Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 42.8% increase in coronavirus cases in one week - Am I going to die?

Then, there are these Covid tests.

A CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists) friend just texted me info on their in house hospital tests.

The antibody test takes 45 min but has a 50% false positive rate. Then if positive, they do the nasal swab, which takes 3 hrs. It has a false 20-30% negative rate if done correctly. All this delays procedures and surgeries, backs up the schedule.

So, positive and negative predictive values on those test are terrible. They try to hit a happy medium, hoping for false positives over false negatives.

That's what happens when the govt. jumps in with billions of dollars to crank out tests. Too much pressure for a quick fix and this is what you get.

I think the billions and billions they're pushing at these big pharma companies to crank out a vaccine gives me about the same level of confidence.

Those lab and pharma conglomerates are in a feeding frenzy, raking in billions.

I'll let you guys take the first vaccine. I'll stand back and watch.

No the best estimate since Adam & Eve, to today is 100 billion dead. Might as well keep that ticker going too

Do any of the believers KNOW when The Corona hit the lower 48?

Maybe not you, but how about your mom and dad..Is them being in there early 70's dieing okay instead of living to 85-90?

Nobody on this forum talks about there parents getting the virus and dieing...It is the real deal to some including the younger folks..But who cares huh?

Racist remark.

The CDC is now calling it PIC. Pneumonia, influenza like, and Covid 19. So it is now things that may kinda almost could be china flu. Naturally that is mixed with allergies, but just as deadly.

I'm gonna hedge my bets and just blow my brains out.

After this beer....

Hope the beer is good.

The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) collects death certificate data from vital statistics offices for all deaths occurring in the United States. Based on death certificate data available on July 16, 2020, 6.4% of all deaths occurring during the week ending July 11, 2020 (week 28) were due to pneumonia, influenza or COVID-19 (PIC). This is the twelfth consecutive week of a declining percentage of deaths due to PIC. The percentage is above the epidemic threshold of 5.7% for week 28. Data for recent weeks are incomplete, and the PIC percentage may increase as more death certificates representing deaths during these weeks are processed.

Weekly mortality surveillance data include a combination of machine coded and manually coded causes of death collected from death certificates. Percentages of deaths due to PIC are higher among manually coded records than more rapidly available machine coded records. Due to the additional time needed for manual coding, the initially reported PIC percentages may be lower than percentages calculated from final data.

After that beer,tell us about how you feel about your parents/uncles/etc contracting the Covid?

Tough chit huh..There gunna die anyway..

LOL

CLI, covid like disease that identify as china flu. You cannot call an allergy an allergy if it wants "it" be called a woman or covid.

NSSP is a collaboration among CDC, federal partners, local and state health departments and academic and private sector partners to collect, analyze and share electronic patient encounter data received from multiple healthcare settings. To track trends of potential COVID-19 visits, visits for COVID-19-like illness (CLI) (fever and cough or shortness of breath or difficulty breathing or presence of a coronavirus diagnosis code) and ILI to a subset of emergency departments in 47 states are being monitored.

Nationwide during week 28, 3.5% of emergency department visits captured in NSSP were due to CLI and 1.1% were due to ILI. In comparison to week 27, this week there was a slight decrease in the percentage of visits for CLI and ILI remained steady. However, both CLI and ILI percentages during week 28 were higher than they were in week 26. This could be due to changes in healthcare seeking behavior around the holiday that occurred during week 27.

During week 28, five of 10 HHS regionsexternal icon (Regions 3 [Mid-Atlantic], 4 [South East], 5 [Midwest], 7 [Central], and 8 [Mountain]) reported a stable or increasing percentages of visits for both CLI and ILI compared to week 27. Three regions (Regions 6 [South Central], 9 [South/West Coast], and 10 [Pacific Northwest] reported a decreasing percentage of visits for CLI and ILI during week 28 compared to week 27 but the week 28 percentage of visits for CLI and/or ILI was higher than what was reported for week 26. This could be due to changes in healthcare seeking behavior around the holiday that occurred during week 27. Regions 1 (New England) and 2 (NY/NJ/PR) have not reported an increase in CLI or ILI in recent weeks.

Do they wear them side ways and low or backwards?

Holly chit TerrK..Do you realize where your posting..Facts are fabricated and the regulars here a 10' tall and bullet proof...

The question is,how many care if there elders get it and die 10-15 years premature?

Do they care?

LOL!

Real simple solution for you. How about any old people you know who are scared of the Corona stay home, and you bring them what they need to survive. You can leave it on the porch, they can hose it down with bleach, everyone is happy. The rest of us can go on living our lives of danger.

I'm sure the 'elders' would be much better off if the entire economy collapsed. How about EVERYONE go home for 3 weeks? By everyone, I mean [bleep] everyone. No cops, no hospitals, all electricity turned off. Everyone just stay home, will that fix it? Or do you think MORE will die from that measure?

Of course everyone, everywhere has to stay home. Having a baby, tough [bleep], clear off the kitchen table. Heart attack, tough [bleep], die, we have to get this COVID under control.

Logcutter,
