dynato Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Everyone's favorite model (IHME) posted their predictions on when certain states may ease social distancing. As of April 21st, they placed North Dakota at July 16th. Get ready for another 6 weeks of two more weeks if Burgum is using this model to make decisions http://www.healthdata.org/covid/updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it is relevant because like the stock market, past trends do not indicate future performance. But, they do help give you an informed bet on what might be to come.

dynato Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Also for anyone curious, Dartmouth put together a project to map current cases and recent case growth on a population basis. Not a single region in California is in the top 50 for cases on a population basis. Only one city, LA, is in the top fifty on a percentage case growth basis. California is doing surprisingly well compared to other states https://test.dartmouthatlas.org/hrr-mapping/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 CA has mostly adhered to a shelter in place directive for the past 5 weeks. Incubation period + onset of symptoms + hospitalization + death is typically around 35 days. Shorter if you skip the vent (which if you’re 55+ doesn’t really matter as barring a miracle you will not survive after being intubated with COVID). So we’re rapidly approaching the end in CA, with the exception of SNFs and the homeless that are driving this secondary surge of this week. Antibody tests and herd immunity over the next 30 days, non dna-editor vaccine by fall. This becomes an annual 25000-50000 person killer like the flu. meanwhile the US economy won’t recover for years...the debt component will drive increased taxes or inflation or socialist controls. Made it really tough on the kiddos. Imagine a world where it takes $300k/year to have a Barelyvmiddle class life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Looks like Willmar might be going along the same path as Worthington in regards to a hot spot. The turkey plant there closed up for two weeks. Nobles County (where Worthington is in) is up to 325 cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Edit: From the USA Today: Cristina Cuomo says she treated her coronavirus with Clorox baths, vitamin drips: Experts react Quote Clorox bleach baths As President Donald Trump appeared to question Thursday whether disinfectant could be used to treat coronavirus patients – to the dismay of medical professionals – Cuomo says she adds "½ cup ONLY of Clorox" to her bathwater to "combat the radiation and metals in my system and oxygenate it." "We want to neutralize heavy metals because they slow-up the electromagnetic frequency of our cells, which is our energy field, and we need a good flow of energy," Cuomo explains. She adds there is "no danger in doing this," comparing it to "a simple naturopathic treatment." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with Florida. Some of the beaches are opening back up. Escambia County officials meet on the 28th to discuss opening up Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key beaches. Also, there is about 15 miles of public park beaches between Pensacola Beach and Navarre Beach for people to get out and enjoy the sun, wind, surf, water.... Plenty of room for a family to go out and enjoy and keep distance from others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess they have similar working conditions to the pork plants and other meat packing plants. However, that is just a guess and I don't have any inside knowledge. Nevertheless, it will be interesting to watch what happens in Willmar and see if they do go down the same path as Worthington in terms of an outbreak. Farming was already hurting with the pork plants going down, turkey plants going down would be another blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
