re: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) ***W.H.O. DECLARES A GLOBAL PANDEMIC***

You hit the nail on the head with this entire post. I know for a fact, Penn State and Ohio State were ready to go. OSU probably could have gotten some fans in, PSU would have had a tougher time with their governor. The AD had almost zero input and has been in a mode of trying to throw some cover for the president. I think they realize they made a mistake now but will never admit it, hence the talk of November football. It does buy them a little time to see how "back to campus" goes for the school. If it turns into a mess, no way we see Big Ten football which saddens me. I honestly thought the ACC would cave before the Big Ten. I say they play the season without the Michigan teams. I won't miss them.

Those teams knew they didn’t have a chance to win a national championship so they forfeited

The Lancet published something that doesn't support lockdowns...what?
What about "muh testing"? I was told the USA failed at early testing and it was Trump's fault...
But wait...
Ah...that's better, despite it seeming a bit contradictory to the above finding.
It's possible this paper has already been posted in here. It did come out in July.

Rapid border closures, full lockdowns, and wide-spread testing were not associated with COVID-19 mortality per million people.

However, full lockdowns (RR=2.47: 95%CI: 1.08–5.64) and reduced country vulnerability to biological threats (i.e. high scores on the global health security scale for risk environment) (RR=1.55; 95%CI: 1.13–2.12) were significantly associated with increased patient recovery rates.

NEJM paper about Iceland's numbers and whatnot.
IFR estimated to be 0.3%. Also, check out their antibody findings on duration...

Our results indicate that antiviral antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 did not decline within 4 months after diagnosis. We estimate that the risk of death from infection was 0.3% and that 44% of persons infected with SARS-CoV-2 in Iceland were not diagnosed by qPCR.

A paper from an Indiana seroprevalence with IFR estimate.
You guys remember how John Ioannidis was such a villain and had forgotten how toe "science" back in, what?, April or May when that paper came out saying IFR was 0.27?
Crazy!
quote:
The overall noninstitutionalized IFR was 0.26%. In order of magnitude, the demographic-stratified IFR varied most by age, race, ethnicity, and sex. Persons younger than 40 years had an IFR of 0.01%; those aged 60 or older had an IFR of 1.71%.

I would like to tip my hat to some of you guys posting and commenting on some of the research and data that has and is coming out.. it has been very helpful for someone such as myself to come to terms with what is or is not going on with COVID19.
As opposed to the cesspool of information from media outlets..

Right?
They should break this down further. Almost any age band will be arbitrary, but the 70/80/90 year olds are really dragging that number up for the 60 year olds from what I've seen in other reports.
It would be more useful to have a sloped graph by age to show true risk on that metric alone.
Another for age/comorbidity etc.

Not exactly what you're asking for, but I've been seeing graphs like this on Twitter today. This one is for the whole USA. Shows percentage of the population made up by the age range, and the percentage of the deaths made up by that age range.
Striking.

German health minister saying their lockdown was too harsh.
When will our politicians and media begin to realize the mistakes?

interesting new results HAL9000 analyzes Covid from a computer analysis of Covid. Not just any computer, the world's 2nd fastest supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Labs.

Ya it's certainly useful and interesting.
Of course as you're alluding to, since it's doesn't concern total infections, official or estimated, it still leaves some to be desired.

That article is pretty damn frightening. SARS-CoV-2 is no joke.
