unclevlad Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Well, more like 3 at least. You need several days of confirmation or it's just a blip. And the notion of re-opening by June 1, that I think Trump mentioned...THAT is hooey, IMO. You're gonna try to re-open when the death rates are pretty much where they are right now?

ScottishFox Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Ok, this might be a better youtube link. Although they say Chloroquine and not hydroxychloroquine which is what shows up in the twitter feed so... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclevlad Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Oh...one piece of cautionary advice. We don't know if that 2 weeks til peak statement was the best-case prediction. There's multiple possible predictions depending on conditions assumed. The models should be getting fairly good, too, with data related to this outbreak to tune the core epidemiological models, but there's that...and there's decent margin for error, too. So there's a very good chance IMO that was the optimistic time frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From French Ministry of Health. From major news sites with plenty of supporting evidence. Point me to the story *on France24* even. It's not there. EDIT2: sorry if that sounded harsh. But it's gonna get echoed around and around on YouTube. We need outside support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 heard the Knicks owner got it. Given their feelings, I do kind of wonder if some of the more bitter Knicks fans aren't a bit happy about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
