Any doctor, scientists, epidemiologist, etc. that supports the notion the protest gatherings are okay due to the content while others are not, are letting their emotions dictate their thoughts instead of sticking with the science. Pretty simple. Either all large gatherings are okay or they aren’t. If you want an example of why there is distrust in scientists on this topic and others from many people there you go.

I was hopeful we could avoid a surge but it's looking more and more likely we just happen to be on deck. |

Sure, they're better off than we are now, but we'll see. Isn't that how I'm supposed to do it? Wait a few weeks and see? |

As with anything we are going to have to start defining what is an acceptable level of risk vs what is an acceptable level of locking down. For all intents and purposes it seems like we have found a bit of a middle-ground for the most part here locally. Businesses are being allowed to operate to a degree but we are still not wide open. By the same token cases have increased some but we are not seeing the deaths and hospital resource shortages. Until we develop effective therapeutics I think this is life as we know it. |

I'm amused each time I pass the "temporarily" shut down Urgent Care building off Shawnee Mission. Not like the metro area could use decentralized point of care access points or anything right now, right?

If Texas and Arizona and Florida and California keep coming down as they are which is pretty quick and faster than i thought they would, we have some hope. I'm actually coming around on the fact that I don't think we'll have as bad or as much of a second wave as we thought, simply because the outbreak is so widespread now, by then we'll be fairly far along the immune spectrum. |

Gov of Missouri and Dr. Williams has stated that the KC area is showing some real improvement. The R0 is actually below 1 in the KC area. St. Louis is kind of a shit show with an R0 of 1.6 - the rest of the state is hovering just above the 1 mark. Central Missouri not doing so well either.
Said hospitalizations are stable. Doing a lot more testing compared to even a month ago. The CDC is heading to St. Louis to try and help out. |
