Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

Our hospitals are all overwhelmed in my state. We feel trapped. We went from having control to spiraling out . The cold is not going to make things better. (I'm in Michigan)

The chickens do though .

 

[bruceha2000]

Yeah, Michigan has held the top spot for a while now.

I'm a tad off topic but I froze my warts off

I tried Compound W on one, it worked SLOWLY and you have to peel off the dead stuff and reapply. And sometimes you lose some skin. Sucker came right back. Then I did the same thing with castor oil. Worked slowly, no peeling, no losing skin ... wart gone for good.

Lemmington, 31-40%

Grabbed that one just to see. 100 total residents. 1 case would run them to the top of the list

Halloween, large gatherings .... Two, three weeks later, big surges in numbers of cases.

Thanksgiving coming up ... Hmmm. Wonder what might happen after millions of people traveling, gathering, parading in huge crowds, football games? I don't have a crystal ball but I can guess.

...... started when school started.

 

[bruceha2000]

Yeah we have a lot in the schools, apparently the kids bring it to school rather than "sharing" at school.

Now "grab" all the other ones.

That’s a home remedy for you.

Yes, it would.

I know nothing about any town in VT except the name of the capital city. It is too hard to do many on my phone so I picked the first handful I saw. It is easier on the computer so here are all the towns in the lowest category (1 or less cases per 10,000) except the suppressed towns (because I found out the ones in this category have 0-25 residents).
Green print are towns with up to 40% of the residents vaccinated.
Red print are towns with 60% or more of the residents vaccinated.
Number after the percentage is the 2019 population.
Then the number of (officially recognized) cases between March 2020 and Nov 2021... with an unknown number before vaccinations were available.

Dividing the total population by the total cases gives a percentage... which might show something but not much unless you know how many cases each town had before the vaccine came out. I don't see a way to tell that.

Georgia is such an outlier, I wonder if there is a mistake there.

Georgia is such an outlier, I wonder if there is a mistake there.

I would think so.

The thing I found about low % rates on a map is "Caution! The vaccination rate in Georgia may be lower than the actual rate due to address uncertainty."

I find it really hard to believe Georgia, or any town for that matter, is anywhere near that low. All the towns around it are 80% or higher and I don't think there are big demographic disparities.

It would be useful if the state provided the information "pre and post" vaccine availability. Or generally, March 2020 through April 2021 and sine May 2021. By the end of April I think anyone 18 or older had access to the vaccine.

I find this with all data lists.
