“No one in CA under the age of 17 has died from covid-19”

That’s irrelevant. ALL lives matter.

Re: “No one in CA under the age of 17 has died from covid-19.”

Same story in Washington state...

Deaths under age 20 - 0%

Deaths under age 40 - 1%

Deaths over age 60 - 90%

Bottom Line...

Protect the aged and the infirm.

Everybody else - go back to your normal life!

Yep, CDC should throw out everything and go with this, perhaps the hand washing reminder.

Indiana was at 9.4% yesterday, with 4 times as many beds still available.

There may be truth to this article’s headlines, or maybe not. I keep going back to the Covid-19 dashboard.

I select “trends”, then “deaths”. I see some funny things going on. A few days ago, NY state had a huge spike that day. NY state had more deaths than the nation. What? Obviously a problem with internal consistency. Now that spike for NY is gone.

To get an idea of what I’m talking about, take a look (quick before it changes) at New Jersey. You will see a two day spike, about 950 deaths each day, preceded and followed by numbers in the 20s or so.

If the state numbers can’t be trusted, can we trust a short term trend for the United States? If people are monkeying around with state data, might they do so in order to generate headlines?

HCQ use in this country was quashed by bogus studies published in The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine, and JAMA. Those studies and others are now known to be bogus, but the damage has been done. Recovery for “science,” policy, or saving lives, is nowhere in sight on this topic.

So perhaps we are having a replay here. Bogus state numbers drive up the trend. The damage will be done before the numbers are corrected. Corrections, “that’s how science works.” Gag me with a spoon.

Note that both charts contain recent history, a marker at the end of the history, and then model projections into the furure.

Yep. Projections that never come to fruition are what has been used scare people - just like global warming.

The actual death numbers are ridiculously low for something that is being used to completely reshape our culture and drive people out of business and out of work.
