guess you’ve given up on Labor Day?
I can’t really predict what Murphy will do, but assuming we stay on this trend (and I believe we will) this will be essentially over (still spreading but very few hospitalizations and deaths) by June. I’d guess over but that’s probably pretty close.
Positivity rate and change in hospitalizations.
^ Those are the only metrics which will make me reassess my expectation.
Right now, both are trending in the right direction.
Dr. Osterholm also said he wouldn't go to a restaurant even if he had the vaccine. Man is crazy.
Cases have not leveled off, they are continuing to drop. Only 40,000 recorded yesterday, the lowest daily number since September 28.
There is no surge coming. If there is any increase, it will be very modest.
There will not be another surge. That variant may just become the predominant one people get infected with if they get infected.
Fauci and Osterholm are correct that now is not the time to let our guard down. If we take the threat seriously, there will be over soon. If we don't, then it may extend longer. That's really all they are saying.
This is all just very self fulfilling. If the public takes the risks more seriously, it will have less of an impact. If the public takes it less seriously, it will have more of an impact.
In my opinion, the motives of Fauci and Osterholm are to present worst case outlooks so people will tend to continue to take precautions now instead of looking at the trends and thinking that it is over now. We're very close, just not quite there yet.
Here come the vaccine passports. Every American must fight against this with everything we've got. It's discrimination and a direct attack on our freedoms.
I find it ironic that the airline industry is pushing this, thinking it will increase travel. It will have the opposite effect. I had to laugh when the article says it'll be "temporary." Yeah, right.

I'm just laughing because I mentioned this months ago and I was called a "fear mongerer" for it. I believe even from you. Was I wrong?
First 13 days reported for each month - New hospitalizations
December - 2,621
January - 6,724
February - 1,803
March - 1,304
My guess as to why the number of curranty hospitalized isn't falling as quickly right now is that there are probably some people with longer stays who are in more critical condition.
As long as the number of new hospitalizations doesn't spike, we are still in good shape.
And almost 3 million vaccinated in NJ now. We are in great shape.
Why based on those stats and the development of a vac do you continue to fail to acknowledge that Biden said dark winter purely for theatrics? And why do u respond with stats to the ghost with a hazmat suit and citizen of year award ?First 13 days reported for each month - New hospitalizations

Family of mine includedMore than 300,000 people died since he said that.
That wasn't theatrics. He was right.
And your fact that it was 300k )assuming you mean US only) is wrong.More than 300,000 people died since he said that.

was a great day on golf course in Florida today. Too bad I can’t enjoy selection show
Maybe. Maybe not.Ghost in a suit? Yeah man I changed my whole life this year because of a couple family members that live with me that have MAJOR health complications. You are going to make fun of me because of that? Maybe you should look yourself in the mirror.
Maybe. Maybe not.
I don’t get why you bash pols for doing what you do. I thought it was tongue in cheek. I really don’t care what you personally decide to do. I do give a shit about pols ruining small businesses and children’s learning efforts
Please ask Dan to post the instructions to voluntarily withdraw- it was confusing when I tried. Or u can explain. ThanksI just reported this post for foul language and have requested for this poster to be suspended. Thank you!

And u apparently assume they caught it that day then died
and you assume no other causes
And you assume no games with numbers (because nobody played games with numbers afraid of what would happen to political issues (lol))
and u yet again ignore my statement which was akin to trumps that SINCE OCTOBER AT LEAST average length of hospital stay is WAY down
Yes, I am talking about he US since Biden is the president of the US.
Yes, I am correct that more than 300,000 Americans have died since Biden said that comment. October 22nd 215k deaths. Today 546k.
That diff is >300k, right?
Yes, there is evidence that these are excess deaths well above what we have seen in prior years and are absolutely attributable to Covid.
You want to celebrate that 300k+ have died in recent months because people aren't staying in the hospital as long?
I think it’s been a great, bright winter. We pushed out a vax. Needless deaths because of improper ventilators have been avoided. Btw the number is more like 250 but it’s still not dark thanks to my second and third sentences.

1993, please post instructions as to how I can cancel my account. Will gladly do within 24 hours of you posting it because the negative dopes on trove have already gotten me to try, to no avail. PS, why haz mat suit if you don’t go out?
