Anne in Rockwall, TX म्हणाले...: Lately, I've been wanting some good news. This morning I got some.

I can see red! Looks like the nerves are repairing themselves. Still can't make anything out looking with my left eye, but I can see blobs of the full range of colors. I should be able to get a lens implanted to correct the vision issue, that is yet to be determined, but, by golly, the colors are back.

The orange in this picture is drop dead gorgeous. Thank you Althouse.; २/४/२०, ११:३० AM

Temujin म्हणाले...: Gorgeous sunrise. But..red sky in morning, sailor take warning. Is that a red sky forming? Or just the way the image is shot? Are you getting weather there today?; २/४/२०, ११:३७ AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: I’ve come to the conclusion Biden was always just a figurehead as Veep, never had real responsibilities delegated by Obama, and was just there to provide contrast to the young, Black, energetic and progressive president. He was just anther piece of furniture at the Whitehouse. He’s pretty much still an inanimate object.; २/४/२०, ११:४४ AM
eric म्हणाले...: More evidence we are all being scammed.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/have-many-coronavirus-patients-died-italy/

In Italy 88% of the deaths from Coronavirus had at least one underlying illness they were already dying of. Some two.

But they counted them as coronavirus anyway.

And did you see the news about the hospital ships in LA and NY? They've had a total combined patient count if 18. That's it. Combined they have 2,000 beds but have only helped 18 people.

But wait, I thought the hospitals are being overrun!

This is the greatest scam ever run.

We have destroyed ourselves for nothing.; २/४/२०, ११:४४ AM

I hope he is right.
One of the main reasons we have taken such extreme steps to flatten the curve is *precisely* to give us a chance to find and ramp up “game changers” of which chloroquine is the leading hope. If chloroquine is our savior then the distancing has been a spectacular success.; २/४/२०, ११:४९ AM
Howard म्हणाले...: Great News, Annie C.

The reflection looks like the plume from a Saturn 5 rocket.; २/४/२०, ११:५१ AM

Ken B म्हणाले...: “ In Italy 88% of the deaths from Coronavirus had at least one underlying illness they were already dying of. Some two.
But they counted them as coronavirus anyway.”

People live with high blood pressure or diabetes for years or decades. If the virus assaults their system so harshly that they die of these complications then it is obviously right to count that death as viral. We are counting deaths to assess a threat and predict future needs.
No virus no death.

Similarly, if the lockdown drives some to suicide it is sensible to count those deaths as a part of the harm the lockdown has done. And yet you will find most of those suicides had “preconditions.”

Some reports say type A blood is a risk. Are they, trying to blacken the reputation of an innocent virus by their choice of blood type?; २/४/२०, १२:२७ PM

Update on the @IHME_UW
model versus reality in New York STATE: reality is still winning. 56,000 hospitalizations and 11,000 ICU beds projected for April 2; 13,400 hospitalizations and 3,400 beds used. Reminder: this model was released ONE WEEK AGO.; २/४/२०, १२:३५ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Nothing going on in NYC

Except they are leaving cardiac arrest patients to finish dying where they are rather than take them to the hospital. These won’t be counted as victims of the virus though, so people should feel good.; २/४/२०, १२:३८ PM

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Glad to hear the good news, Annie.; २/४/२०, १२:४७ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Looks like mortality was maybe not so bad as we thought in Europe when you look at total deaths.

https://twitter.com/J_CD_T/status/1245739661449977867

Oh wait, I read that backwards.

Those people who suffered cardiac arrest and couldn’t get into a hospital in NYC? They are not COVID dead, so counting total deaths is totally misleading.; २/४/२०, १२:५४ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: "Questioning how this is being handled”

That’s one thing, but so often it ends up being questioning the seriousness of the situation.; २/४/२०, १२:५५ PM
Francisco D म्हणाले...: That's great news Annie!; २/४/२०, १२:५६ PM

That’s wonderful! So happy for you.

And this sunrise is an especially beautiful and tranquil one.; २/४/२०, १:१६ PM
Ken B म्हणाले...: Walter: "You don't caaarrrreee!"

One guy here keeps dividing the death count by 330 million. This is what tim calls rhetorical math. The resultant fraction tells us nothing of the spread of the disease. Nothing about its future. It has no probitive value in assessing the threat or future losses. So what purpose does it serve? Denigration. It is a dismissal of the number, and hence of the lives, as trivial, unimportant.

So some really don’t care.

As for you I believe you'd care if you understood. You don’t. But neither do you try to; you don’t take any of the analysis seriously. You certainly don’t care enough to do that.; २/४/२०, १:१७ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: "Because it is inherently intertwined.”

I am just asking, because it’s not clear, are you saying that it’s not that serious?; २/४/२०, १:१९ PM
Ken B म्हणाले...: 1049 covid deaths in the USA yesterday.; २/४/२०, १:४६ PM
walter म्हणाले...: Ken,
My comment was referring to the implication that people would "feel good" about any death.
Tim,
The definition of "that serious" seems to be a rolling definition.
15 days, 30 days..Gates suggesting 11 weeks.; २/४/२०, १:५३ PM
Rosa Marie Yoder म्हणाले...: Wow! That's frameable.

My cousin in Indiana is recovering from Covid-19, thankfully. Healthy male in early 50's/ From his FB post on 3/27/2020: " I thought I was being cautious - I washed my hands more, used sanitizer, coughed into my elbow, and tried to observe social distancing, and still got it. I think I know where I picked it up but there is no way to know for sure. I know that I potentially exposed several other people, including my family, and until we know for sure that none of them contract COVID-19 it is a weight that I have to carry knowing that I may have compromised others.

I am typically very healthy, and proud of the fact that I rarely get sick. I believe I have a strong immune system, and don't fall into the normal categories of high-risk individuals. Regardless, this hit me hard. I have been sleeping up to 16 hours a day the past several days, and feel like I got hit by a Mack truck with the full body aches. Although I still don't see it listed on the "official" lists of symptoms, I have had a loss of taste and smell for almost a week now, and for me this was the first sign that something was wrong. After a runny nose over the weekend and the loss ofthis and smell, when I saw a news story Monday evening that indicated this was a possible symptom, I took my temperature. At the time it was 99.5, but by 10 PM it was over 100. Although 5 days have passed, I still feel tired and lethargic, and I can only imagine what this disease does to those people who have less developed or compromised immune systems."; २/४/२०, १:५५ PM
walter म्हणाले...: In any case, I will continue to post different information I find interesting without accusing anyone here of not caring or being lazy.; २/४/२०, २:०० PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: “1049 covid deaths in the USA yesterday.”

Same as yesterday, so that’s good.

"I will continue to post different information.”

And people will continue to shoot holes in it if it’s innumerate crapola.; २/४/२०, २:०६ PM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: I also really enjoyed the Sunrise this morning. Awesome red sun, and mild temperature.

(Glad to have read of red, Annie!); २/४/२०, २:२६ PM
Michael K म्हणाले...: Annie C, I assume you are seeing a retina doc. Good news on the colors. Has anyone looked at your lens ? Did it get dislocated ?

Hope you are seeing very good ophthalmologists. There are guys who do front of the eye and back of the eye,. See both.; २/४/२०, २:२७ PM
gadfly म्हणाले...: Rush Limbaugh said on March 11:
“This coronavirus, they’re just — all of this panic is just not warranted. This, I’m telling you, when I tell you — when I’ve told you that this virus is the common cold. When I said that, it was based on the number of cases. It’s also based on the kind of virus this is. Why do you think this is “COVID-19”? This is the 19th coronavirus. They’re not uncommon. Coronaviruses are respiratory cold and flu viruses. There is nothing about this, except where it came from, and the itinerant media panic…”

WHO's standardized name of the disease causing the current outbreak is “2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease” (where ‘n’ is for novel and ‘CoV’ is for coronavirus). So Rush is wrong about a lot of things including Trump competency and the deadly novel coronavirus - but he cannot even research its name on Google where we find that the "19" in the ID is for 2019. Sadly, stage 4 lung cancer eventually takes control.; २/४/२०, ३:२० PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Rush is wrong about a lot of things, but not about Trump.; २/४/२०, ४:०० PM
brylun म्हणाले...: That's your best sunrise picture of all! Nice!!!; २/४/२०, ४:०३ PM
Big Mike म्हणाले...: After weeks of brushing off the COVID-19 pandemic as "dumb," the billionaire Tesla founder earlier this week announced he had 1,000 "FDA-approved ventilators" and ended up donating 40 to New York City's hospital system. Except the devices Musk gave away aren't powerful enough to use in the ICU, and health officials have actually warned against using them on COVID-19 patients because they could spread the virus further.

The machines he bought were called BiPap machines, which turn out not to be suitable for COVID-19 patients. Just because he’s rich and smart, doesn’t mean he knows everything.; २/४/२०, ४:५१ PM
Big Mike म्हणाले...: @Annie C., wonderful news! Please keep all of us informed as you continue to improve.; २/४/२०, ४:५३ PM
Francisco D म्हणाले...: Big Mike

I read that article and wondered if the "journalist" understood the subject matter. It was very poorly written.

The difference between a c-pap (which I use) or bi-pap and a ventilator is like the difference between a bicycle and an automobile. I know almost nothing about Elon Musk, but I doubt if he was the one who was confused.; २/४/२०, ५:१९ PM
Narr म्हणाले...: Dittoes, Annie C.

I think they were CPAP machines and there have been reports they spread the virus.; २/४/२०, ६:२० PM

More gadfly ignorance. The corona viruses are common cold viruses as well as the cause of SARS and MERS, both of which do not have human to human contagion.

You opinion of Rush Limbaugh and Trump are just more examples of the loony left.; २/४/२०, ६:२३ PM
Ken B म्हणाले...: Per the CDC, SARS is indeed spread human to human, by droplets, during the infectious stage. Closer contact is required than with Covid.
