We have seen a slowdown in the daily rate of increase the past couple days

Probably not far enough along in the government mandated shut downs for them to make a difference in deaths right now

I think we are far enough along in the public health changes to see a major

Maybe. Washington shut down schools on March 12. They were the first state to do so right? Most everything I’ve read

YIsForBrigham

3/26/20 11:10pm

But lots of people were practicing social distancing before March 12.

Exactly. That’s why I said this:

Not in Washington. Or in the Bay Area. They were social distancing well before March 12. And they’ve also seen very

Even if we are, we’re testing more and more every day, which means we’ll have more positive cases

It’s hard to know in real time. We actually had two days with lower

Let's be honest, you wouldn't change your view regardless of the trend.

Hopefully this little plateau continues for a couple of days. It may flare up again if other cities see an outbreak

YIsForBrigham

Not sure what data is key, but death rates are steady at 10-14% increases

Joe Banks

3/26/20 11:00pm

I think he means literally the last two days have seen flattening in growth of deaths per day. Which is true.

YIsForBrigham

3/26/20 11:03pm

I don’t see those numbers as a possibility. Maybe I’m wrong and

I don’t think that with strict public health measures that it gets that bad.

85873 total cases from the 100s in just two weeks. 16650 new cases yesterday alone, 1299 deaths.. and you think

Denominator. It’s important

You’re assuming there were just 100s two weeks ago. There were 100s that were tested and confirmed but undoubtedly

Holy math....

Well, looks like somewhere between May 21 and May 28 we’re all dead.

Very quickly we’re at 5 million dead per day, then the next week 25 million per day, then we’re really toast once

I hope it’s before the 27th. I’m on call that day and don’t wanna work.

To be consistent, there were 282,000 jobless claims last week and 3 million this week. So we will undoubtedly see 30MM

Wow, in a couple weeks, this thing could be killing more people than AR-14s.

It’s beyond absurd to think that we’ll have 6k+ dying every day

Mike Honcho

3/26/20 11:21pm

Absurd? Meet Italy. Even with weeks of strict public health measures

UpperCirqueUte

3/26/20 11:31pm

They leveled off only 9 days from their quarantine

CSoul

What is the median time to death on the vent? The 25th quartile?

UpperCirqueUte

3/26/20 11:38pm

Median is 13 days from symptom onset. Time to symptoms from infection

Looking at the paper in the Lancet and CDC report

Your extrapolations are so simplistic that it’s hard to take you seriously

Their growth in deaths per day has actually fallen since their peak on 3/21. They instituted mandatory quarantine

Even though not true peak, the 20th was within the margin of peak

Just think in 8 weeks it will be like millions dying everyday!

And soon after that we’ll hit billions dying every day.

How are there 10 thumbs up on this? The curve is not exponential into infinity.

Because people on here just pick a side and anyone that agrees with that side

True, as long as governments have shut down everything, the curve goes down

No. It isn't. You have literally zero data that says that's true.

No country has slowed an exponential death rate without shutting down
