What a fine role model! I have so much respect for her and how she presents everything to us, as well as how direct she is at answering ALL questions without dodging or throwing out rhetoric. She's brilliant. I really recommend everyone listen to her because she is giving us the straight goods. 1 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't afford weaknesses in our firewall...it's why we have to keep going with this. It's not yet time to let the guard down because it will undo all we've done. So many good analogies out there: not finishing antibiotics because "you feel better". The rate of descent has slowed, cut the parachute off. Also...Dr. Bonnie got teary and emotional at the end while addressing her friends in NS. She's a wonderful human being. I wonder if this uptick is a result of people ignoring social distancing guidelines for Easter? I guess we'll know the full result in another week or so? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he feels he can predict anything when health experts and scientists don't is true testament to his enormous ego. He knows everything. It's a very scary thing to have someone steering the ship around icebergs at full throttle. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we need is a good dose of rainy days to keep people isolated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skategal Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Could the uptick be in part due to the change in testing? I think we're now testing people who want a test as long as they are referred by a doctor? I thought we changed that recently from just testing more specifically? Could be a combination of all things I suppose. I go more by the hospitalization numbers to feel better/worse about how things are going as that number is a consistent measure. So far that number seems to be declining. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we'll know the full result in another week or so? Uptick will also have to do with them allowing anyone to get tested now. Before it was very specific individuals who could and couldn't get tested. You essentially had to have a lot of trouble breathing for the hospital to test you, if not they sent you away. On Monday they opened up the testing so that more of the public could get tested now if needed and with that more open testing you will have more people trying to get tested and the numbers will rise. The big thing will be hospitalizations and ICUs, as long as they stay down and at levels that hospitals can manage effectively then we are doing well. The big vast number of cases is almost an irrelevant number as long as most don't get critically ill and end up at the hospitals. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
