Roadrunner Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 CA has a real Covid fatigue I think. We had an early lockdown in March along with NY. Only we weren’t as hard hit as NY. However, NY at least somewhat enjoyed the summer, but we went from lockdown to surge and just as the numbers were starting to get batter, a surge again. We have barely left our home since March. My kids are starting to have mental health issues. I need to get them out for several days and away from here. This vaccine can’t come soon enough. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, our friends in California are really tired. I would have thought that there are more outdoor activities in CA than in NY nowadays, though? I mean, when it's not shelter in place, it seems like a better place to be in the winter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bootsie Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 13 hours ago, kand said: Sure. I agree with all of this. My point was that people *say* things like “You have a 96% chance of surviving Covid, why are we shutting everything down for a virus that isn’t even dangerous?!“ this is a thing I have heard and read from many, many people, using numbers ranging from 96% to 99%. My point was for them to think that a 1 to 4% chance of dying of this was no big deal shows they don’t have a good handle on what that would mean. eta: because I’m still not sure it’s clear that it’s not me who is saying someone has a 1 to 4% chance of dying, I want to reiterate my point is that there are people saying that this is the chance but still thinking that that’s no big deal. That’s the disconnect. )There certainly are people in demographics where their chance is that high if they do catch it, though.) It’s particularly worrisome in California, given that they have the third lowest hospital beds per capita 🙁. The chance of not dying if you are in a plane crash is only 90-96%. So, if you ARE in a plane crash you are more likely to die than if you DO get COVID. But, the likelihood of being in a plane crash is much lower than the likelihood of contracting COVID. The disconnect is people do not think in terms of conditional probability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t that important of a point though, merely an observation. Hopefully most people understood what I meant. I knew what you meant. For what it's worth, I think that if you act like those people are acting, their chance of contracting COVID this year is probably way over 1/2, so you may as well not do much conditioning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that people's experiences and frames of reference are based upon conditional probabilities. They don't realize that they are comparing death rates with things that have very different conditional probabilities. Working with a lot of young people, 96% chance of survival of COVID sounds very high when they hear that they chance of surviving a plane crash is 96% or less. They mistakenly conclude that COVID is just as risky as flying. They fail to take into consideration that if there is a 50% chance of contracting COVID and a 4% chance of dying--that is a 2% chance of contracting COVID and dying. Whereas if the chance of getting into a plane crash is .001% (I don't know what the statistic actually is--probably much smaller) the chance of dying in a plane crash is only 0.004%. What I am pointing out is not that those individuals who say 96% survival rate--that is pretty good--are correct. I am arguing that they are failing to take into consideration the higher probability of contracting COVID than some of their other activities for which they are comparing similar death/survival rates. I am not arguing that they should greatly reduce their assessment of risk of COVID by conditioning the probability, I am arguing that when they make the comparison to other things that they are failing to condition those events with low occurrence.

Thanks! What it looks like to me is that we've caught up. If you redistribute the last two weeks, the slope would be right around the slope of the weekend increases. Which (to me) suggests that we're still going up, but slowly... but we're going up from the actual average of 1900 or 1950 or so, not from what we are now. So I tentatively expect a decrease tomorrow. But I can't predict things perfectly day by day... next week is definitely the moment of truth, though. We'll see if positivity is still being predictive or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not_a_Number Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 (edited) OK, we've clicked over for the day. There was a mild increase in deaths, although most of it seems to be Iowa's new bookkeeping, which added something like 168 deaths to the total. If you get rid of those, things have stayed almost even from last week, inching up slightly. Taking those out of the equation, the 2-week average (which still seems much more meaningful than any other statistic due to Thanksgiving, unfortunately) is 1879. I'm very curious what happens for the rest of the week. My mild expectation is that the numbers stay relatively stable, like I've said, or perhaps go down to balance out the fact that last week was inflated. But I don't have strong opinions on this.

Not_a_Number Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 (edited) The reason I'm cautiously optimistic is that I think the true graph looks like this, with the true 7-day averages in red: That's very approximately what you get if you rebalance things between the last two weeks. So, I do think it's going up, but it's not going up a ton. And since last week was inflated, staying on this curve would LOOK like going down.

I think considering it a noisy plateau from November 12 to December 3 is the best way to deal with Thanksgiving reporting effects.

And Worldometers doesn’t have a note (they have one for yesterday’s Ohio numbers). It has to be a data dump, though, lol. They don't even have particularly high case numbers recently, and they've never had more than 100 before! I'm kind of annoyed that the week after Thanksgiving is polluted by data dumps by random states. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it must be a dump, but is it a dump that should be spread out over a week or 2 weeks or 2 months...? Someone should let us know!! 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data dumps never are... If you look at their graph of new cases, they were averaging 837 in mid-October and then increased to an average of almost 5k by mid-November, then leveled off around there. So they did have a big surge a few weeks ago. It would make sense if most of those deaths were recent, but definitely not one day’s worth. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're clearly about to have a "over 3000" day, and I'm worried positivity will stop being the right statistic. Just went over 3000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a great day either way. Besides CO, 4 other states posted over 200 deaths (almost 300 for TX). 😞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
