Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19) (SARS-CoV-2) [2020]

The day to day variation is double digit percentages ... 1.97 has too many digits for significance by 3.

With elective surgeries resuming for a couple weeks already the ICU occupancy seems completely normal. The total deaths last week likely dipped below last years and is on course to do the same this week. I see no indication to think the second wave isn't just an artefact of severe undercounting early on.

The number of hospitalizations on the chart referred specifically to 'Covid19 hospitalizations'. The % value is a specific value, it's value is in that it is part of a trend. You say they fluctuate, but the past 5 days they have been trending up
 
You say they fluctuate, but the past 5 days they have been trending up

Both these statements are true, another statement which is true is that 5 day upwards trends of this magnitude have been happening multiple times since diagnosed hospitalizations stabilized mid April.
 
Certainly you want to keep hospitalizations down. But it's better to try to lower new infections.

There are several studies showing the effectiveness of masks, especially if there's high enough compliance.

But there's a lot of opposition to mask mandates. The head of Orange County, CA public health resigned after protesters threatened her and her family and the county lifted the mandatory mask requirement. They instead said "strongly recommended" wearing masks in public where social distancing isn't possible.
 
Here in the UK, my wife is awaiting surgery some time during the next few months (she'd have had it already but for the lockdown which stopped pretty much everything in the NHS not Covid-related) and it was interesting to hear that we've got to isolate as a household for 2 weeks before her surgery. Quite a sensible action, I suppose, to reduce the risks of importing cases into hospitals as much as possible. Won't make my life any easier when I've got to keep away from work before the surgery to isolate and then after the surgery to look after the children as she recuperates! This is where an early test would be really, really useful. Not heard anything about the early test supposedly developed by Darpa to check infection very early on since the reports back at the start of May. Does this mean it doesn't work as hoped?

As of 11:00 am June 12, 2020, DCHHS is reporting 328 additional positive cases of 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19), bringing the total case count in Dallas County to 13,585, including 280 deaths.

The additional 3 deaths being reported today include:

  • A man in his 60’s who was a resident of the City of Richardson. He had been critically ill in an area hospital, and had underlying high risk health conditions.
  • A man in his 60’s who was a resident of the City of Garland. He had been critically ill in an area hospital, and did not have underlying high risk health conditions.
  • A man in his 60’s who was a resident of the City of Irving. He had been critically ill in an area hospital, and had underlying high risk health conditions.
Of cases requiring hospitalization who reported employment, over 80% have been critical infrastructure workers, with a broad range of affected occupational sectors, including: healthcare, transportation, food and agriculture, public works, finance, communications, clergy, first responders and other essential functions.

Of cases requiring hospitalization, more than two-thirds have been under 65 years of age, and about half do not have any high-risk chronic health conditions. Diabetes has been an underlying high-risk health condition reported in about a third of all hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

The age-adjusted rates of confirmed COVID-19 cases in non-hospitalized patients have been highest among Hispanics (667.4 per 100,000), Asians (187.4 per 100,000) and Blacks (136.4 per 100,000). These rates have been higher than Whites (43.8 per 100,000). Over 60% of overall COVID-19 cases to date have been Hispanic.

Of the 280 total deaths reported to date, over a third have been associated with long-term care facilities.

Data as of 6/12/2020 @3:40 PM:

Total Tests: 1,404,369 (Up +34,238)

Total Viral Tests: 1,226,957 (Up +20,637)

Only 87.4% of Total Tests are Viral Tests the other 12.6% of tests are the useless
Antibody Tests

Cases Reported: 83,680 (Up +2,097)

Fatalities: 1,939 (Up +19)

Texas tests per 1M population are 47,253 (Up +733) which places Texas as the 7th worst State. No change from yesterday.

Click this link: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us and on the page click the Tests / 1M pop column twice to sort from worst to first

They are using roughly 28.996 million as the population of Texas.

Texas is mixing Viral and Antibody Tests in the total test numbers which is very bad as Antibody Tests are useless in determining if someone has the Coronavirus.

As of today the real number of Total Viral Tests for Texas is 1,226,957 which works out to be 42,314 per 1M population so Texas is really the 4th worst state in testing

Ohio's testing is now open up to anyone who wants to see if they are currently sick with Viral testing. They are not doing any efforts to do any mass testing or focusing on trying to see who may be asymptomatic carriers. Nor are they doing any efforts to see who may have been sick previously through AntiBody testing. They're perfectly happy to put the blinders on and hope for the best.

Testing is at 15.1K. The number of deaths increased, possibly just a spike, difficult to see if it aligns with any possible spikes in hospitalizations or ICU admission. The trends continue to be on the lower side but rising towards the average, especially once the large numbers drop off the 21 day rolling average.

Lately Ohio has been hovering around the 1% new cases daily number, which means doubling around 63 days.

Arizona Governor Won't Require Mask Use as Coronavirus Cases Spike, Says People Need to 'Learn to Live With' Virus
Since Ducey's stay-at-home order expired last month, Arizona has reported sharp spikes in cases over the past two weeks. As of Saturday June 12, the total number of coronavirus cases in Arizona had exceeded 34,400, with 1,183 deaths caused by the novel disease. About 1,540 cases were added to the figure since Friday, when the state saw 1,654 new infections, the single-highest rise in one day.

During a press conference on Thursday, Ducey told reporters that while he encourages Arizonians to "wear masks when they can't socially distance" in public, he will not be following other states in enforcing face coverings by law.

Ducey encouraged citizens to "learn to live with" the virus and said it won't be "going away" anytime soon.

...

Ducey also defended his decision to reopen Arizona and attributed the rise in cases to the state's increase in testing capacity.

...

Arizona Department of Health Services Director Dr. Cara Christ echoed Ducey's sentiments, saying that the state will not "be able to stop the [coronavirus] spread" and citizens "can't stop living as well."​
 
Testing is at 7.3K. The trends continue to be on the lower side but approaching the average, especially once the large numbers drop off the 21 day rolling average.

This is where the US may be vulnerable to states which aren't even trying to slow the spread.

In the EU countries are actively blocking people from other countries if those countries are not handling the pandemic well. So for instance Sweden is being singled out even as most of EU and Schengen open up to each other.

Unfortunately, it's not easy in the US to block people from say Arizona from driving or flying to other states.
 
More potential fiddling of testing numbers here in the UK:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...mes-raises-concern-over-covid-19-test-figures

Care homes are apparently being sent many more test kits than requested - often two or more times as many. This isn't a bad thing in itself as it is useful for them to have the swabs ready if further tests are required in the future.

However, our government is counting tests mailed out (not even returned) in their daily testing figures, so perhaps we're seeing the figures effectively being overstated even more? Most things this government do are outsourced to various generalised service companies (as with our new contact tracing system). If this is the case with the testing kits, it wouldn't surprise me if they were deliberately sending out more tests than requested to massage the numbers and reach an arbitrary target. The sort of thing these outsourcing companies do all the time as they know they will continue to win contracts even if caught out and fined. Or perhaps I'm being too cynical? Nah, probably not.

As of 11:00 am June 14, 2020, Dallas County Health and Human Services is reporting 302 additional positive cases of 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19), bringing the total case count in Dallas County to 14,232, including 284 deaths. The additional death being reported today includes a man in his 50’s who was a resident of the City of Dallas. He had been critically ill at an area hospital, and had underlying high risk health conditions.

Of cases requiring hospitalization who reported employment, over 80% have been critical infrastructure workers, with a broad range of affected occupational sectors, including: healthcare, transportation, food and agriculture, public works, finance, communications, clergy, first responders and other essential functions.

Of cases requiring hospitalization, more than two-thirds have been under 65 years of age, and about half do not have any high-risk chronic health conditions. Diabetes has been an underlying high-risk health condition reported in about a third of all hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

The age-adjusted rates of confirmed COVID-19 cases in non-hospitalized patients have been highest among Hispanics (667.4 per 100,000), Asians (187.4 per 100,000) and Blacks (136.4 per 100,000). These rates have been higher than Whites (43.8 per 100,000). Over 60% of overall COVID-19 cases to date have been Hispanic.

Of the 284 total deaths reported to date, over a third have been associated with long-term care facilities.

https://txdshs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/0d8bdf9be927459d9cb11b9eaef6101

Data as of 6/14/2020 @3:00 PM:

Total Tests: 1,463,851 (Up +20,901)

Total Viral Tests: 1,295,983 (Up +35,664)

Only 88.5% of Total Tests are Viral Tests the other 11.5% of tests are the useless
Antibody Tests

Cases Reported: 87,854 (Up +1,843)

Fatalities: 1,976 (Up +19)

Texas tests per 1M population are 50,485 (Up +721) which places Texas as the 9th worst State. No change from yesterday.

Click this link: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us and on the page click the Tests / 1M pop column twice to sort from worst to first

They are using roughly 28.996 million as the population of Texas.

Texas is mixing Viral and Antibody Tests in the total test numbers which is very bad as Antibody Tests are useless in determining if someone has the Coronavirus.

As of today the real number of Total Viral Tests for Texas is 1,295,983 which works out to be 44,695 per 1M population so Texas is really the 5th worst state in testing
