This has been explained by the author of the charts. The Y axis is log scale. It is meant to measure the trajectories of the spread. The size of the population doesn't matter, as it is a constant in the logarithm. If you measure how fast a forrest fire spreads, the size of the forrest doesn't change the trajectory much. It is how you fight the fire and the weather condition makes the difference.


I was told by a credible authority if you just rake the forest floors you won't have more fires. Maybe we can rake the virus? I don't know it's just a thought.


You rake the virus by getting people to stay home and self isolate. When new yorkers flee, little fires start popping up everywhere they go.

Huh?


People leaving NY.


Yes. New Yorkers are spreading the virus.


Florida failed to close down during spring break. That was FAR more impactful than anything associated with NY.



Time will tell.

New York should have put restrictions in place sooner

Florida should have nixed spring break.

Louisiana should have cancelled Mardi gras


But that's too late now. Focus needs to shift to preventing disease crossing state lines.

To be truly effective these lockdowns need to be far more aggressive.

I doubt it will be effective, practical, or even Consitutional to prohibit people from crossing state lines. Are you going to block every little road between New York and Pennsylvania? And what about the doctors who live in New Jersey but work in New York?

They’re predicted as the next location for the next “hot spot” surge. Its very sad.


With their elderly population, they will have a very high death rate compared to most other states. Even if they prevent entry into some communities for the elderly, there will be delivery drivers, mail carriers, etc.

Not minimizing COVID19 - at all. Terrified of it and concerned about the latest death tolls/infection rate. I’m social distancing and following all the protocols, etc. In other words, please don’t flame me. Simply curious.


The problem is that we just don’t know what with the Trump administration actively suppressing tests since January. There is no way the current Covid death toll is remotely accurate. I hope doctors are saving blood samples.


It is my understanding medical professionals report directly to the CDC as well as their state's health department. Do you think both organizations are not reporting correctly or are corrupt?

We are only reporting cases confirmed by testing. But we don't have enough tests, so if you die without a test, you aren't reported. China was faced with the same problem at one point. They changed their protocol to allow reporting based on clinical signs. We don't allow that.

Me too. Not to be morbid, but I’m also concerned with how the deceased are handled as the body counts increase. What agencies are coordinating standards that states will need guidance on?. There are so many areas needing public service expertise that the reduced Trump admin is simply unaware of because they removed anyone that gave a voice of dissenting opinion as a mission to undermine the presidency.
