And: "If you're going to dance on someone's constitutional rights you better have a good reason, you better have a really good reason, not just a theory," he said. "The data is showing us it's time to lift (the stay-at-home orders) so if we don't lift, what is the reason?" Noymer of UC Irvine disagreed with the doctors' premise that COVID-19 is as widespread as Erickson and Massihi think, saying the idea that nearly 5 million Californians have had the virus is a gross overestimate. The people tested in California were not a random sample; they were mostly people who were symptomatic, Noymer said. Therefore, extrapolating the positive test rate across the entire population of the state is not an accurate way to arrive at how widespread the virus is. And even if 12 percent of the state has had the virus, that still leaves 88 percent vulnerable to it, Noymer said. "They’re advancing factual inaccuracies and playing off the esoteric nature of the mortality stats to make a case that the economy should be reopened," Noymer said. "I agree it should be reopened, but it should be opened deliberately, bit by bit, and informed by science. Not informed by a misreading of the mortality." |

Bowser can we get a brief summary? I'm have a busy day of jacking off, playing video games, as posting on ChiefsPlanet to watch a 90 minute video.

What's the main driver limiting the testing capabilities? I know IL has committed to testing >10K per day, but I've never heard how they got to that metric or why it wasn't attainable prior. Is it an available resources thing, manufacturing capabilities? What's it take to make more testing available?

You only have x amount of test kits You only have x amount of resources to perform the tests You only have x amount of resources to process the tests And then you have to actually get the people to come and get tested |

I have read a few things now where scientists have said that most likely over the next couple of years this virus will become just another virus that causes sniffles and we Lysol away like the other Corona viruses we deal with every day. Last edited by petegz28; 04-25-2020 at 10:00 AM.. |
