pamela 1,334 Report post Posted March 21, 2020 Yah, or the mRNA therapeutic from Moderna, even though it’ll take time (rightfully so) to clear trials even on fast track. The big concern isn’t just the exponential shape of the curve; there’s predictive modeling that forecasts a pattern of flattening and recovery in the late summer or early fall, then bam, a second wave of c19 that hits the population even harder - kind of like the 1918 epidemic. It’s a race to get a working vaccination not just working, but in production and distributed at scale. Bringing this back topically, hopefully c19 will be fully under control by next season. Even if it is, though, I think there will be lingering public fear over congregating en masse. We all feel like unquarantining and going out now but I think it will take some time to build back to pre-pandemic levels. I imagine the NCAA and conferences will likely have new safety procedures that might change the way wrestling duals & tournaments are conducted and how attendees watch.

Lurker 1,397 Report post Posted March 22, 2020 In the name of Exponentially: From January 21 to February 10 (20 days) the virus claimed its first 1000 victims. In the next 20 days, the number of deaths tripled, bringing us to just over 3000 dead. We are now 21 days out from that point, and we have 14,500 dead. Just sharing information.

Do you see the virus becoming less aggressive? I live in a town if 21, 000 and there has yet to have confirmed case. Any reason to not have church or restaurants open?

I wouldn’t say I understand the virus, I’m just following the numbers. I’m not in a position to answer your questions, but I would reccomend considering: the numbers are rising exponentially; people have the ability to walk around infectious for several, several days without feeling anything; the reccomendations from those who do understand the virus, and it’s potential.

Just to reframe your last question: How many ICU beds does your local hospital have? Many county hospitals have 2 or fewer. If say 5% of your town (~1000 people) get sick in a 2-4 week period, will they be able to get medical care? Regarding your first Q, Fauci said today that the virus is “definitely mutating”, which is normal behavior for a virus that is replicating at scale, but that also could make the development and testing of treatments that much tougher - including vaccines that are currently in trials.

NYC appears to have the worse problem in the country and will be requiring resources from other areas that may need them. But sure why would the mayor want to do anything "soon," maybe if he waits the problem will just go away? The governor does appear to be taking this seriously.

pamela 1,334 Report post Posted March 23, 2020 This online tool pairs well with @Lurker’s numbers updates. It lets you click on a state then predictively models the point of no return moment for different actions (e.g., social distancing, shelter in place, doing nothing) before the c19 case curve moves past the point of hospital overload.

I’m in Florida (Southwest) and according to that model we are currently a couple days from “point of no return”, and that we will need three months of shelter in place to remain below hospital capacity. Based on what was going on at the beaches last week, I’m not at all surprised. I was anticipating a real problem start to show itself...well any time now. We shall see.

red blades 246 Report post Posted March 23, 2020 Some of you may recognize this - my daughter home from college sees me somewhat obsessively checking up on the latest COVID 19 stats, comparing charts and graphs, and asks, "Is this what guys do now that there are no sports or sports stats to analyze?" I have to admit in my own case - it does seem she has a point. 1 nom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
