yeah we are only catching 10% cases so in most states the rate of cases is just the amount of testing. A better method of seeing how many people are infected in each state is to count the deaths and assume the fatality rate is around 0.5-0.7% and calculate the cases from that.
I think a lot of the current spread is in places that people aren't able to social distance (prisons, work at meat packing plants, health care workers, etc.)
How do you propose infecting 80% of the population asap without massively overloading the hospital system. 20% of NYC got infected over 2 months and their system was on the brink of being overloaded.
looking like a trend to a weak la nina as summer goes on and atlantic/gom temps are above average. Wonder if we will have a couple tropical systems impact the midwest
Yeah definite trend upwards with temps, also no lows forecast below 36 in the point so the last freeze may have already happened here.
Also dewpoints don't look to drop below 20 any more which my skin will definitely appreciate
increasing evidence that Hydroxychloroquine has either no effect or a slight negative impact on patients being treated with it:

i feel ya. It seems like the past 3 or 4 aprils have featured tons of NW flow with below normal temps. it would be nice if we could get some more zonal or sw flow and get some warmer temps and higher dewpoints in the area.
the only person that's been called a moron and idiot in the last 5 pages is the governor of Florida. I don't see any other name calling recently and everyone seems civil.
