March 23, 2020 at 20:57
Herd immunity is one way to approach it. But only if the spread is manageable, i.e. less than 1:1. Then, yes, we potentially get better overall immuni...

I'm just going to keep repeating this point on the "mild cases" issue that is sometimes used to downplay the danger of Covid. "80% of cases are mild-m...

Take your BS to the Trump thread like I said.
March 23, 2020 at 20:38
You accuse everyone here who criticizes Trump of having TDS. That's not nuance. That's slavish devotion. If you think you are being nuanced, God help ...

Maybe we should just talk about coronavirus and leave the orangeutan/saviour of the world (take your choice) out of it for a while.
March 23, 2020 at 20:00
Well, according to Matt Groening you're wrong and Trump really is a dick. I dunno. Who to believe??

Good point. 97% accuracy isn't great.

There's a lag in the data. The same site says zero new cases in Ireland today but 126 have been reported. And mild is probably the default before case...

Being killed by the lethal side-effects of a drug untested in a particular infection context is not like losing a dollar.
