Some data on Covid-19 and why we're not over reacting...

The protesters, the pussies, are a distinct minority. The world, literally, the WORLD is laughing and shaking their heads at those idiots endangering their communities, their families.

I have been "locked down" because my wife is doing all our shopping runs. She goes in to help out at her friend's restaurant most days, shopping for supplies and working the front counter for the takeout customers and delivery people.

A woman came in to pick up a delivery order a couple of days ago, but without mask or gloves required in San Diego for all food handlers. When my wife asked her to leave and not come back until she had mask and gloves, the woman shouted obscenities and grabbed the mask off my wife's face. The delivery service has banned her and SDPD are reviewing the security video.

Times are tough and when the going gets tough the tough retain their composure.

You dont work, you self absorbed piece of shit.
Think about the millions who have lost their jobs, businesses, and are on the verge of losing their homes.
You really are a selfish cocksucker.

Yes, locked down.
I like to buy a cigar once in awhile and I drove by my local smoke shop today to get one.
The owner was there and everything was gone out of the shop.
He said the city shut him down.
He's done.
My barber and my cigar guy, and my favorite Mexican restaurant is hanging by a thread.
Hope you're happy, you slimy wrinkled up old douchebag.

Hi, I think this is a really good piece of information. The different approaches to dealing with Covid-19 will definitely have different results. My biggest issue, and this is just an observation, is much of the data and analysis is so binary. Meaning its mortality rate, its this, or that...its singular. I'm guilty of it. This is a multi faceted situation and if you focus on only one area only, you will disregard others that make an impact to society, country, commerce, well being, etc.. Think of weather...which area of the world is best? If you focus on just temperature, you are eliminating, humidity, wind, precipitation, elevation, etc. from the equation and may leave out a better place. My vote is San Diego...used to live there...I think this is the same in terms of the many factors that need to be determined to figure out the right course of action for dealing with this. It is so multi-faceted that there are so many variables to consider. We can all focus on one area, spin a narrative one way or the other (not blaming or pointing fingers at anyone...just replied to @espola 's post because I thought the data point was intriguing), but there are a combination of variables that are in play to come up with the best solution for our country in terms of how to deal with this and move forward. It is very dynamic. Lots of perspectives and views. Nobody and I mean nobody wants people to die. Nobody wants others to be in financial ruin, distress, without food, shelter, lose their livelihoods, homes, etc. People have different perspectives based on their experiences, and some feel more strongly than others regarding guidance provided, freedoms, choice, data, etc. There is a balance or Goldilocks Zone here somewhere. I just hope our elected leaders can find it before we all beat the shit out of each other. Its getting ugly out there and on here.

Along those lines, I keep watching India. Their weather is very hot and humid right now, and this started late March/early April. But, as you stated, weather is only one factor. What about population density? Healthcare? Health of the population in general? Average age of population?

This is why I'm interested in India. They are 10x denser in many areas than New York, their healthcare isn't nearly on par with the US, many smokers (70% of males smoke), not the most sanitary in some areas. Yet their cases remain relatively low when compared to other countries.

As of today they have 18,985 total cases, 13.95 per million. US has 824,698, 2,502 per million. New York alone has 139,385 cases. So why does India have so few comparatively? A big difference is the heat and humidity.

Let's hope hotter weather gives us all a breather (no pun intended) and gives science the time it needs to figure this virus out.

How about just asking the banks to put everything on freeze until the country can safely get back moving? Why do those greedy fucks have to be the only ones the rules don't apply to?
