With the exception of the "giraffe" he forced on everyone, he's been money for Ga. This is why you vote conservative.

Would love to hear from some SEC baws/bawettes how things are on the ground in Ga. I watch Chromedome's thread and have not seen a rise in %new cases/deaths.

However my coworkers, who are decidedly not MAGA and living nowhere near Ga, are telling me about spiking numbers. I rather doubt they know anything more than what they are spoon fed.

Are the breweries completely closed or just closed to the public? If they are completely closed then file that in the folder of insanity.

Our local rag, the AJC, used to post big RED updates with Boomer Doomer numbers (cases/deaths) on their webpage every 6 hours ...

That crap stopped about 2 weeks ago when we opened up because the numbers are nowhere near the doom and gloom projections.

Hospitals are not overrun, neither are morgues. That was the point of the shutdown. Not to prevent spread but to allow time to Build resources when it inevitably occurred. Kemp did that and opened shite back up. Their govs did too, but then changed the goal mid stream

Breweries here are open if they serve food, unfortunately only the shitty/mediocre ones serve food

Just no on-site customer service. They've been open throughout the shutdown for brewing (I think) and definitely for curbside/to-go.

FWIW I haven't sorted through the laws to confirm breweries are still required to shut down, but none here have opened for dine/drink in, so I assume they're being included in the bars category.

I have been keeping an excel doc going with daily GA updates since mid march. Numbers look great.

In fact, in my county with a population of approximately 250K, after 65 days of this farce, we have 11 deaths ...

basically a whale fart in a hurricane.

The local brewery in Lawrenceville is open. Slow Pour, check them out on Facebook.

I know the Athens ones arne't, because they are under the jurisdiction of the county/city, and they don't call it Athens-Cuck County for nothing.

I honestly don't know what the statistics say right now.

I'll say that in-town Atlanta is definitely returning to some type of normal, although a lot of people (responsibly IMO) are taking it pretty easy. I think that's partly a combination of not wanting to unnecessarily risk a spike and partly because we were never locked down that tightly anyway so I don't really know a lot of people who are desperate to go eat out or anything.

A lot of our best restaurants have been doing to go (something they don't normally do) and I think a lot of people around here have, for better or worse, enjoyed the shutdown to some extent. I think this is probably skewed a little because in-town neighborhoods probably aren't feeling job losses like apartment complexes, suburb and rural neighborhoods are.

So not to make light of the suffering at all, but it's been sort of Mayberry around here. We have drink and food trucks come to our neighborhood every week and have happy hours on the street, etc. I think years from now a common theme when talking about this period is going to be "remember how awesome the weather was?"

Do you have a graph for active or new cases? Hospitalizations are a lagging indicator and wouldn’t tick up for a few weeks if things were getting worse.

% of positive test results day-over-day increase, divided by number of new tests day over day increase.

Example,

May 12 GA reports running total of 262179 test results received by health dept. May 13 it is 273904. New TEsts- 11725.

May 12 GA reports running total of 34635 CV+ test results received by health dept. May 13 it is 35245. New Cases= 610.

610/11725=.052 or 5.2%.

That's what this chart tracks, day to day, since March 24.

Chart looks good for GA.
