It's also just not true. There are probably 4-5 of them in my area alone. Maybe they mean 16 openly flashing a lesbian sign or something.
Ya, this is why (at least several weeks back, I haven't seen direct data on it lately) there were more younger deaths in the south. Our fried food is doing us in...Jacques Strap said:

CNN felt compelled to run an article yesterday about Georgia having over 1,000 new cases on the day the shelter in place order was lifted. Now Georgia has had over 1,000 new cases a day multiple times, early, middle, and late in the month of April. I have to ask why now it was important to mention it since all of these cases would have been infections that occurred during shelter in place measures?
The US also had our 2nd highest day of new case infections since the tracking began. The majority coming from the usual suspects.
Like many other places, Hospital capacity is great and the national guard has been involved with testing sites and setting up extra bed capacity.Osodecentx said:How many vacant ICU/hospital beds do y'all have? Georgia is doing fine, right nowATL Bear said:

Linoleum or Tile sounds a little better in the era we are living in now.
There were 623 new cases and 8 deaths reported today in Georgia. I'm sure CNN will be running a follow up article on the miraculous reversal from yesterday.
This man's voice, like John Ioannidis', is important because history is full of consensus opinions that proved over time to be wrong. But I do think it's important to point out that these are minority views from men with no stake in the game. If they're wrong, who cares? They're just random scientists sharing their opinions with news outlets. I don't think it's a coincidence that those with the most actual risk here are almost universally taking a more cautious approach. That doesn't make them right, but you're talking about gun-to-the-head decisions vs. early round quiz show answers in terms of the stakes involved here.Jack and DP said:

I wonder if demographics of that list would tell us who, predominantly, is at higher risk of obesity?
Race, socio-economic, location, sex, etc?

Mississippi is posting data by race.

Does anyone get that?

BRISTOL, Tennessee/Virginia state line Joe Deel is behind the chrome-trimmed turquoise counter of his legendary diner, The Burger Bar, working with his wife Kayla, daughter Emily, and sous chef Corey Young; they can see people going in for lunch at the State Line Bar and Grill just across the street from them less than 50 yards away in Tennessee.
But their round, black-topped stools in Virginia remain as empty as they were nearly two months ago when the coronavirus first shut down the country.
There are a lot of towns in our country that border neighboring states, but few quite like this one, where the town sits in two states and shares the same name and traditionally vibrant business district along State Street.

The new Mrs. Whitetrash (a/k/a txturtlegirl on the premium board) and I had lunch at the table next to the cactus where the 2 chicks are sitting (one with her purse on the back of her chair, one with the waterbottle under her chair) on March 15, the day after our wedding and just before the world shut down. It was an improvised honeymoon after we (wisely) cancelled our planned trip to New Orleans. It was the last normal thing to happen.
