Cases and deaths down. Hospitals and vents up. Real low reporting day. Expect data dump Monday.

Does the CDC have guidance in terms of % positive as whether to go to and from phases?

Or maybe Tuesday. Either way it’s coming.

Don't know them all, but 10% was the recommendation to enter Phase 2.

Without claiming one "side" or the other, people who constantly say "cases are down!" without looking at the % positive are real idiots

Most important indicator - hospitalizations - is spiking

I was joking dipshit. I know it’s all about total number of tests reported.
Posted on 7/12/20 at 1:06 pm to LSUGUMBO
Cases drop by 40%. Phase 3 we coming.

Testing is a complete mess. I have zero faith in this data- at the State and National level!
Like in Texas, LA is counting the # of positives and not the # of individual’s testing positive .

Does anyone know the criteria for hospitalizations? Does it follow the same criteria for COVID deaths?
Meaning, are they counting someone with asymptotic COVID that goes to the hospital with a broken arm?

Yes, but it is being ignored.
CDC recommended 5% or less positive with declining cases to move to next phase.

That is such an arbitrary criteria. It depends entirely upon what criteria folks use to recommend a test, and what motivation people have for seeking a test. If we were conducting random screenings of people this may have value but not under the current situation.

Hospitalizations are not increasing due to a sudden spike in broken arms. They are increasing because the virus is spreading uncontrollably. Downvote all you want. The deniers are just
