One of the few TV hosts I enjoyed watching.

Thanks! Posts 18, 20, and 31 make it pretty clear.

Hillary’s tweets have been down right evil. She just now retweeted the New York Times model that’s forecasting 1.2 million dead. That’s based on the UK model Dr Birx has been talking about, the one that got revised down by a factor of 25 this week! That model and the contraction.org one are classic GIGO!

I'm with you on that one completely. I've been saying the same things. That being said, what if the this virus really is as bad as indicated? There are reasons to believe that the loss in life in China is much greater than published. With Americans failing to self quarantine our death rate is rising rather quickly. We really are experiencing full hospitals. We really are short of the required number of ventilators. Doctors describe this contagion as being a miserable way to go.

Given what we have to lose, isn't a little prudence in order? We elected this government. Shouldn't we give them the benefit of the doubt?

I don't believe a few weeks off can deeply damage our economy. We are very resilient.

No problem.

We are seeing what 50 years of un-committed by parents, public school indoctrination has become.

The parents that say they are not smart enough to teach their own kids send them to the same school that didn't teach them to be smart enough to teach their own kids.

There's a whole LOT of psychology in that statement but suffice it to be true, we are not The Greatest Generation any more and it is OUR job (as seasoned citizens) to get into the school boards and stop them ... (I did and they found a way to remove me)

Still a far slower rate of death than the 80,000 who died of the seasonal flu two years ago.

Figuring the standard four-month flu season, a two week period would see 10,000 dead on average that year.

That’s data that actually happened also. Where were you then?

What I wonder is how many kids are subjected to home schooling by parents lacking the real wherewith all to do so

It seems to me that she was fired for telling a rather obvious truth.

After 22 years, surely you've gleaned SOMETHING from the internet.

After a 4 year stint on the school board I can tell you THEY ARE ALL USING THE INTERNET FOR EVERYTHING ! !

My first wife homeschooled 5 kids until cancer took her home.

There are a TON of real teachers out here that assist free, anyone seriously trying to homeschool thier kids.

Matt is using actual CV deaths - CV mortality is the only valid statistic. However, my issue is that rather than evaluate trends on a linear (time reference) basis, color coded graphs are a dead giveaway as to who the MSM is targeting: emotionals (women), rather than managers (men). These types of info-blurbs are effective on the non-critical because they reinforce gross numbers by eliminating context ie time & trends.

Second, when Matt does post a line chart, it's a log chart that presents only cumulative fatalities. Well, until CV is actually eliminated, of course the line will keep increasing! Yet another classic example of how data can be presented to support practically any position. The real chart one should be monitoring daily vs cum, and then calculates the net growth rate %.

(With net growth % you can then determine the "doubling rate" aka rule of 70. Divide 70 by % to find days or vice versa. Example: 70 / 23% = 3 days doubling rate.)

Lastly, the mortality statistics are *constantly* changing as they are corrected, modified and updated - both cumulative totals and daily tallies. If you have access to actual core data, one should stop using 3rd party reference sites - go to the respective wiki page and you will observe the most current, accurate information. On that note, I really suggest people use their own charts to plot their own results. As I keep mentioning, I have an easy-to-use model that is freely available to anyone. Just shoot me a PM for the link.

On that note, here's how the last 5 days compare between Italy & US (net NY). (The models allow you to graph this data a zillion different ways.)

Italy

3/21/2020	4,825	19.7%	793	3.3
3/22/2020	5,475	13.5%	650	3.3
3/23/2020	6,077	11.0%	602	3.3
3/24/2020	6,820	12.2%	743	3.3
3/25/2020	7,503	10.0%	683	3.3
3/26/2020	8,215	9.5%	712	3.3
3/27/2020	9,134	11.2%	919	3.3
										
Growth rate					
28	Days		33.7%		
36	Days		28.8%	

US (net NY)

3/21/2020	240	30.4%	56 
3/22/2020	332	38.3%	92
3/23/2020	362	9.0%	30
3/24/2020	410	13.3%	48
3/25/2020	621	51.5%	211
3/26/2020	774	24.6%	153
3/27/2020	957	23.6%	183

Growth rate					
28	Days		27.8%

Ryan especially punished the Freedom Caucus guys.

Treated ‘em like red haired step children.

Ryan allowed Devin Nunes to remain as Chair of Intel Committee but removed him from presiding over Russia-Russia investigation while months went by on a trumped up ethics investigation for him going to look at some secret NSA documents.

Her coverage of the virus was the best on TV. Hopefully she’ll land on her feet.

Her “Intelligence Report” was really good as well.

"Whatever they fired her for, she was not guilty."

_____________________

Not guilty alright!

Trish was fired for speaking the truth about Democrats and the media weaponizing the Coronavirus against The President.

It stinks.

... she's just plain attractive (and she sings opera).

Total numbers are misleading when comparing countries stats — you have to present these by percentage of total population — the U.S. is not even in the Top Ten in Reported Cases as a percentage of Population (Switzerland is #1). Nor are we in the Top Ten in Deaths as a percentage of Population.

Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics.
