If one is fortunate enough to have sufficient space in one's home to dedicate a room specifically for office use, spend time in there during work hours only.
Is the virus not allowed to be mentioned/discussed on the board?
- Thread starter Cocky4SC
- Start date
Please elaborate on the differences between curve-flattening and preventing the virus from spreading. I'm interested.
By all-clear, I mean that the CDC no longer recommends social distancing, mask-wearing, etc.
And unlike far too many out there, I don't worry. I practice measured, reasonable social distancing and wear a mask when the building / event requires me to.
My hope is that mods dislike is (merely) the political trash talk. Lord knows, we've had our share on here, and it appears to be slowing down.
Love a vigorous debate in which both sides respect each other.

Back of the envelope calculation based on DHEC data, not accounting for the exponential increase in case numbers, ICU bed usage rose linearly early from around 55% on April 20th to around 75% on June 20th.
That's an increase of about 10% per month, with no additional supply coming online
I gave you facts, the same fact reported in the news...
832 in the hospital for COVID 19 in SC... Sound big, until you see how many beds are in SC...
People who are tested positive, some panic and end up going to the hospital...
Just take two shots of fighting cock bourbon and you'll be cured...

Your "facts" are half-stories bro.
The percentage of covid utilized total ICU beds is rising by roughly 10%/month.
10%/month increase is small, right? It fits with your narrative
The numbers are rising considerably among the 20-44 yr age group, which are mostly low risk infections and not having a big effect on hospitalizations. The bigger concern is this will spread into the higher risk groups and really set things off.
Not to mention, slowing down any "opening" up.

You forget that we are doing more testing now than 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months ago...
If the death rates go up, then we have something to worry about... Right now, the death rate is 0.02%, and most of them are the elderly and people with respiratory issues...
The more we test, the more we are finding out that we all have some form or COVID 19 and it hasn't killed us...
The shut down and take shelter did us no go, but helped the healthcare system from overloading... That what Anthony Fauci when he was fessing up lies he told in the beginning...
Keeping people shut in keep people from getting the virus, the virus was still out there looking for a host...
Again as of today, death rate is 0.02%... End of story...
Btw the 10%/month increase in ICU bed occupation doesn't appear at alarming at first glance, but given a current occupancy of 75%, September looms large
Your missing what happens when places have to re-close due to infections and what happens to hospitals when they have to cancel elective surgeries.
As long as infection rates are rising, there is no recovery.
"If we didn't wanna test, or if we didn't test, we wouldn't have cases. But we have cases because we test."
There you go, discussion over. We are truly living in bazarro world. Everybody sleep well, try not to think about nuclear codes and stuff like that. Everything is under control.
