COVID

It's all fucked up. The numbers are all artifact of reporting. I'm not even going to post them. They're not trustworthy. I'll show you this Cases graph from Hopkins to prove the point:

You see those two deep troughs in black? Know what days those are+? November 26 and December 25, Thanksgiving and Christmas. I bet the reporting isn't going to get back to normal until after New Year's, when the reporters go back to work. The numbers aren't reliable, not the dailies, not the 7-day averages, not the 14-day changes. You cannot set health policy based on garbage data. Garbage in. garbage out.

It is disgraceful. A mature, advanced society doesn't track the greatest public health catastrophe in its history like this. The United States of America does.

Out.
