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!

If only it was that simple. Everyone did. I guess every medical expert in the world sucks. Like it or not he is the best we got.

Perhaps publicly but unless he ever came out and said he underestimated it then we would probably never know for sure what his advice might have been behind the scenes. I think he is serving a necessary but impossible role of trying to say things that produce the least amount of reaction while maintaining a steady presence of remaining open to possibilities.

The quotes earlier about the chloroquine treatment that were posted are a perfect example. He basically said nothing when he said it may be effective and it may not and that’s perfectly fine from him I think. He doesn’t say don’t give it because it’s malpractice or the other extreme and say you should absolutely give it. He has to be as measured as possible and avoid definitive statements where possible to avoid unnecessary controversy.

"...assuming full social distancing"

I think we all can agree that that isn't happening and I sure hope those projections are off. Just based off traffic on the roadways here very few people are truly only going out for essentials and when they do they have no regard for social distancing when they're after a specific thing.

But the numbers have dropped dramatically.. Like.. A staggering amount. I don't know if I trust this model, but I want to.

been saying that from the jump. The economy says different but the eye test people are doing the same shit the always do especially if they didn't have the money to begin with to go to restaurants bars nightclubs concerts bowling etc.

Very true. Gotta believe if he wasn't doing a good job he would have been replaced by now.

I think the stupid ass Gov. of MO is doing this whole stay at home order a little too late. For the last month I've been out a ton and the stores are completely full and then Friday he announces this order and Wal-Mart looked like it does around Thanksgiving and Christmas. This shit has already spread and it's just a matter of time.

Missouri was at somewhere around 2k projected deaths a few updates ago and now we're all the way down to 350ish? And last update had our peak all the way in late May and now we're back to peaking in about two weeks.

I believe projections of death are off by a factor of over 10.
