Not alone.
Mark,
Your second post helps me understand a bit more where you are coming from. Thanks.
I'd say a few things.
How can you spread the virus if you are not sick? Seriously? This virus can be spread by you even when you don’t have symptoms. You may not know you are sick.
Folks keep throwing numbers out as if to say this virus is meaningless. What I can’t get past is why did Communist China, then Europe, and half the world shut down if this is meaningless?
Update.
im admitted to the hospital. I’ve done X ray, EKG, CT scan, and Nuclear perfusion test. Think i May have Pulmonary Embolisms. Covid is attacking my organs and not so much my breathing. My 02 sat is actually 100. I’m trying to keep in good spirits. Waiting for test results. I’ll keep you dawg fans updated.
Ignore yesterday as the numbers reported Sat, Sun, Mon are actually numbers reported to DOH Fri, Sat, Sun when most all administrative staff were off hence under-reported. There were 23 reported today. The 7 day average cases as of June 17th was 864 so just using raw number reported today the mortality rate is 23/864 or 2.7%. Tomorrow will tell if this is a good number or not as the holiday impact is "smoothed". Today's 7 day case average is 2,741 a new high suggesting that the deaths July 27th will be 73. I have used 69 in my forecast (2.5%) but would point out that the positive rate so far in July is 13.2% compared with 6% in June . This suggests that cases are much higher than identified due to inadequate testing. The deaths could in fact be closer to 100 per day come the last week of July.
Reminder - improved (wider) testing -> higher cases found, lower positive rate reported and less severity in cases -> lower death rate per case.
Put yourself in the doctors hands. i am very much hoping that you get well soon. My brother has some issues ( not Covid) and said today he is making 2 steps forward and 1 step back and seemed disillusioned with his progress. i told him that a slow recovery beats a fast alternative. Don't ever give up, just get well!
Praying for you, fellow dawg.
I've done the PE thing - it sucks but you can come back from it for sure.
Fight this thing off! We are all behind you!
Absolutely. 🙏🙏
Praying for you! I hope you get well soon.
Please give us a link where Hannity said it was all made up. He said it was politized and the death rate was low. Even your great Faucci was telling everyone to do on cruises be normal etc. in March. You are showing your true colors with that one statement. Pretty sure I saw Pelosi walking around China Town telling people not to worry. Funny how you single out Hannity.
Wearing a mask is now mandatory in Clarke County through August 4th.
I work in system analytics for the government and just had an encounter that some on here might find interesting. We were doing performance database and system tests on a government medical system in south east Georgia. Everything was going to plan until we got to the database capability portion of the the test. With C19 happening everywhere, I have been attempting to make sure that security and data accuracy for every system that I touch is at the highest quality. After going through their database, their system was unable to distinguish multiple positive test for the same individual. The table would show name, date, address, positive (Y/N), and notified (Y/N) but could not merge like nomenclature. I asked the admins if they were aware of this for reporting purposes and they told me they would get their engineering team to look into it. I found this interesting because positive individuals take a minimum of two tests for clearance to go back to work.
Does calling it a hoax count as saying it’s all made up? You can see him do that (and his flip-flop to say he never said that) in the first 20 seconds here.
From Wikipedia: A hoax is a falsehood deliberately fabricated to masquerade as the truth.
But it was OK for Pelosi and Faucci to tell people not to worry about it? As I said that early in the virus most were saying don't worry about it. Faucci and Pelosi actually later than February 28th. The video you posted are also snippets of course.
No need to get into a ____ measuring contest guys. Pretty sure we can find misinformation on both sides. If you have new Covid data to share, go for it. But we're not getting into a he said she said argument. Thanks
