Narrative Fail: 15 Days After Lockdown Ease, Georgia Sees Lowest Day Of COVID Hospitalizations

The funny thing about these boards is that you know very little about the posters.

On another board I frequent there was an ultra right wing Trumper who was claiming that he had a flu and that his wife made him go for a test. When he couldn't pay cash he refused the test and went home. He was sick. It was obvious from some of the incoherent posts he was making (more incoherent than usual)...and now he has gone silent.

I have to think he had the virus. I also have to think he passed it on to any number of people. I wonder if he's even still alive
 
It's amazing the number of people I know who have had the virus, and lost loved ones to the virus, but not the people on this board. What a hardy bunch you all are.
No one in my circle or their satellites has been affected by Covid-19 at all beyond economic and supply things.
 
Here's another nail in the shutdown coffin. I predict this shutdown will last only a few more weeks.

In late April Dr. Tony Fauci made it clear he opposed the decision by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to lift the lockdown orders in his state. “If I were advising the governor, I would tell him he should be careful. Going ahead and leapfrogging into phases where you should not be … I would advise him not to do that.”​
But Dr. Fauci was wrong again. In fact, it starting to look like this guy is NEVER right about anything? It must be nice having a government job and not have to worry about getting fired!​
Fauci and the critics were all wrong. Today Georgia Governor Brian Kemp announced on Saturday the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th and the lowest total of ventilators in use.​
Today marks the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th.​
Today also marks the lowest total of ventilators in use (897 with 1,945 available).​
Dr. Fauci is not wrong. Georgia just opened so give it a chance. South Korea had been closed and had very good results. Now they have opened and the virus has spiked.
Which is going to happen no matter how long you keep people locked inside.

The virus is not going away so whenever people start going out again there will be new cases.

Over all numbers will go hgher as more and more testing is done. The real metric of this disease are the numbers of new hosptializations and those have not climbed. So the majority of those being affected are those that have little or no symptoms when they get this disease.
Health professions in Ga are already building temporary hospitals to handle the surge they are expecting
LOL

They began expanding their capacity months ago. They understand that it will spike the cases to a certain level but as the population becomes immune to it the rate of infections will drop and the needs will also drop. Absent a vaccine there is only one way to beat a pathogen, its called herd immunity. Staying at home prolongs this process but you will still become infected. Its time to stop hiding from this virus and beat it. With 98% of the populace not having a problem with getting this virus and becoming immune we can protect those who are most at risk and still get on with life.
Not one shred of evidence exists proving herd immunity is a viable concept for this kind of virus.
:auiqs.jpg: :auiqs.jpg: :auiqs.jpg:

Tell that to all epidemiologists doctors world wide and the science. Its well established science.
 
Rushing headlong into herd immunity with a virus that has a mortality rate of 1% would result in MILLIONS of deaths

Herd immunity is reached at about 70%. 1% of 70% of the population is....2.6 MILLION people. You ready for that?

You think the economy could sustain that?

You have been brainwashed. No evidence exist proving people can achieve herd immunity to COVID-19 for a sustainable period. The common cold is caused by a coronavirus. Why do we still all get common colds? Coronaviruses quickly mutate. What you become immune to simply comes back next week or month in a different variation.

Do you Trump supporters realize that he does NOT know anything about medicine or science? Nada, niet, zappo
and yet he keeps dissing those who do know? Did you ever ask yourself why? He doesn't care about people since he is totally lacking in empathy, so it has to be political.

We can't wait a year for a vaccine, moron, and you turds will never be satisfied with the amount of testing.

Trump knows plenty about medicine and science - more than you, obviously.

What doctor or scientists has he dissed?

No it won't

Has influenza "dissipated"?

And FYI I didn't vote for Trump and am not much of a fan.

So don't go assigning political reasons for what I say when you have no fucking clue what my political leanings are.

The virus is in the environment and it will stay there just like the influenza virus, Rabies, Ebola and the countless others that exist.

The fact that most new cases in NY are among people who were staying home should tell you something.

Herd immunity, on the other hand, is a well established concept supported by centuries of empirical data.
You are 100% wrong and the exact opposite of your claims are fact. Empirical data accurately proves shutdowns and lockdowns work and if herd immunity for Corona viruses worked no one would ever get common colds, which are caused by a coronavirus. The reason is known to science. Some viruses, Coronaviruses included, are able to change and adapt.

"Empirical data accurately proves [sic] shutdowns and lockdowns work"? Really? How are you defining "work"? It certainly can't be that they prevent the virus from spreading, since we haven't stopped getting new cases every day the entire time the lockdowns have been in effect. So what is the definition of "work" that you're claiming has been achieved here?

The only reason this is happening is because businesses aren't really re-opening and customers aren't "getting back to normal". In the absence of public policy on how to safely proceed, people are staying home.


My son's company never closed, but they got advice on how to keep their workers safe, and they gave staff a choice about working. Those who chose to stay home were given immediately paperwork to collect unemployment insurance and laid off. Those who chose to work wear face masks, have their own personal equipment, which is deep cleaned daily, and social distancing is rigidly enforced. My son said they're real Nazis about it. In a company of 3200 employees, they haven't had a single case of covid. They have converted their electronics manufacturing from amplifiers and speakers, to making motherboards for ventilators. They have closed their stores and gone to curbside pickup or online sales. They are currently at 70% of pre-covid sales.

Covid is not going away, and companies have a choice - evolve or die. What they cannot do and survive, is to endanger the lives of their workers. The union movement in the USA grew out of the callous disregard for workers safety during the industrial revolution. When hundreds of workers started dying in factory fires, Americans revolted and demanded safe working conditions.

Trump is trying to force workers back to work while a pandemic rages, while doing NOTHING to protect those workers, and worse, REMOVING THE WORKER'S RIGHT TO REFUSE UNSAFE WORKING CONDITIONS, AND THE RIGHT TO SUE THEIR EMPLOYERS SHOULD THEY GET SICK AS A RESULT.

Protect the employers at the cost of lives. No protections for workers. This is BULLSHIT.
ROFL! Companies aren't responsible if you catch the flu, so why should they be responsible if you catch COVID? YouTDS morons are using COVID as an excuse to implement your entire agenda.

People under 70 have little chance of dying from COVID. Most don't even know they have it. Older people can isolate themselves. There is simply no rational justification for keeping people from going to work.

This isnt the flu, you stupid dolt. This is a highly contagious form of viral pneumonia that attacks the heart, lungs and kidneys, as well as triggering strokes, in younger people, and rare reaction in children that is killing them as well. There is no cure, and currently, more than 25% of those who have tested positive in the USA, are dying.


While the virus isn't killing young people in healthier countries, the USA has the least healthy general population in the first world, as well as the highest rates of obesity, diabetes, asthma, and heart disease - all of which make your general population far more likely to both catch the virus and to die from it.

Couple that with a large uninsured population of low income workers with no savings, and no resources, and this is the end of the US economy as you know it.

What is about the happen is the death throes of a sick society, which values money more than people.

Those of us who put our people first, aren't trying to sell the idea that workers are "warriors" who should go to work without protection. In our country, companies are being given clear guidelines on how to keep workers safe. If people are getting sick at work, they shouldn't be going to work until employers can keep them safe.

If you can't keep your workers safe, how can you keep your customers safe? And if you can't keep customers and workers safe, you certainly can't keep vulnerable populations safe because either workers in care facilities, or family members who work are going to bring the virus to them. So start with making the workplaces safe so workers don't get sick.

If you're forced to go back to work, and your company isn't offering face masks, private equipment, barriers and social distancing to protect staff, and you get sick - damn skippy you should be able to sue their asses. If your boss has the right to force you back to work, he'd better make damn sure it's safe for you to be there.

Time and time again, we see the same factories which were the subject of ICE raids a few months ago, are now being closed for Covid Clusters today. If these people were so cavalier about flouting immigration laws which exist for the safety and security of the nation, what makes you think they're now follow health and safety laws, when doing so will cost them money and reduce production?

The difference is that now their workers really do threaten Americans. If these workers get sick, they won't have the money to seek treatment, and they will spread these viruses to the rest of the community, just by shopping, going to restaurants, and playing in public parks.
You moron you're actually taking all the smoke being pumped up your ass seriously. I have no doubt that back when that quack cure was actually popular you'd be right there bending over and spreading your cheeks to receive the tobacco smoke. Now let's hear your best mooooooo or are you a bleater? If so your best baaaaah will suffice.
 
Donald Trump is carrying the country on his back more than Anthony Davis does to the Lakers! He’s made a revolutionary state-of-the-art vaccine made entirely out of bleach!! Why hasn’t that been covered? He’s also made the US the number 1 country in coronavirus cases and deaths. Number 1 country in everything! Trump 2020!

Really? How does it prove that?

You're understanding is obviously wrong because herd immunity requires that a certain people contract the virus. I don't know how colds work, but we have flu every year or two because a new strain comes out every year or two. I believe the as me thing happens with colds, but they are much less serious so no one panics about it.
We fight yearly flu with vaccines. You are comfortable with giving all this life or death advice and opinions on COVID-19 and pandemics yet freely admit you know nothing abour the common cold. You even think the flu comes "every year or two"(your words).
People like you or anyone else with little medical knowledge should shut up and stop fantasizing about being scholarly and of high ranging intelligence. You are giving dangerous and poor advice and opinions. Think about it, you are advising on Coronavirus and admitting you know nothing about the common cold.

We fight yearly flu not very well, just FYI. Flu vaccines are far from 100% effective, even when the medical experts guess right about which strain of the flu will be dominant that season. In the years where they guess wrong, flu vaccines are as effective as just shooting people with distilled water.

You are comfortable talking about the wonders of lockdowns and how they "work" without telling us what "lockdowns working" actually means, and without telling us what purpose they actually serve if no vaccine is possible. You are sitting back and criticizing and complaining about how everyone else's plans and suggestions are impossible and dangerous, without offering anything solid yourself.

They understand that it will spike the cases to a certain level but as the population becomes immune to it the rate of infections will drop and the needs will also drop. Absent a vaccine there is only one way to beat a pathogen, its called herd immunity. Staying at home prolongs this process but you will still become infected. Its time to stop hiding from this virus and beat it. With 98% of the populace not having a problem with getting this virus and becoming immune we can protect those who are most at risk and still get on with life.
Not one shred of evidence exists proving herd immunity is a viable concept for this kind of virus.
Not one shred of evidence exists proving the shutdown is a viable concept for this kind of virus.

Herd immunity, on the other hand, is a well established concept supported by centuries of empirical data.
You are 100% wrong and the exact opposite of your claims are fact. Empirical data accurately proves shutdowns and lockdowns work and if herd immunity for Corona viruses worked no one would ever get common colds, which are caused by a coronavirus. The reason is known to science. Some viruses, Coronaviruses included, are able to change and adapt.

"Empirical data accurately proves [sic] shutdowns and lockdowns work"? Really? How are you defining "work"? It certainly can't be that they prevent the virus from spreading, since we haven't stopped getting new cases every day the entire time the lockdowns have been in effect. So what is the definition of "work" that you're claiming has been achieved here?
Where is this empirical data coming from since no one has ever shutdown an entire country before?
 
Here's another nail in the shutdown coffin. I predict this shutdown will last only a few more weeks.

In late April Dr. Tony Fauci made it clear he opposed the decision by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to lift the lockdown orders in his state. “If I were advising the governor, I would tell him he should be careful. Going ahead and leapfrogging into phases where you should not be … I would advise him not to do that.”​
But Dr. Fauci was wrong again. In fact, it starting to look like this guy is NEVER right about anything? It must be nice having a government job and not have to worry about getting fired!​
Fauci and the critics were all wrong. Today Georgia Governor Brian Kemp announced on Saturday the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th and the lowest total of ventilators in use.​
Today marks the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th.​
Today also marks the lowest total of ventilators in use (897 with 1,945 available).​

Wrong. Fauci is right.

Number of new cases on May 9th: 419
Number of new cases on May 10th: 886

Yeah, except that the effects of reopening wouldn't show up that fast, given the virus incubation rates.

Stay home as long as you want.

Over all numbers will go hgher as more and more testing is done. The real metric of this disease are the numbers of new hosptializations and those have not climbed. So the majority of those being affected are those that have little or no symptoms when they get this disease.

So Fauci is wrong saying the number of cases will go up and then you admit the number of cases will go up?

Am I understanding this right?

You can have your own factors on whether you think things are getting worse but that doesn't make Fauci wrong.
This is a virus! it will infect everyone at some point. The metrics of what its doing to our cities and medical systems is in the number of people requiring them, most do not. Fauci is wrong on what the most important metric is.
Well Billy why don’t you show us where Fauci is wrong? Or show us what metric you use???
