Also officially canceled public K-12 for the rest of the school year.

Shelter in place starts Friday and ends 4/13. For now.

very little testing, relatively speaking. Georgia is the worst shape of any state in the country other than NY. That'll be apparent in about a week or so.

Atlanta is in bad shape. Csra is showing little signs of an actual epidemic.

What makes you say that? I have no idea either way, just curious

Does anyone know if shelter in place stops people from going outside to run or going to private property to hunt?

Well that’s a detailed claim with no back up at all

Longway, do you have any reason for saying this?

Or is this just a hunch?

Their observed mortality rate is about three times what you would expect, which implies their current testing is painting a full picture of the volume of cases out there. Then when you see that they've tested less than half as many people as Louisiana has, it confirms that thought.


The other issue is that Georgia never took the Medicaid expansion so a ton of its rural hospitals went out of business. So when the mayor of ATL last week said they were about out of ICU beds and you add that to 2/3 of the counties in the state not having any ICU beds to run out of, you are in a terrible position to manage an influx of patients seeking critical care. Georgia is in trouble.

I explained my thinking a bit in another post on this thread. I'd call it more professional conjecture, but I can see why someone else might call it a hunch.
