COVID-19 2020

Ok but Maryland had 96 deaths and Virginia 23


Not sure where the deaths are but it’s not good

MD is climbing up the list of states in terms of infections…it passed Washington state this weekend

I wonder if most MD deaths and infections are in Montgomery County and Prince George’s

Maryland is concerning

Nearly 100 dead yesterday…like 900 new infections

Where are you getting 100 dead for Maryland yesterday? This says 23:

Maryland's peak death day is today:

Virginia's peak death day is April 25:

That’s where I am getting it

Can’t you read a chart?

It says 96 new deaths for Maryland …obviously if reported at 9 am it’s the deaths that happened yesterday

how hasn't anyone remixed Paul Hardcastle's "19"?

19, 19, co-co-co-co-co-covid 19….

Those charts are based on GMT, which is four hours ahead of us. I've always just assumed the numbers are for deaths reported TODAY, and they update the numbers throughout the day. Maybe the 96 you're seeing for today is a bit high whereas the 23 for the previous day was a bit low. Maybe some of the previous day's deaths didn't get reported until today. That seems more likely that a one day jump from 23 to 96.

My wife's results came back negative which is borderline incredible to me because she is on day four of a fever over 100, a constant cough, and body aches that ramp up dramatically overnight. I wonder how accurate these tests are. Maybe she just has a weird, random post-Easter flu?

My sister took the test during a long low grade fever where she was freaking out she had the virus

Anyways came back negative and she said 30% are false negatives..not sure if this is true…I don’t think she had covid19

I hope your wife feels better soon

She'll have to wait like me for the anti-bodies test when it comes out and then when they say "you've already have the infection" she'll say "I fuckin' knew it."

If it's any consolation, other than a slight chest restriction, I've felt pretty good since my few days of hell (over two weeks ago now).

Yep, this is exactly what I told her. Stay inside and talk to no one and XX months from now when we have reliable antibody tests, I'll put dinner on it coming back positive.

Thanks. Just read something that showed a (relative small sample size) test done in China and the nasal swaps were only hitting at like 73% accuracy in a known-COVID group. WHO KNOWS?

So many retards

I think we refer to those with MAGA hats as intellectually challenged
seems they are going to need our sympathy more than our distaste

While I agree these people are idiots and putting others at risk…these rallies are a few hundred people and the news is showering them with attention (which they love and need)
it's not like the 20K people who showed up armed for the 'gun rally' in richmond

" Gov Kemp announced that gyms, fitness centers, bowling alleys, body art studios, barbers, cosmetologists, hair designers, nail care artists, estheticians and massage therapists can reopen their doors on Friday — as long as owners follow strict social distancing and hygiene requirements."

Heard Hogan’s press conference and boy did he step up, with that deal with South Korea for testing kits.  Meanwhile in GA…

Let’s wait and see…the feds may intercept them and steal them

fyi, kemp = GA.  i had to look it up…

You know, for all people rag on Georgia, it was super bold of them to elect hilarious obese former basketball star and father of a multitude of children, Shawn Kemp, as their governor.

Meme game particularly strong at the moment
