If you look at California so far today they are trending in the right direction but I fear that leaving beaches open as late as last week is going to result in another spike. I don’t understand why people can’t grasp how congregating now is what causes this to explode later. But the steps that have been taken seem to be helping as the rate of spread is slowing day over day. Need to see where we are in a week to get a better grasp on it. |

But that doesn’t matter. What matters is keeping the spread down so that the cases that do become symptomatic are lower and we don’t put stress on the available hospital beds, ventilators, doctors, and nurses. Because when those things start to max out the death rate can skyrocket because there is no available care. Slowing the spread and having more treatments/making more ventilators is all that matters at this point. |

Unlikely.
Ice can actually preserve viruses. They have found that viruses locked away in n permafrost can be active after thawing. Apparently it is not just a Hollywood trope. |

Missouri now has 183 cases. How many people have actually been tested? Who knows.

New Yorkers fleeing their state’s house arrest measures and heading to Florida.
