Figures lie and liars figure as they say. We know there is noise in the data. Its now coming out that there is a lot of noise. But news outlets get paid by views, eyeballs, etc. So sensationalizing things, especially in headlines is more than typical. So get a many sources as possible. Try to get the root sources. Either this thing is a modern plague or its a bad flu or somewhere in-between - the data is still not telling us. And ANYTHING and EVERYTHING coming out of or sourced from China has to be taken with a pound of salt. ALL communications from China go through government controlled gateways. Nothing gets out without government approval. Any individual twitter post, or other 'on-the-ground data' or other information from China has to be cleared by CCP. Just keep that in mind.

A view from a Swiss doctor with a lot of details as to the situation in Italy. Somewhat of running daily log of findings. A Swiss Doctor on Covid-19 – Swiss Propaganda Research Some excerpts (less than 50%): March 22: Regarding the situation in Italy: Most major media falsely report that Italy has up to 800 deaths per day from the coronavirus. In reality, the president of the Italian Civil Protection Service stresses that these are deaths „with the coronavirus and not from the coronavirus“ (minute 03:30 of the press conference). In other words, these persons died while also testing positive. .... Current test-positive death figures in Italy are still less than 50% of normal daily overall mortality in Italy, which is around 1800 deaths per day. Thus it is possible, perhaps even likely, that a large part of normal daily mortality now simply counts as „Covid19“ deaths (as they test positive). This is the point stressed by the President of the Italian Civil Protection Service. According to Italian Professor Walter Ricciardi, „only 12% of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus“, whereas in public reports „all the people who die in hospitals with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying of the coronavirus“. March 23rd: A leading Italian doctor reports that „strange cases of pneumonia“ were seen in the Lombardy region already in November 2019, raising again the question if they were caused by the new virus (which officially only appeared in Italy in February 2020), or by other factors, such as the dangerously high smog levels in Northern Italy. Switzerland: Despite media panic, excess mortality still at or near zero: the latest testpositive „victims“ were a 96yo in palliative care and a 97yo with pre-existing conditions. March 24: The UK has removed Covid19 from the official list of High Consquence Infectious Diseases (HCID), stating that mortality rates are „low overall“. The director of the German National Health Institute (RKI) admitted that they count all test-positive deaths, irrespective of the actual cause of death, as „coronavirus deaths“. The average age of the deceased is 82 years, most with serious preconditions. As in most other countries, excess mortality due Covid19 is likely to be near zero in Germany. March 25: Using data from the cruise ship Diamond Princess, Stanford Professor John Ioannidis showed that the age-corrected lethality of Covid19 is between 0.025% and 0.625%, i.e. in the range of a strong cold or the flu. March 26: Italy: The renowned Italian virologist Giulio Tarro argues that the mortality rate of Covid19 is below 1% even in Italy and is therefore comparable to influenza. The higher values only arise because no distinction is made between deaths with and by Covid19 and because the number of (symptom-free) infected persons is greatly underestimated. Link has diagrams and pictures. One is of the smog in Italy in February 2020 that is an interesting picture. There is also a link to an English version of Italy statistics I posted a few days ago. Here is that link: https://www.epicentro.iss.it/coronavirus/bollettino/Report-COVID-2019_20_marzo_eng.pdf Take care all.

This statistic has remained constant since last week. - States with zero deaths seem to have either no large metro areas (NE, MT, ID, AR etc.) or are low density states (NM). - With the exception of Washington and Louisiana the states with high percentage of deaths per case are states with low numbers of total cases - like Kentucky. - The state with the most data - NY - has a death per case ratio of less than 1%. There is a lot of noise in the data for sure but as more comes in the "model" of what happening may clarify. Right now just somewhat organizing the data to see what trends there may be. Examples if the first bullet above. The Big 4 have been the Big 4 for a week now.

That pot of water getting a bit warm, Mr. Frog?

I just quoted him because of the concern about the hording of hydroxychloroquine. I had not idea his background.

For those that want to seem some numbers from Italy. You can practice your Italian trying to read this but a basic chart is at the bottom of the second page. https://www.epicentro.iss.it/coronavirus/bollettino/Report-COVID-2019_17_marzo-v2.pdf

Dr. Oz was begging that that not happen earlier today.

Another tracking site with a different view of data. The COVID Tracking Project - Most Recent Data Kentucky specific: The COVID Tracking Project Daily history tracked here. Also total test and results of tests.

Reports showing up that hydoxychloroquine (Malaria med) is working well after only a day or 2. Update: A combination of Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin actually results in eliminating the virus in patients within days. Actual 24 page study is here for those with medical background: Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin as a treatment of COVID-19.pdf - Google Drive

Saturday 3/21 numbers. These come from the worldmeter website and use the "Yesterday' tab that should show a full day view. The default view is somewhat 'real time' and updates throughout the day. The reason I capture these is that there is only a 'Yesterday' and not a running daily that would be more useful. Certainly NY is where the news is. Cases continue to ramp up aggressively there. NY and NJ contributed basically half of the new total cases.

If that is the cause of death then these should be looked at closely since that would match #1 in my other post.

This should not be the case. The cause of death if it solely comes from the virus should be one of two scenarios. 1. ARDS - basically the lungs filling with with water and junk. This is when the respirators are needed. 2. Cytokine storm - overactive immune response. It looks like this is harder to detect and appropriately treat. In theory, a death from virus should be somewhat obvious. The co-morbidity thing is tricky.

For some reason a doctor told extremely exaggerated story of the ICU he works in. H did this via a "private" message but it went viral. He claimed it was filled with young people on ventilators. The hospital was forced to publicly address this. It seems to point out how inaccurate stories can circulate - that even come from supposedly good sources. Beaumont doctor exaggerates hospital conditions during coronavirus outbreak; health organization responds The question would seem to be why would he spread this story even in a private message.

Some ATT stores are closing or already closed. The one in Lexington will stay in operation due to number of government contracts managed out of store. Rules when in the store - only 2 people in a group. If not enough reps to engage people or groups then name added to list and told to leave store until called.

An overview video that give a great overview of the situation by a NY professor. Overview of viruses, corona viruses, transmission and the math of the flatten the curve approach. Good biology to start. Good numbers to finish up. A bit long at over 39 minutes. Good if you have time. Maybe skip through to catch parts of interest if 40 minutes is too long. Some notables: 1:20 - Humans carry an average of 5 viruses in them at any time. 9:40 - The 3 novel corona viruses and their differences 19:42 - Range of symptoms 21:00 - Containment/mitigation 26:20 - This is where the flatten the curve math starts

Not really. NY is recording cases a much greater rate. But most states have more cases at much lower rates. Kentucky is actually a very low growth state. I believe these are confirmed via formal test numbers. Most people acknowledge actual number of those with virus is much higher. This is using numbers from worldometer website above. NY is over 7,000 now today (3/20).

New or newly found. This thing is in the wild already and probably well spread globally. Especially if it has 'airborne' characteristics (still a debated issue). As testing increases, 'new' cases will increase. I saw something where 6 of 7 people who are infected are asymptomatic. So as testing increases more cases will be found in people who are not sick and will never get sick or show anything worse than cold-like symptoms. The numbers will likely explode. But is that spreading or existing infections that have been there for a while. The next test needed to answer this - how long have you had it test!

Second column is cumulative amount of the overall total. This also shows how Randy Parkers post above could be correct since only 2 states basically get you 50% of the US cases.

An interesting tid-bit I found: Copper and copper-alloy (that are mostly copper) surfaces are very anti-coronovirus. This is from a study in 2015. Apparently the ions from the metal disable and/or kill the virus after just a few minutes.

You will. My son and DIL were to go during spring break. They were going to leave out of Puerto Rico. For them the airline was more problematic since they did not do the RC airline package.

That is an assumption that is not made when prepping/stocking by most. Depending on situation potable water may or may not be available. Water supply can be contaminated by a lot of things or the people that maintain the supply may become disabled or not able to keep it going. Or - in the case of hurricanes or other broad-scale natural disaster the water supply can easily contaminate. Even things as simple as water-main break can suspend water supply to homes. See Houston recent event as example. And without water coming out of the faucet then things can get rough. Just saying this is the thought process that leads to the panic - some valid, some less so. In this case it seems everyone has heard the supply-chain may be threatened since things are cut off from China. Not sure if people assume that TP comes from China.

Here is where the world is at right now. Some websites have posted that COVID-19 could live in the air, in an aerosol state for up to 3 hours. This is based on study that has not yet been peer reviewed and is brand new. And even if it is reviewed and approved - it just says in "could" be in an aerosol and in the air for 3 hours. Aerosol transmission is the Armageddon of viruses. Thus, if aerosol transmission that last 3 hours were verified as true - this would definitely justify the mass cancellations. Of course, if this scenario where happening the entire Jazz ensemble should be all infected. Thus a very known data point seems to vary from some of the doom and gloom stories. The CDC official website on how COVID-19 spreads makes NO mention of aerosol transmission. There are also reports - that the virus can live on surfaces for 24 hours. This is an eternity compared to other to known virus behavior for that scenario. But, it 'could' happen and this is a 'new' (novel) virus. The CDC website does not provide a timeline on how long the virus may live on a metal or other surface. The CDC website does say that the virus appears to spread easily through a community.

Supply chain interruptions, social chaos, natural disasters, etc. result in empty shelves. And the two things that become scarce first in these and similar situations is water....and TP. And neither has an alternative or a good alternative if not available. So these two items are tops on the "prepper list". And now we know who all are closet preppers or at least have their list ready.... Real story - a childhood friends lives in north Florida. When the hurricane(s) were threatening he did offer to let people stay on his 2 or so acres in campstyle mode. But what was something that ran out and he had to ask for on facebook - toilet paper.

Windstream DSL....copper...10 Mbps down (pay $5 extra a month for that, otherwise 5 Mbps) and 1 Mbps up. And when it rains it slows down. And when everyone in the neighborhood is on Netflix on Friday night - it slows down. And we are one county outside of Fayette. But outside city limits. So no cable and Metronet told our HOA people to pound sand on expecting any new service soon.
