Lots of self-proclaimed geniuses on here...so

Explain why the US is the only nation that will experience 'EXPONENTIAL' cases of C-19 over the next week(s) when, to date, NO nation has. I'm no math wizard, but aside from political ideology, Priority Club points, or some wacked out desire to witness the apocalypse live and in living color from the comfort of your living room...exactly why all the doomsday wishes?

We are still in the infancy of this virus. There have only been like 330,000 worldwide cases so far.

But the operative word is: exponential. Where has it manifest itself? It's easy to use the word...not so easy to justify its application.

Every country, with a few exceptions, has had exponential

growth. Japan and South Korea are outliers. We are right at 16 days behind Italy in case growth. It is the same in Spain, Germany, soon to be England. What you see today in Italy, in 16 days, is us at our current rate, which is consistent in all countries with "social distancing". This is too contagious for that to work well. It will help. But to really beat this, we have to take measures Americans can not and will not take.

Nope, just pointing out - we are better at everything. Including virus transmission.

Well I think the number of people who have it and have died has started the beginning of an exponential function...I personally believe that after everything is all said and done which includes us getting a vaccine...it will actually resemble more of a bell curve...it will rise exponentially and then peak And then start dropping and then when the vaccine comes out it will fall exponentially and then flatten out because it will always be around a little!!! Just one mans opinion though!!!

Whelp clearly you don’t understand what exponential means because almost every country is growing exponentially. US is doubling every 2-3 days.
Please tell us you don’t have a Clemson degree, or at least that you got it in something useless like political science or art history.

Well, since YOU are

Exactly the 'type' I referenced...explain China...South Korea...heck...even here. Do you think I'm literal with 'exponential', you bombastic moron? No! The point is why you and others want to rain fear and doomsday upon the people of this nation and world...and why you, especially, have sat largely in silence these years and are just now gracing T-Net with the virtues of your learned Phd mind. You haven't remotely tried to 'hear' others' perspectives and, furthermore, you wouldn't recognize sarcasm if it dinged your doctorate.
By your learned reasoning, half the world should be infected by now...casket/crematorium business should be raging and the whole world should be pronouncing you 'Right'. That's what you want...maybe you'll get your wish. Perhaps you'll be last man standing. Based on what you've done here the past week or so, you simply aren't someone I'd ever care to cross paths with...and your brain is the last one I'd want to pick. Rating you pathetic is leaving the bar set too high.
I was within a hair-trigger of converting to paid membership here...but YOU are why I decided against for now. It's ok...I'm pretty certain the 'ban hammer' will come my way now...so, the floor will be yours. Enjoy it.

I didn’t realize that there were multiple ways of using the word “exponential”.
Tell me if you think this looks literallyor figuratively exponential to you.
Sorry that you want me to tell you that it’s all going to be ok and that barely anyone is going to get COVID

Because there has been exponential growth in places like Spain and Italy.

(given your 1,000+ posts on the subject) why aren't you consulting with the CDC instead of posting non stop on TigerNet?

Bob, there are several indicators that someone is panicking.
Mar 23, 2020, 10:26 AM
|

The two most common that I've seen as a result of coronavirus are...
1) People who are clearly panicking. 2) People who are telling anyone who will listen how calm they are and that they are not panicking, especially when no one is asking them. That's nervous energy.
Be leery of both.

Do those "graduates and professionals" include the PHD's that couldn't find their way back to their chair after walking across the stage and getting their diploma?

What should be considered is the more diagnostic tests taken the more positive results-this has been invisible in the numbers estimated thus far. Also spring break effects and serving the semester back home will only fan the effects.
