of course these maps never show how many tests are conducted so it's just a panic map.

Here are the numbers:

In the US, they've tested ~100,000 people

about 12% of the people tested have tested positive. Predominately, the people tested are presenting with symptoms. So that's 12% of the people presenting with issues or symptoms test positive.

Of those 12%, about 1% are dying from Chinese Virus.

They're testing many more people each day, so the raw numbers will go up. Hearing "20 more people have tested positive..." doesn't mean what it did yesterday when they test twice as many people today!

Well, actually...

If you scroll down slightly past the map, it gives you exact numbers:


Negative tests (Public Health Laboratory only) 833
Positive tests 81

Flagged as Russian propaganda with DHS


Mar 19, 2020, 7:37 PM [ in reply to Re: COVID-19 Map for SC ]

The real number of infected people in the US is still going up and will continue for a while. It's not going up because we are testing more people, it's going up because that's what infectious disease does without mitigation. Testing more people just gives you a more accurate picture.

Mitigation only started a few days ago and still isn't in effect in a handful of states. There's a 5-11 day lag between exposure and symptoms or a positive test, so we won't see the effects of mitigation immediately. The president didn't take it seriously until a few days ago (there's an audio and video record, as much as he tries to lie about it).

reading comprehension much?

“poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”


Better when the things written are intelligible


Mar 19, 2020, 7:54 PM

but when it's a regurgitation of the Russian propaganda meant to minimize the virus threat, I have to speak out. That propaganda had all of Fox News (minus the guy with the red wig) and Trump in thrall until Mike Pence took over.

Why is Kershaw so high?


Mar 19, 2020, 5:48 PM

compared to other SC counties?

Is there a nursing home or assisted living facility there with a high volume of elderly infected with the CoronaVirus?

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


Re: Why is Kershaw so high?


Mar 19, 2020, 6:03 PM

friend in camden said it was a couple that returned from Italy started it there

It probably just had a head start. Others will catch up, particularly

the more densely populated areas.

But just think about this. When they started shutting down college sports, there was some on here that said it was just a scare tactic by the government bc it was election year, Just WOW. That is what you call being really pisssed about not having their sports to pass their time by, and they want sports to continue on at any cost!!!

look up the numbers for H1N1. 13,000 people died in 6 months. Do you remember what we had to do through that 'crisis'?

Much, much different situation


Mar 19, 2020, 7:58 PM

Many older people were resistant to the H1N1 in 2009, while young people were the most at risk. Almost nobody had antibodies effective against SARS-Cov-2 before now.

9,800 people have now died in 2.5 months. Want to wager on that number 4.5 months from now compared to your 13,000. I'll take the over.

13k was for the US alone


Mar 19, 2020, 8:14 PM

Worldwide was a lot more. Big difference is we had effective antiviral treatments like Tamiflu and knew how to make flu vaccines.
