There is also a delaying factor as it takes patients time to get sick and become critical. Relying on an average of the world and what the Drs were saying. Hopefully they end up being lower but I don’t think it is 2% based on what the rest of the world is seeing — agree with you that there are all kinds of variables that can change it but suspect it will be close at the end of the day. |

The one I posted from Iceland kind of goes along with the thought that’s there’s a lot of asymptomatic patients and very mild cases out there that never get tested.
That’s bad in that they can spread it to more people and quicker But could be looked at as being good since it will allow it to burn thru the population quicker and immunity achieved. It will also theoretically lower the death rate substantially. The way I kind of interpret that is that it may not actually be that much more virulent than the flu, but essentially we’re gonna do flu season (which is normally 6 months) in about a month woth a virus that we have no immunization to and have never experienced it before so no immunity |

Those ****ing scum bags need to experience the worst version of this virus and not be able to get treatment because they stole it from the hospital. |

oaklandhater has a new website up. https://www.covidactnow.org/
In all seriousness, it's pretty bleak when even the state with the fewest cases (WV) shows 3-month quarantine NOW. |

NYC is running subways (I understand the point about people needing it to get around and doctors getting to work). Not sure how you stop the spread while people continue to get together. |
