Tuesday’s number will say a lot... numbers on Monday are typically low.

If these vent numbers are accurate, this is an insane drop in Region 1 (New Orleans).
ETA: Corrected the numbers

Fatality rate 3.44%
So this rate seems to be nothing more than a running tab that isn't really close to whatever the actual chance is of dying from the virus, especially if the denominator includes everyone with a recent diagnosis, i.e., without knowing their outcome. It also seems that it would be even more affected if undiagnosed people were counted, i.e., its probably significantly lower. Is there a specific methodology for determining a death rate that would be expected to provide a more a accurate picture of the odds of dying from the virus at this point? Or do we just have to wait until widespread testing for antibodies to figure out how many people actually recovered?

"Fear-mongering" led to proactive social distancing measures. Said measures led to these lower numbers. The numbers are great but we wouldn't be looking at the same low numbers had Bourbon Street, etc. remained open. And, yes, the economy will recover.

How long should we keep it up to keep numbers low?

It's a completely useless number at this point. The true percentage of people who die of this is way lower than 3%.

there's an old saying... "you can't ventilate the dead"
Posted on 4/6/20 at 12:12 pm to TigersSEC2010
The 4/6 numbers don’t seem right if you try and add them up (doesn’t make sense for both ventilator use and available to both go way down).

The "Available" number is wrong.
Hell, that whole column looks dickered.

Edwards has already kept the guideline in place until the end of this month. Personally, I would evaluate the numbers in a week and potentially start easing some restrictions. As long as people can do common sense stuff like wash their hands.

New Orleans well over the peak. BR probably peaking this week.

BS. I am as serious about this virus as anyone, but you are obviously trolling.
Monday has been the big jump day traditionally, due to labs not being fully staffed on the weekends and data dumping on Monday morning.
