From prior thread (great table but probably not updated yet):

- - - -

DoughtyOne has made up a great Excel file to track the data we do have. Y’all can add your own uncertainty factors if you wish.

It’s likely just my machine, but when I right-clicked on the original hot-link & tried to open it, IE tried to open it as a .htm file and I got gibberish. (I don’t have a MS spreadsheet program on this machine.) But I instead saved the .htm file and opened it with Libre Office Portable, which worked fine.

As I replied to D1, so far, the spread into countries outside of China, which data I tend to believe, seems well controlled at this point - remarkably so, in fact. The question is whether a “breakout” somewhere will occur. If the Ro value is as high as some suggest, I don’t see how a breakout will not occur. We shall see.

I think I need 3 monitors...

Outside of China, this seems to be contained well. There are only 2 reported deaths and fewer than 600 cases.

For me, the big unknown is South America and Africa. They may not even have test kits and may see no upside to obtaining them. There could currently be pockets of infection which are fully unreported. Other countries would not even be aware that quarantine efforts should be employed for incoming travelers from these areas.

Naw, you need one 80 inch curved monitor. I saw a programmer with one, it was amazing. Curved around the front of him.
