@Commander, I just got caught up on all of your posts. Thank you for sharing, and thank goodness you went to the hospital. We are praying for you. You will beat this. It’ll be a climb, but you’re in good hands now. Please update often.

Can you provide any statistical data to previous bad flu waves for comparison analysis?

So how many people here are positive for COVID so far? We've got Data in serious condition out of just a handful of posters. In GA, we have over 28% of confirmed cases hospitalized and 62 deaths. If 1 in 4 is getting hospitalized with this, I don't feel like that bodes well. Also, really makes me wonder how many cases are actually out there that have truly mild or non-existent symptoms. What I'm seeing, in practice, doesn't really support that.

Ohio governor just announced updated modeling from the Cleveland Clinic modeling group that shows the peak in Ohio happening sometime in mid-May. With that said, I can't see any of these restrictions being relaxed until then. Also said they are planning it will exceed the current hospital capacity by 3X and they are ramping up extra capacity using the National Guard.
Honestly, as much I'd prefer this to be over now, mid-May doesn't seem terrible. With some of the relief coming in this stimulus bill, we should be able to keep meeting payroll, even if we have to shut to the doors for a bit.

I can help with the gaming computer issues. VGA isn’t really a thing anymore. If it was recently purchased it can work.

What are your thoughts on letting bomb threats play out before taking serious action to prevent them? Should we wait a few weeks on hostage situations too?

He’s also saying we will be getting 10,000 cases a day at that point. I’m sure the computer models are way more sophisticated than my brain, but man, if that’s the case I feel like a significant chunk the population is just being absolutely careless about protecting themselves.
Everyone I know is staying in their houses during the week and only leaving once or twice during the weekend to get takeout and help support local places. 10,000 a day in Ohio just seems crazy given how far Dewine has been ahead of others, along with the awful testing standards.

How many bomb threats have been prevented due to "serious action taken"?
Usually bomb threats are extremely effective because "serious action" is always taken despite the fact they always turn out to be a hoax.

Get some of this. Seriously.
When I had an upper bronchial infection and pneumonia, it helped.

Wasn’t he the moron that claimed 80% of his state would have it?

About 5 percent are not. How would you feel if your SO was in a building with a bomb threat that was real and LE said only 5 percent of them are legit so let's just dick around and not take it seriously.

Has a bomb threat ever been legit?

So you guys are saying to never take bomb/shooting threats seriously, because most of the time they're fake?
Bold strategy...

There's a middlenground between do nothing and extreme government overreach, but your strawman is noted.

The Imperial College recommended shutting down schools in the UK and taking responses similar to this with H1N1 and they ended up having something like 500 deaths total.
Are we to shutdown the nation with every disease threat that pops up?
Bomb threats are not equatable to this situation at all.
They are a defined singular event at a defined singular location.
The inconvenience/response lasts a matter of hours at most.
That is a “comparing a truck to an apple” situation.
