NOTE: If Your state is not green it should not be opening AT ALL . It means somethings off whether it be infection rate, rate of testing or hospital preparedness.
The train of thought comes from TRMS where she showed NY extracted out of national data and its scary ... like this ceiling scene in the movie Aliens scary
Looking at the data it looks like the "bug" is right up on us and about to bite us in the buttocks
covidactnow data looks at on the county level
- Ro
- Positive rate
- ICU headroom used
What's still scary is there are tons of counties with ... NO ... information about the bug.
This is messed up, please stay in the know.

The state has to be green and the majority counties have to be green

(15,450 posts)Why bother. I think the fact that only 8 percent of the ventilators were used is quite good. Im sure Ill get a negative remark somewhere down the line.

(90,225 posts)... the only permanent issue people have to deal with after catching this bug.
I can see deaths in stats as a bottom line number but it's not; CV 19 scars the lungs ... getting sick from this bug is horrible in and of itself.

(15,450 posts)I just wish we could find absolute perfect numbers somewhere. It seems like all the states are guessing. This is a mess!!!!

(32,626 posts)No state has tested a large portion of their population, and often deaths aren't recorded. The numbers that are available are all we have, which is why Fauci and others believe the actual numbers are much higher. The lack of testing is to keep the numbers down. I don't think Trump could make it any clearer. He does not want people tested. ...except himself and those around him.
