2 new cases in Hattiesburg
There are a ton of people who don't need a test clamoring to get one. Just like the idiots clearing toilet paper and canned goods off the shelf.......have fun eating all that Chicken of the Sea for the next 3 years.....LOL.....Anyone who meets basic criteria are getting tested and most of those come back negative. I'm all for testing anyone and everyone as soon as we can get ramped up to do it and keeping everyone at home for the next few weeks. The sooner we can contain this the better.
AL finally welcomed its first case
For every 100 people that want to get tested, i'd wager at least 1 is infected at this point. Being conservative and saying there's only 1% of the country that is clamoring for being tested themselves, let's do some quick maths.
300,000,000 * 1% * 1% = 30,000
That's just being super conservative. This shit has hit New York man. Even if it only has .1% of the NY metro... that's 20,000. You're woefully underestimating this.
You keep missing the fact that we can't / aren't testing everyone that should and could be tested. There's 95 confirmed cases. How many more are unable to be tested? That's the key ingredient you are missing. You're trusting that we have the capability to test everyone that has it right now. We don't. We've admitted we don't. It will be at best two weeks before we can.
You can never completely rule out something like that though, depending on how far panic spreads to other financial markets. Doesn’t matter if it makes sense or not, panics throw rationality out the window. What most people don’t realize is how totally effed up financial markets have been for the last twelve years, so it’s not impossible those markets could start to implode and spread panic everywhere. I don’t see that happening, but man, have you seen what’s happening to bank stock prices the last few days?
More fear mongering from a panic person. Congrats.
