if we didn't have that shithole that is NOLA, we'd be looking so much better.

I would imagine 80-90% of those people will pass in the next few days to a week.
I think that statistic is high.

I’m gonna go ahead and say that death rate isn’t too accurate considering the tests have been pretty restricted to only people that have a fever and show like all of the symptoms. Actual denominator is very likely way higher since we don’t really have an accurate number on people that had it with minor/no real symptoms...
More gymnastics to fit the numbers so it doesn’t seem as bad.

Steady increase in hospitalizations and decrease in ventilation is great news. Could this be expanded use of the Trump Cure?

Didn't see it commented on yet but the new numbers list 507 patients on ventilator. I would imagine 80-90% of those people will pass in the next few days to a week.
I think that is a little high. I think it's more like 40%-60% based on what I've read, but I don't have a link to back that up at the moment.

That's probably a little high. I'd be 60% is more accurate.

Everybody is going to freak out about the positive cases, but a minimal increase in hospitalization and vent numbers is a positive sign.
If the tests have been backlogged, many who ended up in a hospital or a vent from these positives were probably already hospitalized or on a vent before their positive tests were released today.

10-14 days is what time "typical" is for vent patients from others in this thread who are in hospitals.

I’m glad we have another daily thread for people to go back and forth for ten pages about what the numbers REALLY mean.
Thanks for the quick info update, OP.

Haven't read through yet, but not as apocalyptic as it appears
The last 4 days... 23,215 new tests completed and 5,610 new positives
So 45% of total tests were done in the last 4 days and 65% of new cases
Basically, if you test everyone, your number will skyrocket, but then from there it should curve off if those positives stay quarantined
Still 10 days or so from a potential level off

Hopefully.

It is the 2nd largest death total of any day so far.
It is statistically almost a flatline for the last five days plus more evidence that the 54 n Monday was an anomaly. I won't read too much into it, but it is good news.

I think the larger point is that we are not seeing that exponential growth that everyone lectured us on last week

According to LDH site, Looks like LA has 1,845 total ventilators. 973 (53%) are currently in use.
