Shutdowns prevented 60 million coronavirus infections in the U.S., study finds https://www.washingtonpost.com/heal...illion-coronavirus-infections-us-study-finds/ Link to UC Berkeley study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2404-8_reference.pdf Link to Imperial College London study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2405-7
I cannot believe my eyes. NewRoxFan has just proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that he’s not paying attention. He just linked to a NEW model from Imperial College in London. They are the laughingstock that built the model claiming 2.2 million in the US would die from covid, back in March. please venture out of your echo chamber, NRF!
bigtexxxx is still struggling to find any relevance? Care to share any published studies that support your belief that the pandemic numbers would not have been reduced by shutdowns? And while you are doing your research... can you link the original Imperial College study and highlight in their predictions the section on mitigation factors. That might help your argument that the U.S. shouldn't have made attempts to mitigate the COVID-19. I'll wait...
Interesting: so it's just returned to the same slope the outbreak had before mitigation. So many Texans in my family are telling me that the "heat is really ending this outbreak."
Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see... COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations spiking in Houston Houston Chronicle The upturn, which began two weeks ago and accelerated this week, comes a month after Gov. Greg Abbott began allowing businesses to reopen and a week and a half after the Memorial Day weekend, both of which health officials think led people to let their guard down and come into closer contact with others. The hike followed a roughly month-long plateau the area had settled into. Denton, Collin Counties Add a Combined 36 Cases of COVID-19 KXAS-TV - Dallas/Fort Worth Denton County Public Health reported 19 new cases, raising the countywide total to 1,486. Two of the new cases were reported at the Denton State Supported Living Center, which has seen eight additional COVID-19 cases since May 30, after holding its count to 55 for more than two weeks. Texas DSHS, which has taken over reporting Collin County data, reported 17 new cases in the county, bringing the total to 1,447. Dallas County Reports Another Record Number of COVID-19 Cases Friday, 10 More Deaths KXAS-TV - Dallas/Fort Worth Dallas County is reporting another record number of new COVID-19 cases Friday, nearly 300, along with 10 more deaths of people whose ages range from their 20s to their 100s. All but one of the 10 deaths reported Friday had underlying health conditions and half of them lived in long-term care facilities. The 298 new cases announced Friday top the 285 announced Thursday, which were until Friday the highest single-day total in the county yet.
Rashmon - remember testing is increasing, so most of your links simply aren't insightful. Also - please take note of the broader US trends, not cherry-picked, anecdotal information, which is always the worst form of evidence. The US deaths are dropping like a rock.
The spike in hospitalization is worrying as that has nothing to do with testing increasing. It's just more people being sick to the point of needing hospitalization. Quite the coincidence that it started ~2 weeks after the re-opening!
possibly a bit, but this too will correlate with reopening, as people are more comfortable going to a hospital as society reopens. Also if there’s plenty of hospital capacity, it’s not as big of an issue. The death rate is the one I watch, and it’s dropping fast in the US. Similar to how it’s dropped over the same time period in other countries.
Protests started under 2 weeks ago. If you know anything about the disease, you'd know that the protests aren't what's causing this spike. This comment, illustrates your full on stupidity.
