Lol. That’s about the normal percentage of vents in use.
If we "open things up" ventilator use will go up. I am not sure at what percentage we begin to have no ventilators available in some critical care units. Maybe 75%? I will try to look up the number.

Could it not also be a result of a larger spread through the population? Since the case numbers are constrained by testing, if the real mortality rate was .1% then that says we have 24.7M cases which is 7.4% of our population; but, we only have 598K confirmed cases so the currently high CFR would connotate a much higher infected number.
Without extensive antibody testing to determine the penetration of the virus into the population, we have no way of knowing what the real CFR is.

Remove the if and the quotes. Anyone who doesn't is an enemy of this nation. I'm dead fricking serious at this point.

So NJ doesn’t do elective surgeries for two more weeks? Who the frick cares about that? What does that have to do with Tennessee or Arizona?

We have close to 20k vents in the national reserve. The vent thing is over. Let it go.

Louisiana death spike ... deaths from 884 yesterday to 1013 today.
That has to be a reporting issue...Louisiana didn't just suddenly spike 3X the deaths from yesterday. Damn weekend (and Easter Sunday) hangover.

Likely yes. I just hope that our governor doesn't misuse/misrepresent these numbers.

He has a presser at 2:30. He will surely use the new numbers in it as well as chastising all Louisianians for moving around too much. I will not be watching.

The same reason he didn’t notice H1N1. Politics.

CD, I don't want to speak for you (your thread, and mostly your work driving it to this point, with some folks helping out here and there), but it is my opinion we should keep the "political" (Yes, I'm aware this is a Poliboard thread and I'm not saying the discussion is for another board) back and forth out of this thread and in other threads.
We've done a good job until very recently. Again, IMO, this thread would be best served as a "Breaking News" thread focused on the numbers and trends, with dozens of other threads to choose from to engage in partisan banter (of which I am certainly as guilty of as any Poliboard poster, left, right or "other".)

What was political in CD's post? Or do you think he can influence other posters?

And I have no problem if some parts of the country come out of shelter in place. I just want it based on facts instead of emotion.

I agree. I've tried very hard to make my commentary limited to the numbers and their movements.
I just want this thing to end so we can get back to business.
I started tracking this so that I could see what was happening without having to rely on the media to tell me what was happening. After a few days, I thought it would be helpful to others to see it as well so I posted it here.
I personally think that its one of the best resources available now on the internet to see a comprehensive view of what has and is happening. If there is another site that is focused on the entirety of the dataset, I haven't found it.

So instead of possible two 2 month lockdowns, you just want a 6-12 month lockdown
