More Model Manipulatation and Scare Mongering

link

An influential coronavirus model often cited by the White House offers a glimpse into when states would be able to safely open businesses amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

New data from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington suggests many states may need to wait more than a month before businesses can return to normal operations without a significant negative impact on the number of cases.

The model shows 12 states should wait until June 8 or later before considering relaxing social distancing guidelines, assuming states will have other measures in place. Those measures include aggressive testing, contact tracing and isolation of those infected. Georgia, which is planning to relax social distancing guidelines starting Friday, is one of the 12 states.

All the states with governors talking about loosening restrictions magically have their models adjusted in severity overnight. The least dense states in the nation suddenly need more heavy mitigation longer than the most dense? Iowa now needs longer mitigation efforts than Illinois? How does this manipulation of data make anysense to anyone? Can the scaremongering be more blatant?

Anyone who hasn't realized what's going on at this point, either doesn't want to, or has stock in it.

Yes , Lot 6 is Working Well ...

Seriously. "Nice state you've got there. Be a shame if a pandemic panic happened to it. Don't open up before I say-- or I'll scare your citizens, politicize it, and make things harder on you before I finally DO give consent to open"

This looks like a ‘pad on the back’ study for which states conformed to economic destruction the fastest.

AZ is one of the least ‘infected’ states. Yet they have us fu##ed for another 45 days.

BULLSH!!!!T

They are the ones that need to learn themselves a lesson.

At this point, I think they should just get to the point and start offering ultimatums in exchange for "getting your life back".

You'd best get in step... Goose step.

LOL at that map.

SoOo... Montana is doing pretty good... we should open up as soon as possible!!!

North Dakota is screwed, however... they should remain closed for a long time.

Did whoever made that map not realize that there are thousands and thousands of people that live in Montana and work in North Dakota?

I mean, it's not like we could carry the virus over the border or anything...

/facepalm

The only map that ever mattered in all this, that's assuming it was being approached and enforced in a logical manner.

I always read that as just the American Density Map.

The more people that collect in one place, the denser they are.

I'm not talking about population.

Well, North Dakota has had 14 deaths, so you wouldn't want to go to that "warzone" anyway...

Once it hits 20, I think they should firebomb the whole state, you know, kill everyone to save their lives.

It's the rational thing to do.

Maybe they just put the wrong colour key on th is latest map... Inverted it...

ND has had more work related fatalities this year than the virus has caused.

On a positive note, there will be a LOT less work related deaths now that the oil industry shut down and everyone went home...

Oh wait.

We can put the unemployed to work welding people into their homes. "Learn to weld!"

Don't worry. A producer at CBS is warming up the Italy hospital footage for the Bismark hospital stories. Maybe they'll reel up some Deadliest Catch footage to cover workplace injuries and fatalities.

I second that from AZ!!!

Everyone I speak to is fine, and wonder/believe the colds and coughs that swept thru the beginning of the year were actually our CoV "pandemic." My husband's shop was working with half their crew for a couple weeks because so many were out sick -- including him for a couple days.

And last I knew, most of the deaths were also attributed to elders in nursing homes.

And quite honestly, we tend to be lousy social distancers!
