    Well of course, that always helps. Just look at school shootings...all of our thoughts and prayers have been answered finally with COVID-19 arriving to quell school shootings.

    Given the emerging evidence of prolonged disability among Covid 19 survivors we should probably stop focusing on deaths as the only number by which we judge this disease.

    That's partially the critique 538 has of the UW model.

    More criticism of the UW model from epidemiologist like Harvard's Marc Lipsitch:

    Based on 21.2% in NYC testing positive, this implies 1.78 million people are/were infected! The data has yet to be provided though.

    Also still puts the CFR between 0.5% and 1%
    Which is why I suspect Sweden's report is tripe.

    Yeah, I remember that. I think he is pretty skilled at building statistical models though, so that's where this discussion was going. anyhow, take a gander if you're interested. they give the UW guy props and say it's a bold move to predict when states can open, number of deaths, that sort of thing...but they questioned the accuracy of the model...that said, the dude at UW was saying it's an evolving model that's updated as they get more information.

    So sad. How can there not be demand for potatoes? Basic food staple. The government can’t figure out how to pick them up and take them to shelters? Spend billions on bombs but not a few grand on feeding starving people. Humans are doomed.

    hearing more about Roche's Actemra as a treatment for advanced cases, obviously this is anecdotal but it does make sense on the surface at least: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local...911_story.html

    Interesting--it's an antiinflammatory/immune suppressant used for some of the same conditions as hydroxychloroquine. Blocks one of the cytokines of "cytokine storm" fame.

    I keep wondering about Sweden's experiment. I am still convinced they are hoping all the brown people let in from the M.E. die from it.

    Hey! Scripps changed its name- when I was there it was The Scripps Research Institute. The logo's different, too. I like the old organic molecule better.

    its rarely a problem with demand or production, it’s the inability of the supply chain to connect the two.

    This is Scripts FL btw. I've seen their massive automated drug sensitivity testing lab in action and it rivals even large pharma. V impressive.
