I guess I haven’t been around enough to notice until I went to his twitter and saw that’s basically all he’s doing. He’s the ultimate “look at me” douche canoe.

are you jealous?

Link no worky.. I don't doubt it, just curious about the details. I'm guessing they must be COVID admission/discharges, since that number too low to be just everyday census changes.

Sorry. I hate link URL's on my phone. They work when they want to.

You don't have to be old or sick to get hit hard with this thing.

Glad to hear he's getting better but I do take some issue with this line. Almost every single person actually getting sick from this already has issues or is over a certain age. Deaths are almost all that way. Sure there can be exceptions to everything but almost all people of a certain age group in perfect health will not get this or will not even know they have it without a test

I wonder how often this happens

 

[Mick]

I've already explained it a number of times for you.

50-70% cross-protection/prior immunity + c. 20% infection rate = herd immunity threshold

Are you saying its over? Where did these numbers come from?

 

[BigOrangeD]

You’re right, people will stop dying without those stupid tests.

They will just be categorized as something else like in China.

Oops. Nothing is reliable. Crazy!!!!!!!! You would think for someone as high of profile as him, they would get it right the first time. Wonder how many others out there think they have COVID-19 and don't?

Probably should stop testing unless you have symptoms and then make sure it's not common cold or flu.

So, go the Chinese route?

Why would you assume the negative test is the erroneous one?

He wanted to know what could be done to get US numbers more inline with the rest of the world. Basically do what the rest of the world is doing and that is test a lot less. It's simple math.

 

[BigOrangeD]

It may not be. Who heck knows anymore?

If you blame President Trump, you have to blame the media, politicians, and every governor for shutting everything down and crippling the country.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

We can't. Thats the problem testing is not accurate enough either way.

Larger point is the numbers can’t be trusted. Could be intentional or not but either way it’s time to move on and get back to normal we are in month 5 of this bull schiff

He's kinda right though. Trump has the national stage any time he wants it and could have absolutely controlled the narrative. Instead he spent weeks on tv starting childish fights with the media and blaming everyone else. Honestly he had no plan and surrounded himself with people who didn't have one either. He could have absolutely come out of this looking way better if he had dropped the ego and need for confrontation. He will own the L forever

You make it sound so simple, Justin.

You suggested yesterday that quarantining the infected and keeping the older people separated was a good strategy.

I was attempting to followup on that, and ask if we have mass infections in schools, should we quarantine the students in the school?

If he had come out and told states what they had to do they would have called him a dictator if he let states decide then they want to say he failed to act. Governors and mayors like John Cooper will own the “L”

It’s very simple.
What do we do now when schools get mass infections with the flu, which of course is way more deadly to all age groups

Just my 2 cents.
When kids start testing positive. I think schools should shut down for a couple days and go through a deep cleaning. Let's say 10% of the population tests positive.When schools open back up test everyone. All negatives go to school all positives do virtual learning until they test negative then they may return.

That doesn't square with keeping the more at-risk people separated.

Seems like it's bound to happen. Hopefully there are plans to contain it, if/when it happens.

He left a lot of the decision making up to state and local leaders. Trump gets 50% of the blame, but others share it with him as well.

We don't have the testing to accomplish that. My kids are already in school anyways
