Syrmax Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 2 hours ago, cny rider said: If anyone is really interested in all the mechanics, I wholly agree with looking at Calculated Risk and particularly reading the Ubernerd series of posts. It was incredibly informative and well written, and fascinating to watch as it unfolded in real time back then. One of the authors, a woman who went by Tanta, died of cancer as the whole thing was unraveling. Yes you are correct! I couldn't think of her name but it was Tanta. It was a real eye opener blog.

MJO812 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 " Gov. Lamont's plan to reopen parts of the state by May 20 may be pushed back." Nooyi said Thursday that May 20 date is not a reopening date but a date that they will have a reopening plan to present to the governor. She said a gradual reopening is more likely in June and would continue through the rest of the year. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/coronavirus/live-at-4pm-governor-lamont-to-provide-update-on-connecticuts-coronavirus-response/2259947/%3famp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortmax Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Another prelim study suggesting a much higher infection population resulting in a much lower mortality rate: New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo revealed Thursday that preliminary results from a coronavirus antibody study show the statewide infection rate is 13.9 percent, which would mean around 2.7 million residents could have carried the disease.

I agree with Rich that this is far too small a sample size though. I know people who thought they had it a month ago go to get the antibody test because they couldn’t get tested at the time when they were sick because they didn’t have enough test. Obviously the results are going to be skewed when more people who have had symptoms are the ones going to get tested vs people who have never had any symptoms. There’s no doubt there’s far more people that are infected that confirmed cases but do we really think there’s 10x as many people infected as currently known, I’m not sure. Even if that’s the case you still have a 0.6 death rate which is 6 times deadlier than seasonal flu... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
