We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

Arizona

Cases: The 7-day avg. shot up yet again. This is the highest number of positive cases added in a single day. (Likely catching up from weekend lag)

Testing: PCR testing is up by a couple thousand tests over yesterday. (Likely catching up from weekend lag)

Spread: Overall PCR positive test percentage ticked up again from 8.5% to 8.7% (based on 354K tests, up from a 6.6% low) and the average for this week is 21%. (Be aware this is only based on 269 cases. Total cases for a week are usually between 40K and 50K. Highly likely to fall tomorrow.) EDIT: Or maybe not.

Hospital Utilization: Hospitalizations are up by 4%. Overall ICU usage dropped to 80%, but ICU beds for COVID patients hit all time high. Ventilators in use for COVID also hit all time high.

Texas is starting to get spanked which isn't surprising they have some huge cities.

DFW hasn't blown up yet. I'm not sure about San Antonio. Austin actually has a pretty dense urban center with a LOT of young folk that probably don't take this seriously, so that's not a surprise. I;m not sure what Houston's problem is.

Houston is like the 4th biggest city in the country, that's their problem.

This is as stupid a take as people saying ESPN viewership is down.

Really you don't say? A bunch more stuff is open today than it was a month ago, I am stunned.

Down only 6% from last year and 10% higher than projected. You can keep your head up your ass or pull it out and see the real world outside of this thread. Sadly, I know what you will do.

I think you should use the entire numbers since this started and completely disregard that I was talking about currently where the south is trending upwards higher than any other region.

So are you being intentionally obtuse or are you just a dumbfuck?

That model has been revised and so many different numbers have come out of it that I take whatever it says with a giant chunk of salt.

It wasn't all that long ago that it was predicting 60k deaths.

It's been revised when certain events have taken place, right? It went down to 60,000 because mitigation efforts were being taken more than they anticipated, then increased to 80,000, I think.

The model the task force used way back was 100,000 to 240,000 deaths with mitigation efforts.

And they were right.

Lmao ok man...

Fear Porn is back everyone. We've been open for two months and our average has gone from 1800 people is hospitals to 2200.

OH NO we only have 26,000 hospital beds left!

I've read over this several times and I'm still not sure what they're talking about? I don't understand the statement above.

Even looking at the data I don't see what they're talking about. Someone break out the crayons and break it down for me.

As far as Arizona, Banner hospitals are close to 100% capacity in their ICUs (last I read) and being urged to implement emergency procedures... one smaller hospital in Tuscon is down to its last ICU bed.

And you can have a skyscraper full of beds, but there's also staffing and supplies, etc. You won't overwhelm the beds.

The virus doesn't seem to care about whether people got bored at home or whatever parts-per-million stat that helps prop up agendas... or apparently 110 degree heat. :-)
