#BREAKING: An infant in Illinois has died from COVID-19, according to Governor JB Pritzker. https://t.co/tQ7DQxOErX— 13WREX (@13WREX) March 28, 2020

Ecel projection of the number of deaths in the US based on reports, and the current factor of 2 rate (every 3 days now). At some point, increasing levels of quarantine, population immunity (some say when around 60% have had it), and advances in treatment will begin to slow the doubling rate.

One could work back from these number to estimate those who've been infected, recovered, rough date population immunity acquired, or the virus basically runs out of US citizens to infect...keep in mind they are interdependent and must be considered, plus issues related to decreases in availability of medical services, as the outbreak progresses, included.

Any and every encounter could result in infection. Even with a mask and gloves.

This is a big red flag for cities across the nation.

Missouri daily report; up from 670 to 838 and one new death for a total of 10

None in our county so far. 6, up from 4 in the county North of us and would be considered west metro St Louis and I’m thinking the cases are probably on the Eat side of Franklin County.

I am a regular scanner listener, I’ve noticed some changes. Now, every dispatch call contains information about fever, and if it is not given, the EMTs ask. Also, if it’s a suspected cv case they get information sent to their cabs (not given out on the scanner). Medcon is also dispatched for every case with a fever, difficulty breathing or heart issues.

NEED medical attention.

Augh.

I notice those Ohio numbers are no where near as close to the 100,000 prediction by that medical officer of health. Let’s hope it stays that way.

The CDC declared “community spread” on Feb. 26th.

So- we are Delta plus 32 (days) today. US deaths: 1,984.

Based on where we are, I would have to say that the UNPRECEDENTED mitigation measures are working.

I don’t know why you are starting your “Ecel” projection from 1,696?

I don’t know why you are starting your “Ecel” projection from 1,696?

That should be Excel, and 1,696 is the number in the US who have died, as of last night. So going forward, today is day 1 of the projection (not listed).

Amen! LOL 😆

The CDC declared “community spread” on Feb. 26th.

Also, maybe I didn't realize what you were saying/asking. Community spread is different from community/population/herd immunity, which is what I was referring to in the above post.

[plain talk]

LOL
