We've Flatten The Curve. It's Time For Texas To Move On.

You obviously haven’t been keeping up with charter fishing in Galveston. Those self employed guides are having a tuff time.

The estimated loss for G-town tourism is 1.2 billion and unemployment growing.

I don’t find your half ass humor one bit funny.

Flattening the curve doesn't mean absence of a curve.

Exactly! And it's hardly an "exponential" rise. 200 people in Texas have died from it in the two weeks since I started this thread and another 2 weeks since Turner shut down the rodeo.

Time to get back to work. The number of people who have lost their jobs has risen "exponentially". We don't have to open everything back up at once.

Again, "number of cases" is a near meaningless stat given people can be asymptomatic, test accuracy and test availability. Also, given that most people who recover have no permanent damage, deaths are the only meaningful stat and that also may be adulterated.

I'd like a look back at the number of people who died in Texas during March and April and compare it to years past.

Seriously, are they prevented from working? I would have thought with ball games, theaters, parks, etc closed, their business would be booming. Take a day off "working from home" and go fish. Charter boat fishing I can see closed.

I'll have to check into it.

j666 is definitively not sharing his personal government check with the afflicted persons he presents. Usual DPST hypocrisy!
A sense of humor is a characteristic of higher intelligence - not seen in the DPST Fascist ranks.

B All means - go fishin' - and count on Trump to bail u out when j666 takes the long walk off a short pier!
Get some professional help - j666 - U need IT!

That graph shows exponential increase in Texas. Which is what I have been telling you all along.

What the fuck are you talking about? Can you see the redline curve in the lower right corner? Or are you blind? It is the epitome of an exponential rise.

And the number of cases and the number of deaths go hand-in-hand. So, of course, the number of cases is relevant. You dismiss it because the facts don't fit your idiotic theory that the disease is no big deal. And the graph is the number of confirmed cases - whether asymptomatic or not. And test availability means the true number is even higher. Even the asymptomatic cases can spread the disease.

Texas is at nearly a 2% fatality rate. Texas has 28M people. If 20% (5.6M) get infected and 2% of those 5.6M people die, then Texas will have 112,000 deaths by itself. And if the hospital system gets swamped, then the death rate will be even higher than 2%.

it could be that you need to be a subscriber to see it or you need 3 reviews to see the sig line.


your last review was in 2017....


so... do some more reviews or just pay up like i did.

Yes, that would be a good comparison.

We need to put people back to work.

ExNYer - exponential depends on the items and scale on the X and Y axis.

The number of new cases each day is not growing exponentially - it is not much different than the day before, and it actually went down.

(9353-8262) day before yesterday = 1091 cases
(10,230-9353) yesterday = 877 cases

Anyway, some rural counties have virtually no cases - they should at least be allowed to decide for themselves not to commit economic destruction.

Perhaps I didn't explain it properly so I apologize. In my mind I was thinking of the number of new cases each day, and to me exponential increases are typically shown on a logarithmic scale.

Gnadfly's larger point is we do not have a NYC style disaster.

Whether I was right or wrong with my terms and description, Yssup Rider is still a faggot. That is a certainty.

It doesn’t. Just yous trying to spin the facts into your own racists narrative, Jewish Lawclerk.

They are racist motherfuckers by virtue of the fact blacks and Hispanics are dying at a higher rate in their filthy fucking city.

Plus, de Blasio is a fucking asshole, so it is fun to call him a racist, even if he did marry an ugly black lady.

If that happened to Mayor Rudy (i.e. any racial disparity) when he was kicking ass you fuckers would have skewered him.

First, you never look at ONE day's results. That can vary according to how many people decided to go to the hospital that day and how many tests were conducted. You plot the curve over time and you look at CUMULATIVE cases, not the number for one day.

And NO, it doesn't depend on the "items and scale" whatever that means. A curve is exponential if it is rising as X^N, (X to the Nth power) where N is greater than one. If N=1, then it is linear (or a straight slope). If N is less than 1, it is a decaying exponential.

The X and Y axes are both linear, not logarithmic - scale is not a factor. So, the increasingly steep curve (i.e., increasing slope, not a straight slope) means you have an exponential rise.

STOP MAKING SHIT UP TO TRY TO SAVE FACE. You are only digging a deeper hole of stupidity.

You aren't even an engineer or a mathematician, by your own admission, so stop trying to splain figurin' to me.

You can put anything you want on the x and y axis.

When it is new cases on Y, and days on X, and it is roughly the same each day, over a 5 or 6 day period, that ain't exponential. That's what I'm talking about, ExNYer.

If at first it is 50 per day, and 6 days later, it is 500 per day, that portion of the curve for that graph is exponential over the time frame, like NYC.

Texas ain't got that!

Believe Trump mentioned that and Dr Birx confirmed it. She also tossed out this tidbit yesterday.
I see a lot of men in the audience today, I just want to remind them about the importance of health care. Of the male-female ratio, 56 percent of the people who are tested are female, 16 percent positive. 44 percent male, 23 percent positive.


I'm not sure what to make of it, but maybe the moral of the story there is that the wifey should be the one to go out in public to pick up hubby's beer and some groceries - for the common good of the team. Besides, math is math. I could be wrong, but that's what I heard.
