I showed you a .gov website that updates every day, and breaks down the numbers by age, race, zip codes, full State data, etc. I also showed you what google has in regards to the data. You posted a few twitter comments. Who exactly sounds like the idiot here?
You can see the raw data here by day and by county https://txdshs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/ed483ecd702b4298ab01e8b9cafc8b83 Looks like a timing issue as worldmeters, county all say 23,000 cumulative cases...EDIT: The spreadsheet here says 21,000 cases This is what it says for Harris County the last 4 days (including today) 395 1187 1135 179 (today)
That's not today numbers that's yesterday (Sunday). The cases often aren't reported on Sunday to due things being closed, that's why today's announcement from mayor Turner was for both today and yesterday. In a corner with that idiot? No problem. (Edit I'll go with this one )
I gotta admit, I love when people think that. You posted **** from a mayor known for corruption. I showed you the numbers. You refuse to see them. I'd continue, but I don't think much of you in the first place.
Yeah must be as the county link does say 23k cases..the spreadsheet must be a day behind..so that would mean almost 2k cases
His reasoning is either (1) he wants to promote his own narrative or (2) he didn't do any research and doesn't actually know what he's looking at. The site he used literally has a tab that says "disclaimer" with the following: All data are provisional and subject to change and will be updated at 4:00 PM each day. It should be noted that the Case Count depicted here is based on epidemiological hierarchy approach as follows: Date of disease onset Date of diagnosis Date of Laboratory result Date of first report to public (i.e., community) health system Data for the Onset of Symptoms is based on the date of disease onset as reported by the individual. This date may fall before the date of diagnosis. Basically, his site dates cases based on the onset of the disease, whereas others report based on when things are diagnosed or tested. So his site is going to have lagging numbers, and as people are diagnosed next week and say they first had symptoms around now, those numbers will be added back into the graph on previous days. In other words, the most recent data is incomplete.
Thanks, I suspected some sort of reasoning behind the major differences in numbers, that is an interesting chart but clearly not one that should be cited for current increases in reported cases.
Everything is estimate... so throwing out some #. 70% of population infected to achieve herd immunity. That would be ~231M. If we assume 0.1% IFR -> that's 231k death. 693k if 0.3%. 2M if 1%. At this time, we really don't have a good idea on IFR. This assumes immunity after infection (we do not know how much someone is immune and for how long). Unfortunately, we aren't a very healthy nation. I wouldn't be surprise if half of American has cardiovascular disease, diabetes or obesity. This drives up IFR for the US relative to said Sweden.
Over 40% of the adults in this country are obese (70% overweight), and if you add (nonoverlapping) diabetes, COPD/asthma, cancers, you name it, it's highly likely well over half of the adults in this country classify at a higher risk for mortality.
Check out that KFF link it tries to break it down. If you scroll down its about 3/4ths of the way down the page. They put it at about 38% of the population above 18 as higher risk for serious illness. 21% of 18-65 and 55% of 65+.
https://dshs.texas.gov/coronavirus/additionaldata/ Active cases have gone from 7065 on June 1 to 12404 as of today June 22. Hospitalizations in the Houston area have increased about 146% since June 1 from 482 to 1185. They are currently doubling about every 15 days.
This is eye opening, I liked, but where are cancer, HIV, Diabetes and heart disease to be fair? And are that many dying people drowning and being murdered. geez. Malaria, still a biotch. The fact that it is blowing away drugs and alcohol and the flue though is a big deal.
what's the news on a vaccine? when these scientists getting it done? we need it yesterday ago so hollywood can start making a movie out of this.
Whats your point here? Without getting into which numbers are correct, are you saying this isn’t a real thing or it isn’t an actual problem?
