The last time you posted this, I asked what questions I had avoided. The crickets were unmistakeable.
So you are saying, as of 8 weeks ago today, the excess deaths in Florida are about 118? There had been about 2300 covid deaths in Florida on that date. It is interesting that NYC has roughly the same number of excess deaths as covid deaths. I believe excess deaths out number covid deaths in NYC.
When did Florida first start underreporting deaths? The data was accurate and reliable, until it wasn’t.
If Florida is underreporting covid deaths, it will show in a large number of excess deaths. I think you are saying that is not currently the case, but apologies if I have misinterpreted.
Sorry...my baby had a rough day in the ICC here in Minnesota so these [redacted] measuring contests between posters take on an extra special kind of insignificance for me today. When I really want to get depressed I think about how I’ll have to sell my second child to pay for the medical care of my first.
Count your blessings that your actual problems are so small you get to come on here and try to convince strangers to accept your type of preferred bias. Things could always be worse.
Nice day, hot day, here in SC.
Most public schools are going to a hybrid (2 days a week at school) schedule here to start the year. Most independent schools are going back 5 days a week (smaller classes, no busses, etc.). Public school sports are ALLEGEDLY starting back, just 2-3 weeks late.
Cases seemed to have leveled at least here, with a lagging death rate that has risen. Nothing "exponential," but hospitalizations still ticking up. Hope we have peeked and will start easing back down.
Mask participation has steadily increased, as has general sanity when it comes to doing simple things to stay safe.
Okay then. I had asked if a couple were tested every day for say 9 days and 1 tested positive and 1 negative each day, according to your method that equals 1 positive and 9 negative so 10% of them had the virus. My method has 50% positive, Which is correct? You replied that nobody gets 9 negative tests rather than answer which is correct. If I add that that the couple was Stephen and Katie Miller maybe you can understand that it would indeed be possible. i had decided to let it be but if you insist. What % of S and K Miller were positive?
I said I can't give a number because excess death data runs about 8 weeks behind. I said the 118 were non-resident deaths which are not in the numbers reported to CDC. I also explained the likely 500+ are not in there due to excessive reporting delays (a la Texas yesterday). These don't count the excess deaths. Do you not read or choose to not understand? I am done with your acting.
What's going on with reporting in Texas? Are they adding previously unreported deaths to the count?
Interesting.
Here are the CDC numbers for 2019-20. It would be unfair to compare the entire year, since Florida didn’t record its first death until March 7th. Granted, there may be a fair number of deaths from Covid prior to awareness of the virus, but those deaths would not count as being “undercounted.”
During the time period of the end of week 10 until week 22, 2019, the state of Florida recorded all causes of deaths at 53826.
All causes of death for the same week 10-week 22, 2020 were 57376, which is an excess of 3550 deaths. On June 1, Florida had 2640 covid deaths.
A difference of 910.
Cumulative totals from week 10-week 27, 2019 were 73397.
Cumulative totals from week 10-week 27, 2020 are 79070.
A difference of 5673. On July 7 there 3873 covid
A difference of 1800.
Have the number of covid deaths been underreported in Florida?
It certainly seems possible
That’s the question you’ve been stewing over? D.umb question.
As for the rest, I was simply asking for clarification. It f you’ll read my response then you’ll see I’ve given an honest analysis. No act. Loosen your panties.
Mood...
Changing the process to take out built in delays, Akin to my complaint on Florida where yesterday they report 186 deaths following 77 Monday and 77 Sunday. So the total over the 3 days was 340 but the by date analysis shows only 102 of those occurred 7/25-27 which is the period it would cover were it a timely process.
What it doesn't address is whether or not "Presumptive" deaths are adequately reported given the lack of sufficient testing to identify all Cases.
@Bankwalker Thanks for the research on Florida excess deaths. The 1800 is likely to grow as some death certificates for those that die at home take up to 8 weeks to be finalized due to autopsies etc. Not sure if these are significant numbers or not. Maybe check in another few weeks?
Take care sir. I know your baby is in good hands, the people in that field don't do this just as a job. My wife works in the NICU and I can't count how many times people come up and hug her and thank her and send pictures of their kids because she treats them like they are her own and I know most are that way.
The doctor from the breitbart video going around has some interesting views. She believes alien DNA is currently being used in medical treatments, vaccines are being developed to eliminate religion, Harry Potter encourages people to be ok with demons, and reproductive problems in women such as ovarian cysts are caused by having dream sex with demons. I couldn't think of a better person to promote HCQ.
Really sorry to see this, Kasey. Good luck to you and your family.
She’s nuts. She’s getting all the focus as well and the other doctors that spoke on their positive experiences are being ignored because they don’t have a wacky history.
Attacking me is uncalled for. And you have no idea what problems I or anyone else on here may be facing. With that said,I'll be praying for you and your baby, and I'm sure many others are as well.
