And I think forest fires that impacted air quality in populated areas also drove people indoors.Love you bro!

Unfortunately, Kentucky is off the rails. Louisville leads COVID deaths over the rest of the state 5:1. The infections are around a 1000/day. We are a serious Red State, and have pretty much followed the protocols of the president and not of the medical experts. So many have surrendered to the inevitability, and have just quit trying, which has lead to a very dire and sad situation here."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

In the beginning the plan was to lower the peak and spread out the infection (opposite of 6-Sigma goal of squish and scoot). That would enable hospitals to keep from being overwhelmed.
Goal was not to eliminate infections, because they said that was impossible. They said eventually a very significant portion of people would get it. Has that philosophy changed?
Yes, I wear masks, avoid large groups while indoors, limit my "friend" group. One of my risk areas is Rodeos, but we are outside and usually well over the 6' seperation recommendation.

the dakotas look to be on track to be 100 percent infected in the next several months looking at the maps

but its the rate that shows the higher chance to get the thing. is it a mask thing, cold weather, the way the community works together, lack of healthcare available nearby. its not the biggest state for travel other than my dog is from therefukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it -

But you need to get people to buy into this philosophy for it to work. I think pandemic fatigue is part of what we're seeing now.

But, the "rate per 100K" is somewhat of a misnomer. They're actually reporting the cases per 100K. It doesn't outright define the risk of getting infected, but states the prevalence of the disease i.e. how many are infected at a particular time. Less populated areas/states can look skewed because of the smaller denominator.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

The amount of asymptomatic cases popping up worries me. You can take all the temps and ask all the questions you want. If you are not showing symptoms none of that will help.

Utard's governor refused a mask mandate until this week. And his reason? "We have to nip this thing in the bud before ski season starts".
Think about that. Skiers from everywhere in the country/world, barreling down a mountain, then crowding shoulder-to-shoulder 8 to 20 people at a time into an enclosed gondola for the 15-minute ride to the top, panting on each other.
The.
Man.
Is.
Criminally.
Stupid.

When I was 18 I would lose my mind if I couldn't go to "the party" where my friends were at.Would not be surprised if there were more socks in the septic clogs during this pandemic.

Leadership at Notre Dame-give this a look: (Dateline Oct 13th)
INDIANAPOLIS -- The Rev. John Jenkins, the president of the University of Notre Dame, has ended his quarantine after testing positive for the coronavirus less than a week following his attendance at a White House event without wearing a mask.
Jenkins "is symptom-free and looks forward to resuming his normal activities,” the university announced Monday evening. He began his self-isolation period Sept. 28, two days after he attended the Rose Garden ceremony for Amy Coney Barrett, a judge and Notre Dame law professor who is President Donald Trump's nominee for U.S. Supreme Court justice.

The problem we are seeing is we are out of space. The hospital isn’t full; however, we have no more negative pressure rooms or icu beds.
that’s what I’m seeing/ hearing from work. I’m currently on a 2 week mandatory staycation... thankfully not sick, just an exposureXL BGE, KJ classic, Joe Jr, UDS x2 -

Turns out that although the state went to Trump by a 62-38% margin, the majority of the state thinks the Democratic Governor is doing a good job with addressing covid. Article linked here:

It has been that way since this started in March. Despite the red state branding the Governor has definitely been more aggressive than anything from DC. He definitely hit a nerve early in this when he was hung in effigy outside the capitol. FWIW-Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer!

Kid's school just emailed that all students must return to maximum of 50% in person starting Monday.
