COVID-19 (artist formerly known as Wuhan strain novel Corona virus)

Depends. Purely numbers-wise probably not anything phenomenal. But looking at a group of 100 people, ask the 5 people that’d otherwise be in the ground if the this is good news.

 

But then you get into the statistics. If it is statistically significant then great - but without knowing the baseline I don't know if it is a significant result or not. The next time it might be 5 more in the ground with the drug combo if the result isn't significant.

This could be a great result. My point is I don't know.

 

Michigan is going to get really, really nasty before this is over isn't it?

 

Lower-Michigan could.

Much of Michigan is very rural. And, so I think that will slow the spread a lot even if not being diligent about social distancing. But, considering the public health challenges from Flint to Detroit and the fact that it is more dense down there - it could be bad.

 

When you have armed protesters and state Senators wearing armor....



Yeah.

 

I meant fighting, not the actual China Flu spread.

 

Michigan seems like a weird place.

Ton of old establishment money while having a shit ton of working class that has been hit hard from globalization

 

And mix of urbanites and deep rurals, plus two separate land masses. Unique to say the least.

 

Oh. Like actual fighting?

I don’t know. I think a bunch of these guys are the same punks that used to drive around the town I lived in flying their rebel flags. They’re a joke.

 

You’ve also got a big population of blue collar folks that were able to retire with awesome savings and pensions.

Its the generation behind them that were screwed.

 

Hope our leaders are getting this memo.

Oxford scientists who are working on different vaccines:

 

Trump better know that if there is a vaccine available in September that people can't get it til 2021 because we weren't ready to churn it out, then he is toast.

I guarantee you Britain and Germany will be ready.

 

Yes.

 

Turner Correctional in Trousdale has 897 new cases since yesterday.
Trousdale is now #3 behind Davidson and Shelby

 

There's not 897 people in the county outside of that place.

 

No way china created a virus that takes out seniors and prisoners eating up costs to the govt.

 

Prediction that Brazil eventually becomes #1 in average daily deaths.

 

Oxford believes they have the vaccine that will be approved first and million of doses ready as early as September. Signed production deal with AstraZenica. 100 million doses ready by December for UK. India said they can produce 5 million per month and have already started and expect 40 million ready in fall.

 

They are confident. Need to produce it now. We can throw it away if it doesn't work.

 

Those slums in Brazil are going to be [uck fay]ing death pits not seen since the plagues in Europe I fear.
