  1. Some nice views where they mixed in re-opening timelines, but I'd still like to see things like age & hospitalizations mixed into the counts and also go down to zip code level for each county.
  2. For those that get hospitalized, what's the average timeline on infected-> feeling sick -> in the hospital? How quickly do they go downhill? What's the average length of a hospital stay?
  3. Like when there's a car accident, both drivers are sober, but the passenger is drunk and that's now considered an "alcohol related accident?"
  4. Should we have imposed a NYC shutdown in March or when we needed to do it? America isn't a one size fits all country, but unfortunately we (Texas) applied a one size fits all approach once Manhattan started getting fucked. Hindsight says maybe we should waited a touch instead of expending our stay-at-home capital when there we're only a couple dozen cases in Travis county.
  5. Six of one, rape dozen of another
  6. Shaggy long game
  7. "Written For" minstrel shows vs "Performed At" minstrel shows?
  8. Maybe if the band would slow it down to normal speed this wouldn't be an issue
  9. The power/ internet goes out
  10. Yup. Think of how far behind some of our schoolkids are going to be if this continues into the Fall. While "The Economy" is the loudest conversation right now, what about "The Education of our Kids"? I get that some kids are raised by older adults, and we should find solutions for the children in those families. But for your average 5th grader who has parents in their 30s and a teacher that's 45, the risk is relatively low. The danger of keeping those kids at home "learning virtually" is pretty high. And that's just the educational aspect. We're just now starting to hear about some of the abuse cases caused by kids raised by parents who probably shouldnt be parents, and the stories are pretty horrific. Oh, and a by-product of kids going to school are adults that can go to work.
  11. Seems like a hospitalization count or death count, by age, would be an even better way to present the data, especially if it's current, not cumulative. If we do ramp up testing, tallying up thousands of positive college kids who were asymptomatic doesn't tell the whole picture.
  12. No point other than you have to start somewhere. Net loss is not a good long term business plan. But if you can get crafty with the $45 in GA costs, maybe you can make it work until phase 2. Maybe waiting until phase 2 is the better choice, but by then who knows what meat prices will look like. This virus doesn't affect everyone the same. Opening Luby's doors wide open vs opening Hat Creek's doors wide open will have two varying effects on the community.
  13. Wouldn't the shelter in place model be something like this: Sell $0 Food labor $0 Overhead $45 Loss $45
  14. Arent lawsuits factors of the bottom line?
  15. ... It was Ziegler
  16. Scott left out a key piece of information in his tweet: "Emma was diagnosed with pneumonia on March 15 " Humans who are already in difficult situations are going to have a hard time with this virus.

  18. I kinda want these places to be open once I come out of my shelter, so I'll try to support them as best I can. Maybe throw everything in the microwave for ten seconds first. That should do it, right?
  19. I dont think anyone's going to fight you over that.
