Participant[quote=Coronita]I would be undocumented….I didn’t bring any ID prior to picking up a check.[/quote]
I didn’t even think of that. Wow. How do you document that you are undocumented ?
Cali: What is your name:
Me: Vladmir Wang Rodriguez
Cali: Hm. We have no record of you. Here is your $500.Maybe Barnaby should ask for Mortgage Forbearance and this!
Participant[quote=spdrun]On the plus side, 15% of pregnant women coming to the maternity ward in one NYC hospital were COVID positive for active infection. They didn’t test for antibodies/previous infection, so the true figure for infections is likely higher than 15%, assuming pregnant women represent a population sample.
Of that 15%, only about 1 out of 15 had overt symptoms. This is more evidence that this thing isn’t particularly horrible for most people — it’s super-contagious rather than being very lethal. Best case scenario, 50% or more of NYC has already been exposed, and we’re looking at a much smaller death rate than previously predicted. 10000 / 4 million means an 0.25% death rate, not 3% as some models predicted. 50% immune in a population will also slow the growth of new cases dramatically, since 50% of people are no longer viable viral hosts.
The delirium thing seems like a general consequence of being on a vent and sedated for a long time, not of some form of viral encephalitis, but who knows?[/quote]
Ya, that’s pretty interesting.
Seems like a nice random sample of 1000 people in San Diego County could tell us alot.
This doesn’t say how many there are, but these are available in SD now.

Cali paying cash to illegal immigrants. #816492Participant[quote=spdrun]So instead of spending half a trillion a year murdering people in countries not worth our time, we’d be spending money on healthcare, education, infrastructure, and other nice things? if that’s socialism, count me in.[/quote]
Being opposed to one of those two does not imply support for the other.
April 15, 2020 at 8:54 PM in reply to: Are you f-ing kidding me ? Cali paying cash to illegal immigrants. #816489Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]Makes perfect sense to me. $500 is just a small tiny token of our appreciation for all the work that they do.
Btw, 40% is coming from private donations.[/quote]The appreciation they get for the work they do is THE MONEY PEOPLE PAY THEM FOR THE WORK THEY DO.
I take no issue with the 40%. It’s the $75 million in taxpayer money that is beyond offensive. As bad as anything Trump has done, well – except for claiming Absolute Power.
ParticipantHow about in cities where less than 1 in a million school-aged people have died, we send them back to school.
The latest – in San Diego county, 2 people under the age of 50 have died. Zero under 20. Zero. None.
ParticipantI meant I hope he lets things open county-by-county cuz I don’t want to wait around for all the other counties to get their act together.
Participant[quote=outtamojo]Gavin’s got a plan https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/California-s-coronavirus-reopening-Gov-Gavin-15200205.php%5B/quote%5D
I hope he lets the Mayors decide cuz I don’t want to wait around for all the other counties to get their act together.
ParticipantUS “New Cases” numbers starting to look better. Total cases looking linear now, not exponential.
Daily deaths, too – although it seems a bit choppy. Hard to pull a trend out of it.
Will probably overtake influenza deaths for this season in a couple of days.
Participant[quote=svelte]But he still has to make a recommendation[/quote]
I hope he recommends we get all the kids back in school and keep the old folks on quarantine. It is time – in San Diego, anyway.
If he is smart, he would publish numbers that can be used by state and local governments to decide when to lift each measure. Take himself out of the loop, since it is kind of a no-win situation.
Actually, he will do what he wants and claim the results are awesome, no matter what happens.
Dems will whine and Reps will cheer.
Participant[quote=svelte]The Democrats could never have cooked up something this evil. I bow to Mother Nature’s cunning brilliance![/quote]
So much more effective than the impeachment “plan”.
ParticipantOK, Piggs, help me understand this one.
[quote=http://www.kpbs.org/news/2020/apr/12/coronavirus-san-diego-live-updates-covid-19/]
Officials said Saturday that the number of cases in San Diego had not yet “peaked” in the county”
[/quote]But, here we see the graph of new cases in San Diego.
https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/content/dam/sdc/hhsa/programs/phs/Epidemiology/COVID-19%20Bar%20Graph%20of%20New%20and%20Total%20Cases.pdfDown to 43 as of Saturday, and the 3-day average of about 52.
That is less than the 54 new cases 20 days prior.
In the last 20 days, the only time we had fewer new cases than 46 was 31 – 14 days prior to Saturday.Seems like from here on out we should be getting more recoveries than new cases.
How can we not have peaked ?
Is recovery time > 3 weeks ?
Anyone ? Anyone?Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]Some sects are tough to escape[/quote]
Did you watch Leah Remini’s Scientology show ?
That was pretty infuriating to me. Worth watching.Participant[quote=sdduuuude][quote=teaboy][quote=sdduuuude]Pretty much all sports injuries are best treated with RICE = Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.[/quote]
Yeah, but based on what clinical results was this adopted?

I think it is empirical. Twist both ankles: heat one, ice the other. See which heals first. My money on ice.[/quote]
Maybe you are onto something.
