Staying at home will no doubt have a positive effect. The real question - is dummy going to order everyone back to work and destroy the effect? rns90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading an article last night saying they think it will be peaking here in about 17 days and 1500 plus deaths every day. Hard to estimate that far about, but I think it is very possible the way it is spreading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should have already happened, and needs to happen asap. This thing will be out of control in 2 weeks and he is really going to look bad even suggesting it.

What's going to look bad is when he's dumping on NY while the rest of the country peaks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracking the number of cases is useless in the face of limited testing, because it doesn't represent any sort of true reality. As more people are tested, that number will climb, and is heavily impacted by test availability. As long as testing is limited, it is not a good metric. So that leaves us with the fatality rate. The dead are dead, regardless of how many people are tested. At this point it is the only solid metric that we have. So, how has the death rate in the U.S. been for the past 5 days? Well, it has held steady at around a 25% increase per 24 hour period. If that doesn't sound like a lot, guess again. That is an exponential growth pattern. Not the classic power function 100% growth pattern that they show in the movies, but significant and disturbing nonetheless. (And even worse, in the past 24 hours, the number of fatalities has increased by 32 % as opposed to around 25%). Ignoring the past 24 hour rate of 32%, and assuming a steady 25% increase per day, and starting right now with the current number of dead at 1609, the formula for the death rate is as follows (I had to research how to come up with the formula): So how bad is a 25% increase per day? Well, using the formula above, take a look at these numbers (I rounded off the values for clarity): After 2 weeks: 36K total dead After 1 month: 1.3 million total dead After 2 months: 1 billion total dead Wow. I don't know what to make of this. Number coming out today is so far matching closely with this formula - last I looked, 1997 total dead and counting. Here's a table of the predicted total number of deaths per day to give an idea as to whether it is getting better or worse than the predictions above: This is for the next two weeks, starting from yesterday: I hope it ends up being a lot less than what this shows. It gets way way uglier beyond two weeks. Edited March 28, 2020 by Denali ChemEngr79 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
