Congratulations, now you understand what it is to serve your country in the military

Because there were too many people. But it's one of MANY beaches here, and most had people following the guidelines.

Naples is a little different here as they are the southern tip of inhabited Southwest Florida. They also have fewer access points, so of the 10 miles of beach they have, people tend to congregate in the 3-4 miles of easily accessible.

So the city is doing what they had to do, and will most likely reopen in a few days with stiffer warnings.

Much like kids, sometimes you need to enforce the rules to get get them to understand you are serious.

My wife was at Barefoot Beach, and she said it was very busy but everyone was at least 15-20 feet apart. which usually this time of year, they would be more like 6-8 feet if your lucky.

Yeah, my buddy lives and Naples and seems to think the mayor will open up the beach again soon and continue to monitor if people are following the guidelines.

I’m more upset at the piece of trash human beings who leave tons of trash on the beach.

No wonder we always gotta deal with viruses. Human beings are easily the nastiest animals on the planet.

Its a shame ... bunch of lazy ass people ... its not that hard .... it takes almost no effort .... incredible how lazy some of us are ...

Quite the contrary
The article noted hospitalization and patients on ventilators are down to lowest levels in a month which would mean that closing businesses were helping to reduce numbers given that it takes a couple weeks plus from first getting the virus to requiring hospitalization/ICU care.

You know have to look at new cases and where they are popping up and if hospitalizations trend up in a week or two on out from here

Georgia
New cases yesterday 404
Today 859

cases =/= patients

You're moving the goal posts.

There has been a rise with infections. This rise of infections could be more testing, the loosening of restrictions, etc.

I'm not moving the goal posts.

He tried to compare apples to oranges.

Also, it should be studied why we have an increase in cases and not hospitalizations? HMMMMMM

70% of the population is going to be infected before this is over.

The hospitalization rate of the coronavirus disease?

The overall cumulative COVID-19 associated hospitalization rate is 4.6 per 100,000, with the highest rates in persons 65 years and older (13.8 per 100,000) and 50-64 years (7.4 per 100,000).

Back to work folks. Practice social distancing.

New York Governor finally changes his disastrous Nursing homes policy. Why he ever that thought putting Covid patients in nursing homes was a good idea is beyond me. To think he was even the toast of the media during the crisis because he told great stories about his Mom.

Plenty of jobs available at grocery stores for those out of work. How about they go social distance by delivering groceries rather than showing up to state houses with assault weapons?

Not gonna happen for me, and it will be quite some time before I can go back.

Literally everything I do outside of private one-on-one lessons is a mass event.

Truth be told: I don't want them coming back for the foreseeable future.
I want zero blood on my hands just so I can work my job.

As we open up businesses, there will be plenty of jobs to return to.

There will be a ton of new job openings every week too! As people get sick and die we will need to replace the cogs in the wheel after all... smh

I'm sure there are some meat packer openings right now that pay... something.

With 4.6 out of 100,000 even going to the hospital, your computations are lacking.

Nothing lacking about me except my patience with stupid people.

From the CDC site 2 days ago;

Cumulative COVID-19-associated hospitalization rates since March 1, 2020, are updated weekly. The overall cumulative hospitalization rate is 50.3 per 100,000, with the highest rates in people 65 years and older (162.2 per 100,000) and 50-64 years (79.0 per 100,000).

So 40's post was lacking REAL information?

Allow me to help you again.

Cumulative. The adjective cumulative describes the total amount of something when it's all added together. Eating a single chocolate doughnut is fine, but the cumulative effect of eating them all day is that you'll probably feel sick.

The CDC numbers are cumulative. They also state the longer this goes on the worse the cumulative numbers will be

But the problem is percentages! Particularly the 4.6 out of 100K bit compared to info Lima posted from the CDC saying 50.3 out of 100K. See the problem? And knowing your propensity to do anything that paints Trump in a better light, one might think you are spreading propaganda.

And using Ohio as an example, of all those who have tested positive so far, 18.8% required hospitalization and 5.5% have died.

And my almost 84 yr old dad tested positive about 2 weeks ago, the nursing home told us they would treat him until his bloodwork numbers go down and then call hospice. He was never going to be admitted to a hospital. Saturday his blood numbers were in the normal range. But other than dimentia, he has no pre existing conditions not even overweight

From your CDC update of 2 days ago it does state 50.3
My CDC report was earlier.

Yours also states Nationally, visits to outpatient providers and emergency departments (EDs) for illnesses with symptoms consistent with COVID-19 continued to decline and are below baseline nationally and in all regions of the country.
The decrease in the percentage of people presenting for care with ILI and CLI may be due to a decline in COVID-19 illness, which could be in part a result of widespread adoption of social distancing in addition to changes in healthcare seeking behavior.

Back to work guys.

smh, lol

So that's what the organic farmers are calling it now, these days?
Got it.

Just tryna stay current.

The 100k in that is Population, not Cases.


Essentially, it is a completely meaningless metric.

Yes, I realize that this morning.

Shame on me.

Note to self... No more posting after kicking a 40 of Miller.

Still, it is time to come out and return to work and life!

Heck, even Disney China is open and the kiddies are playing.

Come out Come out wherever you are.

Because China took the virus seriously. If there had been lockdown protesters they'd be in a gulag right now. They didn’t have snowflakes demanding their tips get frosted. The government of China locked everyone down. Delivered food. Made mask wearing mandatory. The Chinese people complied. They smashed their curve and can now resume living.
We have idiots in riot gear calling it a hoax still, while wearing masks... that they refuse to wear to the store... because liberty!!
We’re way behind where China is in all this.

You are so eager that others return to work, meanwhile will you even be out of your house 40? I mean, as far as I know you dabble in day trading from home and seem to be otherwise retired. So cheerleading others into risking themselves for your beliefs is kind of poor form if you ask me. I work from home too, and I'm indifferent as to rather my neighbor goes out to punch a clock today. I only want people to be safe and smart in their actions.

My wife has been working from home and I think her company wanting her to return to the office next week is BS. Her and two others will be on a rotation of one week in the office, then two weeks at home... They are being slammed with calls and orders, she processes many from home. But those in her office that5 chose to continue going in (mostly young low risk people) are complaining that they need help keeping up with incoming calls... Her phone was set up to forward all calls to her cell, but there is a few seconds delay before they ring through allowing those in the office time to answer first. This tech glitch is not worth the risk of her or I being exposed IMHO.

I know that my patience has worn very thin with stupid people like this. 80K deaths might not give them concern for their own safety, but they should damn well respect others who do believe in the science and are trying to protect themselves. I've seen many act out during this thing with frustration that precautions are being taken. More than a few were borderline belligerent about it. If their personal freedoms allow them to act like this and put others at risk, my personal freedoms should allow me to smack them upside the head... but that would be frowned upon for good reason, just like their actions should be.

If you were honest with OCD, you would tell him, as a Nation, trying to hide from a virus is useless and temporary at best.

When has anyone done that to you for serving in the military?

So first China is the evil nation we should blame and now China is the great nation we should emulate?

Make up your mind.

What you don't get is that we are of the same mind on this. I just think you let science and facts lead the way not feelings, politics, and idiots who want a haircut bad enough to die for it. I honestly don't have all the answers on how we should reopen the country, but rushing headfirst into a buzzsaw certainly is not the right call.

We need transparency in leadership, we need actual leadership, we need the truth... then we make decisions based on the best, most complete data we have. None of that is happening right now.

So far, science and facts have brought us BS lists of millions who would die and 2 treatments that only work sometimes.

You gonna be in that basement a long long long time.

Purp thanks for your service, didn't realize you were a salty dawg.
