Ohio has been putting out some crazy shite from day one. Hell, their governor said they already had 100,000 people walking around with the disease back when they had like three confirmed cases in the whole state.

So at 2 pm each day, we have Wine with DeWine. Today, Acton says the peak will occur late April to mid-May, and the number of new cases per day will be 10,000, with mitigation. Yesterday, she said 6000-8000. It would have been 50000 without mitigation. Those numbers are from Cleveland Clinic and OSU modelers, with no names. Just organizations. If President Trump is successful in relaxing the shutdown on Easter, will it have an affect at the local and state level?

What does the board think of this? DeWine is a never Trumper, Acton is an Obama fundraiser.

I think CC and OSU borrowed climate change modelers to do Chinese Wuhan virus modeling.

By the way, two weeks ago she said Ohio will have multiple Wuhans. Millions will die. Children will die. At a news conference on 3/15 at 3 pm.

Even with mitigation she predicts 40-70% of Ohioans will be infected, that’s 4.5-7.8 million Ohioans. She’s inciting a public panic.

The experts are wholly relying on terrible data and it’s showing. They are testing the sickest people they can find, and less than 14% of those people are actually testing for positive the virus. It’s almost April ffs. The first case was in mid January. The experts said the hospital system was supposed to break two weeks ago. The US Surgeon General predicted that this past week was going to be “bad”, yet the country is below 1,800 deaths.

She’s extrapolating based on skewed data because A. We didn’t start testing immediately, therefore many of the tests that are coming back positive aren’t “new” cases, and B. Many of these cases were infected before social distancing measures that closed most business with person to person contact.

ETA: also they are only testing people who are showing symptoms, so of course you’re going to get a high positive rate. That can’t possible think the positive rate for the testing is a usable sample size to extrapolate to an entire population.

No they won't! Hell the feds could show up to take their firearms and over half the people would already have them neatly stacked outside for them before they arrived and have cupcakes already made to serve the feds as they are loading the guns.... Bunch of damn pussies!

Children are carriers that can kill the elderly. From now on, I think it’s time to limit each family in America to only one child. If it can save lives, we are OBLIGATED to do it!

Nytimes article early March said models showed between 200,000 and 1.7mm deaths in the us.

And we're currently at 1700....

Most estimates were usually 12 month totals.
