    Default How come we aren’t seeing all the protesters

    in Florida, Texas, and Arizona with the Governors cutting back on openings? Where are the Chuck Norris wannabes armed to the teeth showing up at the State Capitals? How come we aren’t seeing the angry individuals screaming about “freedom” and autocratic Government? We got no tweets offering support, no coverage on Fox, what’s up with that?

    Maybe because of stuff like this idiot?

    NY 164 deaths per 100k
    CA 17
    TX 10
    FL 19
    NJ 174

    **********

    How are cases reported?

    We have three levels of case definition: suspected, probable and confirmed cases. What is measured
    and reported by governments and international organizations?

    International organizations – namely the WHO and European CDC – report case figures submitted by
    national governments. Wherever possible they aim to report confirmed cases, for two key reasons:

    1. They have a higher degree of certainty because they have laboratory confirmation;

    2. They held to provide standardised comparisons between countries.

    However, international bodies can only provide figures as submitted by national governments and
    reporting institutions. Countries can define slightly different criteria for how cases are
    defined and reported.4 Some countries have, over the course of the outbreak, changed their
    reporting methodologies to also include probable cases.

    One example of this is the United States. Until 14th April the US CDC provided daily reports on
    the number of confirmed cases.
    However, as of 14th April, it now provides a single figure of cases: the sum of confirmed and probable.


    Suspected case figures are usually not reported. The European CDC notes that suspected cases should
    not be reported at the European level (although countries may record this information for national records)
    but are used to understand who should be tested for the disease.
    https://ourworldindata.org/covid-cas...cases-reported

    ***********

    Even your heroes at the NYT provide the disclaimer now....................

    In data for the United States, The Times is now including cases and deaths that have been identified
    by public health officials as probable coronavirus patients. Some states and counties only report
    figures in which a coronavirus infection was confirmed through testing. Because confirmed cases are
    widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, some state and local governments have started
    identifying probable cases and deaths using criteria that were developed by states and the federal
    government.

    Confirmed cases and deaths are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a
    laboratory test. Probable cases and deaths count individuals who did not have a confirmed test but were
    evaluated using criteria developed by national and local governments. Some governments are reporting only
    confirmed cases, while others are reporting both confirmed and probable numbers. And there is also another
    set of governments that are reporting the two types of numbers combined without providing a way to separate
    the confirmed from the probable. The Times is now using the total of confirmed and probable counts when
    they are available individually or combined. Otherwise only the confirmed count will be shown.
    https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...es.html#states

    ***********

    So, if you don't like the ECDC who have stated the guidelines or
    the left-wing NYT for confirming that those data methodology guidelines are correct......
    just what data do you follow? Twitter & FB????

    **********

    ECDC reported correct numbers for cases and deaths.
    The U.S. CDC has inflated ours by COMBINING probable & confirmed reports.
    You've been lied to. We all have. Get woke.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Central Florida’s largest hospitals out of ICU beds but say they can scale up if COVID-19 demand increases
    Orlando Health can surge ICU capacity to 500 beds, officials say

    ORLANDO, Fla. – Some of Central Florida’s largest hospitals are out of adult intensive care unit beds and running low on regular hospital beds, according to the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration hospital bed dashboard. However, local hospitals say they can increase their capacity to meet coronavirus demand should the need arise.

    In Seminole County, the number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients reached a new record high on Tuesday, according to a news release from the county.

    Official figures show there are 203 coronavirus patients hospitalized -- an increase of 40 compared to the previous record set over the weekend -- and hospital bed availability is down to 13%.

    Central Florida Regional, Orlando Health South Seminole, AdventHealth Altamonte Springs, Encompass Health Rehabilitation hospital of Altamonte Springs, all have 0% ICU beds available. Oviedo Medical center has two ICU beds available, according to the AHCA hospital bed dashboard.

    In Orange County, Orlando Regional Medical Center, Orlando Health-Health Central and Orlando Health Dr. Phillips Hospital are showing zero adult ICU beds available.

    News 6 reached out to AdventHealth and Orlando Health, the regions largest healthcare providers, to verify if the state-run dashboard is an accurate reflection of local hospital capacity. According to the AHCA, the dashboard was updated as of Tuesday afternoon.

    Orlando Health Director of Public Affairs Kena Lewis said the AHCA dashboard is up to date with information provided by the hospitals but the numbers don’t reflect the overall bed capacity because, if needed, they can scale up to meet increased demand.

    “In mid-March, as patient volumes declined and fewer beds were needed, Orlando Health began consolidating units to reduce the number of beds – including ICU beds – that were staffed and in operation. The current operational bed count is what we report to AHCA and what appears on their website. That number is not Orlando Health’s total bed capacity. Across all of our operations, we have nearly 3,300 beds. Nearly 200 of those are ICU beds and we have the capacity to surge up to 500 ICU beds if it becomes necessary,” Lewis said in an email. “We are carefully monitoring the increases in patient volumes. If the need for additional beds grows, Orlando Health will re-open units and make other necessary adjustments in order to meet the needs of the community.

    In response to inquiries, AdventHealth issued this statement:

    “AdventHealth’s facilities across Central Florida have sufficient capacity to care for patients, including those with COVID-19. Our hospitals are designed in such a way that spaces are flexible and expandable. We have sufficient supplies of ventilators, monitors and other specialized equipment in order to quickly convert spaces in the hospital to both standard and ICU level rooms. We did a significant amount of planning in March and April to identify areas that could be converted if needed. AdventHealth also has an extensive health care system in place here in Central Florida so we can locate patients to the facility that best matches the level of care they need.”

    Orange County health officer Dr. Raul Pino, with the Florida Department of Health, said on Monday that hospitalizations have increased locally in the past two weeks.

    As of Monday, Pino said 357 people were hospitalized in Orange Country with coronavirus. He said that was an increase of 164 cases since June 28.

    There are 72 people in Orange County ICU beds as of Monday, an increase of 35 cases since June 28, according to Pino.

    Pino said although there has been an increase in COVID-19 cases in hospitalizations the healthcare systems in Central Florida are not at capacity. He said sometimes hospitals are able to add more beds as needed.

    “The systems are reporting that they are not concerned about the need for a surge yet as a system,” Pino said. “It could be that a hospital have more cases in order and things have to be shuffled and readjust.”

    He said as of Monday morning 500 hospital beds were available across Orange County, 499 ventilators and 50 ICU beds for adults and 46 pediatric beds.


    Across the state since March 1, 16,425 people with COVID-19 have been hospitalized, on Tuesday the state reported 380 new hospitalizations. However, the Florida Department of Health has never reported the current number of hospitalized coronavirus patients.

    More than 213,000 people have tested positive for the novel coronavirus in Florida since March and the state is approaching a death toll of 4,000 deaths with residents and non-resident fatalities.

    Only tards like you don't see how it was the planned narrative. It's why the democrat governors and mayors told police to allow BLM protests so they could ensure the cold virus would spread and they could get more numbers for the stats.

    too bad we aren't allowed to get hydroxychloroquine. It would stop many ICU beds

    Yeah. I'm sure that's why the main areas of spread are in states like FL & TX.

    There is no "narrative." America planned poorly & responded poorly. We're one of the worst nations in the world on this issue.

    Personally, I think the numbers are bull shit. I just posted a video in another thread about how Illinois is computing COVID deaths(basically, if you die in Illinois, you die of COVID). So I'm getting tired of the bullshit. BUT! My favorite Mexican restaurant won't let me in for pick up without a mask, so I wear one. I figure the last day I'll have to wear it will depend on the election. If biden wins, he'll cure the damn virus in less than 24 hours. If Trump wins, I'll probably be wearing the damn thing until 2022, if not longer

    We've got it here in Florida. A million doses free of charge from Modi for hospitals that want it.
    I would think that any terminal patient (or their family member) could ask for it since Trump passed "the right to try act" in 2018.
