Have you noticed that for the most part.
Even doom is divided on party lines .

It wasn't at first till Trump told his cultists that this wasn't a huge deal. Then they decided to downplay this.
At first everyone right and left was panicking like headless chickens.
On day 1 I was fighting seemingly on my own against everyone here trying to dispell this madness and calm people down.
Ppl from both sides attacked me personally and questioned my morals for telling the truth which I based upon research and critical thinking. They were demanding I be censored and posts were deleted.
I saw they were lying by pushing fake death statistics so I knew this was bogus from the start.
I'm literally baffled I'm in the minority on this issue...
When Trump echoed my assessment I felt blessed because I knew suddenly half of you were forced to agree with me finally because Trump said so.
And what do ya know?
Half of you doubt the MSM hysterical disinfo propaganda now.
Like it was magic.
But really it's because they worship dear leader and will blindly agree because anyone in a political party already proved they cannot think for themselves.

Hearing Seattle is almost at capacity/overwhelmed, and NYC is not far behind (in a week) if additional measures aren't taken.
There is a 2-3 week period where infected people feel fine, the people who will be seeking treatment next week have been ill for a while. I would like to hear about "additional measures" that can change that.
Tl;dr:
Analysis strongly suggests that the NYC metro area has 5–10 days to quarantine the city or face dramatically overwhelmed hospitals, extremely high death rates, and a ruined economy.
The outlook for NYC and COVID-19 is bleak. The policy response is far too slow and too weak to meet the needs of the moment.
This note started as a twitter post on Wednesday March 11.
I’ve attached updated charts with two additional days of data to this note.
Using an SIR Epidemiology Model (described in greater detail in my previous Medium post), we can use the Low and High estimates for infections on 3/13 to project #COVID19 growth through March. Then using those projections for infections, we can use a conservative 10% severity rate to get the number of people who are infected on that day that will require hospitalization (severe & critical cases).
The NYC region has between 1,200 and 3,000 open hospital beds. This analysis suggests that enough people will become infected by March 23 and March 25 that NYC’s hospitals will be fully at capacity approximately 7 days later. (Infected people who will become severely ill do not immediately need medical care upon being infected. There is approximately a 5–7 day incubation period. After which, most severe cases present to the hospital within 2–3 days.)

I have a flip phone which lives in my car. For emergencies. Never used it for such. Yet.
$18 a month. It's worth it.

Slow down. Take a look here: bibbase.org... It's pre-set for South Korea, so un-check that box and check US. Then click on "log scale" and "show death rates." On most every country you can see how the "sky rocketing" death rates have dramatically leveled off. This is constantly updated and is a good way to show differences over time.

And how do you feel about the White House shutting down travel from China, like they did, when they did? Was that a good or bad move? Was it bigotry?

South Korea (doing it right) and Italy / Europe (who will more represent the US) are the ones to watch. Though we don't have long to wait ourselves.
