Better....How's D doing? Any update?
Go Canes!
Some of them were when they first hit. Over the years, they've mutated to be less deadly to the host. At the same time, we developed herd immunity so that the symptom's are less life threatening.Coronaviruses aren't usually this deadly for one thing.
Looks like I'm going in for my 5th...
Glad to hear @dsddcane is doing better.
If I have any advice for you guys it is this, encourage your parents and grandparents to exercise caution. Masks for sure, hand washing and gloves, social distancing and stay home as much as possible. The elderly are for sure at risk. Everyone else....
Hey Cush.....................good advice.
My problem is what we do not know about Long Term effects on healthy young people. Short term no probs, but lung, heart, clotting, circulation, issues are scary ****..............down the line.
That is a concerning threat..
If the hospitalizations start spiking, it's really gonna suck down here.Exactly. It's obviously understandable to focus solely on mortality rates but in the case of younger people too many people are viewing this as it's very unlikely to kill you so you'll be "fine". As you alluded to- this doesn't account for lung scarring or any other possible longterm effects that could be verrrry likely if you're one of that larger % that ends up hospitalized but lives.
Nonetheless, welcome to the 5-Digit Club, Florida! We back?
Florida reports more than 10,000 new coronavirus cases, breaking another single-day record
Florida’s Department of Health on Thursday confirmed 10,109 additional cases of COVID-19, breaking another single-day total record and pushing the state’s total confirmed cases to hit 169,106.amp.miamiherald.com

That's why I said usually. Investing money on an event that's happened twice in 131 years is probably not a good strategy, especially when you don't know which coronavirus will make the jump. It's just not financially feasible when the flu is sitting right there ripe for the picking.Some of them were when they first hit. Over the years, they've mutated to be less deadly to the host.

Yeah. The idea of packing fans into stadiums should be completely shelved. Not happening.if hospitalizations and deaths spike this month, you can go ahead and postpone college football. I believe professional sports will continue into the fall but college won’t be played. This month and next few weeks are crucial to college football this fall.
there won’t be fans and that’s not even worth discussing at this point. Now it’s just about playing or not.

Keep your eye on hospitalizations. I'm encouraged that death numbers have been fairly steady around 125K for some time. But if hospitalizations start spiking hard we'll likely wind up in a situation like NY was in a couple months ago where people were dropping like flies.
I haven't studied the hospitalization numbers in all these states that are spiking. If the rates are not spiking, then that tells me either the virus isn't as potent, or the people catching it now are much younger, or a combination of the two.
Anyone know how long it took NY hospitalizations to spike in relation to the number of daily cases. I'm sure there was somewhat of a lag.

Do you have an updated chart, JD? This one is very encouraging despite the sharp uptick in cases.
I update it on the deaths soar past 1000 thread on the covid forum.Do you have an updated chart, JD? This one is very encouraging despite the sharp uptick in cases.
That's the key...This thing is starting to run rampant through the younger population. Cases will continue to blow up because of mass testing, but deaths are totally stagnant and should stay that way:
