I think we should shut the FDA, CDC and NIH down after this. We certainly don't need the FDA, we can trust drug companies to do the right thing. Let the lawyers keep it in check. can you imagine the Red Tape and the bureaucratic Administration between all these agencies ---why not just make them into 1 Agency that can act more efficiently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 When the original thread started, we had of course limited but some data about the virus. Some drew upon the historical data to try to make some sense of this strain of pathogen. Some good progress was made and now we have more data to crunch. Still a ways to go to gain the perspective needed to answer some remaining questions. More data needed. All in all, thinking a pretty good job of it. It is after all a difficult job. Thanks to all the ones here who are making a contribution to the understanding. Just doing the best job that I can with the tools that I've got... another old saying.

CECAA850 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Here the population of our county is 255,001. There have been 472 cases and 26 deaths which is 0.000102% of the population. Infected are 0.001851% of the population. There's a push for more testing and now you don't have to be symptomatic to be tested. I'm sure with more testing there'll be more positives but we're not seeing a spike in positives.......yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
