
  12. Can we really compare the mortality rate of the seasonal flu which has a vaccine with COVID-19 which has no herd immunity or a vaccine? I don't think we can.
  13. I do understand the numbers. 20% of the population has already had it, herd immunity is 40%.
  14. This is HUGE news. If 20% of the USA already has this we are already close to herd immunity which is 40%. We can thus start slowly opening the country back up in stages and not have to worry about overwhelming the hospitals.
  15. Props to all the top 1% lobbyist negotiating for the lowly folk.
  16. https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/23/politics/gyms-reopening-lobbying-coronavirus-trump-phase-one/index.html
  17. I would have been safer in New Zealand. New Zealand after 4 weeks lockdown has only 2.86 deaths per million and 2/3 of cases have recovered. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2020/04/coronavirus-6-new-cases-of-covid-19-in-new-zealand.html
  18. Ventilators don't work In New York’s largest hospital system, 88 percent of coronavirus patients on ventilators didn’t make it https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/04/22/coronavirus-ventilators-survival/?utm_source=reddit.com
