There's competition with originalism on the right. Common-Good Constitutionalism - The Atlantic:
quote: common-good constitutionalismshould be based on the principles that government helps direct persons, associations, and society generally toward the common good, and that strong rule in the interest of attaining the common good is entirely legitimate. Socialism, medicare for all, living minimum wage, free college tuition ... etc. One could see a common goal here between the left and the right. Could be interesting.

Not sure where to find this information but I would be curious to see if the same increase is happening other places like NYC, New Orleans, Wuhan, etc. We know that the number of people infected is under-reported, because not everyone has been tested. We know that there are people that are infected but not showing symptoms, some because the incubation period is ~10 days +/-, and because some may be asymptotic and have antibodies that could be useful. We know that there are people that have died, either directly from the virus or by the virus in combination with pre-existing conditions (weak immune system, already sick, etc), because they were tested positive. Then there are people that have died without being tested, cause unknown. This could be approximated by applying the pre-covid death rate.

Not mentioned is that the wire is used to fit mask over the nose bridge. You could also handsew this mask or sacrifice an old t-shirt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwXAqY5MFNM&fbclid=IwAR0o...

Grafica De Casos Confirmados De CoronaVirus Fuera De China - GifsCool Really shows how much delayed action has endangered the US population: Remember that there is a 2 week incubation period, so this shows a 2 week delay from infection. Watch the US go from the bottom to the top in one month. Watch S.Korea go from the top to off the bottom in the same month. The first in country cases were reported at the same time, S. Korea acted, Trump did not See Italy and Spain surge to high numbers ... scary.

Here's the total infections graph for Czechia showing that the number infected is still increasing, but the rate of increase appears to be slowing. The most recent data point is from April 5: I worry that when the infection numbers level off people will think it'll be safe to resume "normal" life, not realizing that it means people still being infected. This graph is nice, and it is comforting to think we are getting a handle on it, but we also need to be aware of the total numbers of people that are infected, the total number dead, the total number that recovered. We also need to know the percentage of infected in the population and what that means for personal protection measures. Korea never regulated/ordered face mask use, they recommended it and the people willingly followed that recommendations because they trusted that it was in their best interest. Now some sad news
quote: I had been skeptical of reports of pets being immune. This means that they can be carriers. Note to Faith: I had only heard this virus being labeled "coronavirus" until the medical people started using Covid-19. I have now seen increased violent attacks on people of asian descent because of the "china virus" label. Words matter: some Americans are so ignorant that many thought coronavirus was from the beer. At least it couldn't be used to justify racist attacks. Enjoyby our ability to understand RebelAmericanZenDeist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

New news from To help stop coronavirus, everyone should be wearing face masks. The science is clear | Jeremy Howard: There is now no doubt that people are most contagious during the period when they're without symptoms or have minimal symptoms. Or put a bag over your head (with cutouts to see) ... recommended for people in denial about using a mask.
If I haven't mentioned footwear before I should have. Large droplets do sink quickly to the floor, like in grocery stores and such. This means that after a visit to the grocery store your footwear could be a veritable nation of virus. When you get home set the shoes aside somewhere outside (the garage, under an awning, a rarely used spare room, but not in living spaces) for three days before wearing again. Alternatively, if you have it, spray them with isopropyl alcohol and rub it in. It they're washable, like flip-flops, wash them. We've converted our back porch into an "airlock" so we can hang coats and change shoes, leaving the masks and gloves ... and try to limit outings so that they can have the time to kill the virus. For gloves, I would think that getting a pair of kitchen gloves, and when you get home wash them in the same way recommended for hand washing. I have rubber boots that can be washed. Also a tip from a specialist: drink warm drinks to help flush any virus you've inhaled down into your stomach where the acids kill it. A cuppa after your shower when you get home from shopping is nice.

Here's a map of infection cases across the US: The novel coronavirus continued its march across rural America over the weekend. By Sunday night, April 5, two-thirds of rural counties had at least one case. Just over 200 rural counties have reported a death attributable to COVID-19.
quote: That means that 2/3rds of rural counties/county equivalents have at least one known case.

I'm having trouble with this:
The Daily Mail has an article saying 2 million would hff have to die to reach herd immunity. Wouldn't that be the same as an uninfected population that was originally 2 million fewer people? How does dying help anyone (unless it's Trumpy)? What you need are people with immunity, the more you have the less likely the person you meet is a carrier. Yes?

Anyone want to place a bet on when the US deaths/million pop will pass Spain's? I’ll jump in here and say mid-May ... because of all the stupid reopenings going on right now.
... (Corona) deaths/million pop ... This a better metric than just (Corona) deaths, especially for comparing countries .. and states. Gives one a better grasp on the threat. This BS about opening (haircut for Xsake) and needing to work to pay bills is simple to remedy
Who knows, people might find that this works better than all the socialist programs. Combined.
