Trippy72394Hi, I'm looking for annual stats on deaths of any kind in different US states in order to see if this is higher than usual even considering "reported" deaths by covid. Does anyone know a good site for US death stats?02:01
Trippy72394Monthly stats would be better02:01

Fatality can be broadly expected to lie between 0.3% (assuming deaths/cases with ⅔ undetected), and less than 5.4% (considering only deaths and recoveries). See https://offloop.net/covid19/?default=Russia for time series data.07:06
Julius5Why do peope still talk about cases? That's so stupid07:06
kunikosJulius5: yes in getting to the bottom of this. is it a real threat or not?!?! idk?!?! info keeps getting thrown left and right. no way to find truth in all of this mess.07:06
Julius5kunikos, is the flu a real threat? Of course. Is it special? Of course not07:07
Julius5SARS-CoV-2 is just special because it's an almost worldwide mass panic07:08
kunikosJulius5: this i understand. while i understand that the threat of the virus is only a %0.3 death rate right?07:08
Julius5What is "death rate" ?07:08
Julius5Mortality, Lethality, deaths per 100'000, what?07:09
Julius5See, that's one of the problems about people and the media. They do not really know what they're talking about07:09
kunikosJulius5: but i also understand that it is of 20% of those who get the virus are hopitalized. than reports of %24 percent of those need a resp. that rate to my understanding unsustainable to the hospitals providing treatment07:09
Julius5kunikos, over 20% sounds like BS07:10
kunikosJulius5: it's not that the virus is a threat. the threat is so many people going to the hospital at the same time. can not be serviced at the same time.07:10
kunikosJulius5: it's not my numbers07:10
Julius5An example: In California it tuned out that about 25 (don't recall the exact number) times more people are infected than thought. So the rates of who die and who gets hospitalized drop by a factor of 25. No one actually knows the number of infected, that's the point. "Cases" are useless07:11
Trippy72394Okay kunikos and LjL I did look at the CDC download pdf called nvsr68_09-508.pdf linked at the CDC page as Deaths: Final Data for 2017, table B07:13
Julius5Actually most hospitals are empty. It's more of bad logistics getting the people there07:13
kunikosJulius5: from what i understand it's a good thing that they are empty because they were just getting prepared. but the fact that we increased the number of beds coinsiding with our efforts to medigate i believe we reduced now what we thought we needed.07:14
kunikosJulius5: but now arguments lay heavily now on whether we should proceed as business as normal and fill these beds up? and undo all of our medigative efforts? idk. this is where i can't decide.07:15
Julius5They are empty because except for some hotspots Corona is not really a big thing07:15
Trippy72394That has an annual state by state breakdown.  I guess divide the figures by 12 and you get an average per month and that can be compared to any monthly stats coming from individual states' websites07:16
kunikosJulius5: this is where i can't argue for or against you. the media drowns out all of the facts.07:16
kunikosJulius5: so it's sooooooo sooo hard for me to pick. all i know is that i'm focusing on protecting myself and my family.07:16
kunikosTrippy72394: so what where the average numbers? this was for 2017?07:17
Julius5Protecting from what?07:17
Trippy72394kunikos average for which state?07:18
Trippy72394I think what needs to be done first is to find a state webiste that publishes total monthly deaths.07:19
kunikosTrippy72394: well for california i guess. and idk if you have the national average too i guess i would be curious.07:19
kunikosTrippy72394: dude someone has got to get on these polititions about getting these statistics out there.07:19
Trippy72394Without having monthly state deaths, there is nothing to compare the 2017 deaths to07:19
Julius5There probably is no real difference in the numbers from the last years07:19
Trippy72394I agree07:19
ecksjust look at the excess deaths in europe07:20
Julius5I don't see more deaths than usual07:20
eckshttps://euromomo.eu/uploads/images/graph-2020-18.jpg07:20
Trippy72394So if we can just find a single state that publishes Feb or Mar or April total deaths, and we already know reported covid deaths, and we have 2017 deaths, then the tale will be told07:20
ryoumafor the reported ones07:21
Julius5ecks, your graph shows the numbers of deaths didn't change much07:21
kunikoswhat ecks posted there shows almost double the rate there Julius5 .... this is why i can't pick...07:21

ecksoh but i do07:22

ecksno u07:22
Julius5You look at the hight of the peaks, and that's useless07:23

eckswho says I do?07:23
ecksi know you have to integrate under the curve07:23
kunikosecks: i didn't mean double i just rounded. up i guess you could argue nearly 60% 70% but c'mon..07:23
Julius5Because you claim 2020 is worse, when actually your graph shows 2018 being the worst07:23
ecksof course you have to wait for the final numbers, but it's clear there will be a peak07:23
eckseven with these huge lockdowns07:23
Julius5The lockdowns are quite useless anyway07:24
Julius5There is a peak each year, so what?07:24
Julius5People just needed to compare numbers to see how dangerous or not Corona is. Too hard for many07:25
kunikosJulius5: we also don't know the numbers because of lack of testing. so there is that as well.07:26
Julius5kunikos, you know the number of deaths, which is probably too high anyway. And even this high number seems to be quite decent07:27
Mr_Pinklol what07:27
Mr_Pinkthis channel brings about some real idiots from time to time07:27
Julius5You could also know the deaths by age, which probably shows mostly old people die. But this numbers are hard to find for some countries. On purpuse?07:28

ecksold people are expendable anyway!07:29
Julius5I know it's a conspiracy, it's obvious. Conspiracy, idiocracy or mass panic07:29
kunikosJulius5: I honestly don't know if what i "know" is true or not it's always changing. but i mean if you're seeing something different please share. i would love nothing more than for good news to be thrown my way.07:29
Julius5ecks, no one said that. But why would I be afraid when old people die from Corona instead from the flu? How does it matter07:30
eckseven if you don't believe in excess mortality, are the ICU numbers also fake? are ICUs not stretched to the brim right now? 07:30
Julius5kunikos, that's good. Most people are too sure about what they "know", like Mr_Pink for example07:30
Julius5kunikos, why do you need good news. What's bad at the moment?07:31
Mr_Pinklmao yes because denying everything is skepticism not just gullibility07:31

Julius5kunikos, just don't let them be ventelated and everything will be good07:34
Mr_Pinkgod cant even spell it right or use the proper vernacular07:34
Mr_Pinkintubated. the word you're looking for is intubated07:35
Julius5Venilated is the right word, not intubated. Thanks07:36
Mr_Pinkvenilated? lmao07:36
Mr_Pinkagain. no07:36
Mr_Pinkyou missed a t, and thats not the proper term lmao07:36
kunikosguys lol this is semantics. i can barely spell myself. the key problem here is the virus, the information, and our leadership...07:37
Julius5kunikos, why do you worry because your relatives are in a Corona risk ground, and then the flu kills more people than Corona, and those are basically the same risk groups, and you never worried about that?07:37
kunikosthis is what media wants. devide. 07:37
Mr_Pinkthe flu does not kill more people than the fucking 'rona what the fuck lmao07:38
ecksit's not like the ICUs are intubating people for fun07:38
Mr_Pinkthe flu took like 6 months to kill 35,000 ppl07:38
Julius5Yes, I misspelled ventilated, correct07:38
BrainstormUpdates for Hungary: +50 cases (now 3263), +8 deaths (now 413) since a day ago — World: +84 cases (now 4.1 million), +8 deaths (now 280559) since 21 minutes ago — Bulgaria: +34 cases (now 1955) since 14 hours ago07:38
Mr_Pinkthe rona has done double that in half the time stop being a fuckin pleb07:38
ecksyes, it's not a perfect solution and many don't survive it, but there are really no alternatives when the patient decompensates fast07:38
Mr_Pink"ohhh but the numbers are inflated"07:38
Mr_Pinkgod go ventilate yourself like the end of fight club07:38
kunikosJulius5: seriously if you could show me what your seeing that i'm not. i would seriously seriously read it. i'm all about just finding the truth. fuck dems. fuck republicans. i just care about my family, friends, and comunity.07:39
Julius5ecks, wrong07:39
ecksso what do you do when a patient is saturating 60% at 60 L/min optiflow?07:39
ecksgive them a tylenol?07:39
Mr_PinkJulius5 if the lockdowns are useless and the rona is fake will u please go visit a meat factory then your grandparents07:39
Mr_Pinkmake sure to hug them tight07:40
Mr_Pinkreally get those particles all over em07:40
kunikosguys. lets not make fun. really. lets let it be about the truth. if Julius5  has some info that can "debunk" the episode. why not let him share?07:40
Mr_Pinkecks you are wayyyy above his pay grade now lmao07:40
Mr_Pinkinb4 he says "put them on their stomach!"07:40
Mr_Pink"give them hydrochloroquine!"07:40
Julius5kunikos, I see that up to 650k (flu) is more than 280k (corona so far, but probably not rising that much anymore), quite easy. I see basically the same risk groups and no one ever cared for the flu (which is kinda wrong, but still no reason to worry or even panic)07:41
Mr_Pinkkunikos im not making fun of him i pity his dumb ass07:41
Mr_Pinkhe's not giving us anything he's just being a contrarian07:41
Julius5Mr_Pink, I just came back from staying 2 weeks at my parents, that are 71 years old. My grandparents are long dead07:41
Mr_Pinkthrowing out random numbers with no backing because it feels right07:41
Mr_Pinkcongrats, needed money again?07:42
Julius5Please grow up, troll07:42
Mr_Pinksays the guy who has to stay with his parents07:42
Mr_Pinkand that wasnt a no!07:42
kunikosJulius5: with all do respect. this is all just information that you're writing to me, please give me a source. you want to change my mind. id love to have my mind change. i think it would be wonderful news to know that this is a hoax. yes bad but wonderful at the same time so that we could move on.07:42
ryoumacome on guys you can do better than this07:42
Julius5It's called visiting the family. You knew that if you had any07:42
ecksJulius5, how do you treat a patient who is rapidly desaturating even with a high-flow nasal cannula?07:43
Mr_Pink^07:43
Mr_Pinklmao grow up troll i do have family too! and i dont even have to beg them for money!07:43
Julius5kunikos, you know google, right? Takes you like 30 second to google those numbers07:43

Mr_Pinkyou know CTRL+V right?07:43
kunikosJulius5: yes. you know google pulls up mix results right?07:43
Mr_PinkJulius5 answer ecks07:43
kunikosJulius5: id like for you to provide this "set" of info that you claim so dear to you.07:43
Julius5kunixkos, it's not a hoax. It's deadly, like the flu! The panic and stupidity is real as well, sadly07:44
kunikosJulius5: that would have you to believe that this is not a real threat.07:44
Mr_Pinkhes saying its a real threat but its also not?07:44
Julius5kunikos, but it is a real threat, like the flu07:44
Mr_Pinkeven tho its killed twice the people in US of a normal flu season, in less than half the time07:44
Mr_Pinkbut the flu has killed more he says07:44
kunikosJulius5: wouldn't that make it doulbe the threat?07:44
kunikoslike if you have 1 flue than another flue comes07:44
kunikosthat's like double trouble man07:45
Mr_Pinkhe's become so convoluted he's running over his own words now07:45
Julius5Mr_Pink, since it killed not even half the people of some flu seasons worldwide, doesn't this show how bad the system in the US is?07:45
Mr_Pinklmao no07:45
Mr_Pinknot at all07:45
Mr_Pinkhow the fuck are u even getting there07:45
Mr_Pinkthis truly boggles the mind07:45
Julius5kunikos, there are vaccines for the flu and even with those vaccines more people die from the flu. Doesn't that sound way more dangerous?07:45
Mr_Pinkhow are u comparing US numbers to world numbers like that07:46
kunikosokay okay. look. flu, covid19, hoax, threat, not threat.... you guys have to admit.... this is one freaken hell of a time right now.07:46
Mr_Pinkbecause this many died in france, it shows the US is fucked?07:46
Mr_Pinkyou're fashioning an argument with both apples and oranges.07:46
Mr_Pinkare you a theology major lmao07:46
Julius5kunikos, learn to read and learn to calculate and some basic stochasitc, and you're good07:46
Mr_Pinklearn to calculate what you havent given anybody anything07:47
kunikosJulius5: dude i think i read too much07:47
kunikosJulius5: that's why i cna't make up my mind07:47
Mr_Pinkyou make statements that dont even back themselves up then u go "GOOGLE IT"07:47
Julius5kunikos, I meant read numbers, not words07:47
Mr_Pinkgive them numbers to calculate.07:47
kunikosi did07:47
kunikosthe numbers change depending on who you talk to07:47
kunikosthe graph looks different depending on who you talk to07:47
kunikosit's like WTF....07:47
kunikoswhat needs to stop is all this fighting...07:48
kunikoswe need to figure out what is going on.07:48
Julius5Even Italy's government "confessed" that 94% of the people who were reported to have died from Covid-19 in the beginning haven't died from Covid-1907:48
Mr_Pinkwhere07:48
Mr_Pinkshow us07:48
Mr_Pinkshow me the 94%07:48
Mr_Pinki want to see 94% in writing from a respectable site07:48
ecksprobably infowars or rt07:48
Julius5I am not here to google for you or calculate for you or think for you. Start doing it yourself07:48
Mr_Pinkbecause ur a fucking troll or an idiot i havent decided07:49
ryoumai can't go along with that.  you made the claim.07:49
Mr_Pinkthere's literally no information to back up your facts07:49
kunikosJulius5: yeah but it depends on what you mean by "already dying" like is having diabties "already dying" is asthma "already dying"...... it doesn't sound like the flue when it's these people dropping like flies as well.07:49
Mr_Pinki just tried googling it for you07:49
kunikosthis is what i'm saying look. stats always lie07:49
kunikosyou can't trust them.07:49
Mr_Pinkstats dont always lie07:50
Mr_Pinkif u think stats are always lying then you're a lost cause07:50
Mr_Pinkand these are stats that Julius5 is pulling out of their ass and not even sourcing correctly.07:50
Mr_Pinkso yes, Julius5's stats always lie i'll give you that07:50
Julius5Sorry, it was 96%: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Italy under "Statistics", linking to another source. Look for yourself07:50
kunikosif you give any stat you can arrange an arguement as to why the data is sufficient to describe the scenario accurately.07:50
Julius5I am not here to argue with morons07:50
Mr_PinkYou're posting FALSEHOODS07:51
Mr_Pinkthat doesnt say what u say it says07:51
Julius5It does07:51
Mr_Pinkno it fucking doesnt07:51
Mr_Pinkif u thought it did you'd actually post the quote07:51
Mr_PinkAll that says is that a lot of the dead had pre-existing conditions, something we've already known and why we deem certain people "high risk"07:52
Mr_PinkYou're extrapolating some bullshit out of something its not conveying.07:52
kunikosdude italy has 133,426 cases according to this website. and 30,395 of them died. that's a 23% death rate. of course this doesn't account for the rest of the active cases. but the samples size os sufficent to compare that of what the CDC would consider an adequet amount... 07:52
Mr_PinkThat's only the tested yes07:53
kunikosso it's like seeing these numbers i can't say that i can easily agree with you Julius5.07:53
ecksItaly has 218,000 cases07:53
kunikosecks: that's there total cases07:53
ecks133,426 closed cases (dead + recovered)07:53
ryouma%data italy07:53
Brainstormryouma: In all areas, Italy, there have been 218268 confirmed cases (0.4% of the population) and 30395 deaths (13.9% of cases) as of 13 hours ago. 2.5 million tests were performed (8.7% positive). See https://offloop.net/covid19/?default=Italy for time series data.07:53
kunikosecks: i was excplicitly talking aboute their closed cases07:53
ecksok07:53
Julius5kunikos, which numbers?07:53
kunikoshttps://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/italy/07:54
kunikosthis is the website07:54
Julius5Why are you talking about cases? This number is completely useless07:54
Mr_Pinknotice how Julius5 has abandoned the 96%07:54
kunikosJulius5: well what other data do you have to go off of?07:54
Mr_Pinkhe pivots onto the next argument07:54
Mr_Pinka classic technique07:54
kunikosi shared my data with you at least07:54
kunikoswhy not share with me your data?07:55
Julius5kunikos, you can get any number of "Cases" that you want by doing more or less tests. This number is useless and just used to scare the public07:55
Mr_Pinkthat number is not used to scare the public lmao07:55
Mr_Pinkgod07:55
Julius5kunikos, what data do you want?07:55
kunikosJulius5: see now how do you know this?07:55
ryoumato what end?07:55
Mr_Pinkits very obvious by you being a person that scientists cant be held responsible for how idiots misinterpret their information.07:56
Julius5kunikos, because when you test 3 times more you will get 3 times more "cases". You don't have to be a genius to see that07:56
Mr_Pinkstill waiting for that 96%07:56
tinwhiskersmy suspicion is that Julius5 is just trolling. 07:56
Mr_Pinkand yeah u test 3 more times and guess what, the death rate goes down07:56
Mr_Pinkhe is 100% trolling at this point07:56
tinwhiskersthe numbers are still a useful relative measure if not absolute07:56
Mr_Pinkyeah and they're in flux and no scientist thinks these are concrete.07:57
tinwhiskersthey are certainly not perfect07:57
ryoumawhat is your goal, Julius5?07:58
Julius5tinwhiskers, how are the number a good measure? They are a really bad measure, more like a random number not good for anything07:58
tinwhiskerswhy are you here Julius5?07:58
Julius5ryouma, world dominance, like very night07:58
Mr_Pinktroll07:58
Julius5tinwhiskers, it's a chat07:58
Mr_Pinkwe're literally the only people in this world willing to talk to him07:58
Mr_Pinkhis options are limited07:58
humpelstilzchen[does don't feed the troll ring a bell?07:59
tinwhiskersthe data are not entirely useless. they do provide somethingn that is better than nothing in terms of trends within a country07:59
Julius5humbel, that's why I'm not talking to Pink anymore07:59
Mr_Pinkeven his parents kicked him out of their house after only two weeks and he's gotta make his internet time at the shelter count07:59
Mr_Pinkno ur not talking to me because u got called out on your bullshit 96%07:59
Julius5tinwhiskers, that is incorrect. Not knowing is better than thinking to know when you don't07:59
tinwhiskersridiculous08:00
Mr_PinkJust once I'd like you to sound like you think you don't know something.08:00
Julius5Pink, then ask something I don't know08:00
kunikoslol omg... idk why we can't just all look at all the same web pages together and objectively say "true, true, false, true, true, false"08:00
Mr_PinkWhat went wrong in your life that has you spouting conspiracies in an IRC chat in 202008:00
Mr_Pinkif you can figure out the answer to that, i think your life will be much improved.08:00
Julius5kunikos, because in here most people are idiots and trolls, and those who aren't can't calculate or don't understand statistics08:01
kunikosi came to the IRC chat to get away from the fake news shit too. i hope it's not any of that.....08:01
kunikosor does that still happen on IRC shit now?08:01
Mr_Pinki read that 96% of Juliuses have no idea what they're talking about08:01
Mr_Pinki saw it on wikipedia08:01
Mr_Pinkprove me wrong google it08:02
Julius5kunikos, people are brainwashed, even in here. You can't get away from that. You have to think critically for yourself, always08:02
Julius5Pink, might be true. So what08:02
Mr_Pinkugh dumb ppl confusing gullibility with critical thinking because they believe the 1 guy in the tinfoil vs the sea of scientists is hilarious08:02
ryoumawas Julius5 here tonight for the first time?08:03
Julius5ryouma, no08:03
tinwhiskersyes, if this wasn't just so ridiculous I'd be quieting you for spreading FUD08:03
Mr_Pinkwhat is FUD haha08:03
Mr_Pinkis that an acronym08:03
tinwhiskersin fact... I'm really not liking the way this is going, so let's change subject08:03

Julius5And doubt as well08:04
tinwhiskersdo you have anything constructive to say Julius5?08:04
Julius5tinwhiskers, does "Grow up!" count?08:04

kunikosyou guys...08:04
Julius5Still the best advice for most people08:04

Julius5It's funny how China is already doing normal business even in Wuhan, while the rest of the world suffers from a mass panic and stupid leaders08:06
kunikoswe don't know that either08:06
kunikoshow can we trust anythign china says08:06
kunikosthey even removed our media from there.08:07
kunikoswe don't have any real good insiders there. just what they tell us.08:07

kunikoscan't get access to it at all.08:16
Mr_Pinkoh weird. i havent heard any negatives among the friend group that has been hit the hardest. a lot of service workers.08:17
Mr_Pinkthis is anecdotal but a friend who works at a local hospital (Scripps) is starting to see a spike associated with the soft openings08:18
kunikoswell it's partially due to a mix up. but even "contacting the UI office was impossible for the last 10 years even before covid" - said someone i talked to at CA Directory office.08:19
Mr_Pink11 cases last week. 38 as of thursday08:19
Mr_Pinkyeah kunikos and its wayyyyy worse for other states that make it a point to underfund services for those in need08:19
kunikosyeah which always begs the question then to me Mr_Pink... it's like why do we give these bastards our money.... lol xD08:21

tinwhiskersMr_Pink: I don't tend to justify myself these days. If I decide someone is disrupting the channel or just behaving in a way that is contrary to the desired atmosphere I'll just quiet them. I didn't think you were the one trolling but you weren't helping either.08:31
Mr_Pinksee now thats a fair point08:31
Mr_Pinkand i wasnt attacking u or anything i was just pointing and laughing at him returning out of the blue to start crap again08:32

weimarnetzbot[m]the most fake news and conspiracy spreading dudes, got mental issues....08:38
BirrossoOkay, talking about eating your neighbours is a step too far.08:38
Mr_Pinkalso they make a lot of good money08:38
Mr_Pinkselling garbage to their followers08:38
Mr_PinkThere's a really interesting podcast/episode from This American Life about the origin of Alex Jones. This reporter went and talked to childhood friends and foes08:38
kunikosif you just take what the CovBot just put out and (80,037 / (238,078 + 80,037) * 100) = %25.16 death rate based off of the current numbers. the CDC goes by a sample rate of per 100k to dictate any death rate... we have well over that sample size. has the death rate been decreasing in the projections?!??! yes!! but we've also social distanced... so i don't get the arguement here....08:38
weimarnetzbot[m]literally making gold out of shit, yeah08:38
Mr_PinkHe used to break pens and make his tongue black from ink and shout about how he was the devil and such08:38

Mr_Pinkthe whole Beware the Jabberwock ep is good but thats the Alex Jones bit in case anybody finds themselves needing a podcast in the future lmao08:39
weimarnetzbot[m]well, could be that just the followers have mental issues... but it's clear, someone have08:40

weimarnetzbot[m]aradesh: why shoud they with every change?14:02
msc386That's my point.  We have don't have hard data either way, which means we can't rule it out.14:02
aradeshweimarnetzbot[m]: vast majority of mutations cause things to fail14:02
aradeshviruses can try trillions of mutations all the time14:02
aradeshscientists can only try handfuls14:02
weimarnetzbot[m]sure, but thats what you do when you "alter" things..... you get a lot of fails...14:02
msc386This one seems to be different somehow.14:02
aradeshbollocks.14:02
nixonixtheres been several claims of (significant) new lineages, but none of them confirmed. most of them confirmed not true. the latest one that papers wrote about was D614G, but no info yet if affects infectivity. the site 614 had some function in sars-1 though14:02
msc386Your opinion, not mine.14:03
weimarnetzbot[m]it's not like "ets mutate something and await just super stuff!"14:03
aradeshthe truth14:03
msc386I think the truth may turn out to be scarier than we thought.14:03
aradeshthe same reason scientists spend decades trying to cure viruses and get no where, the same reason we spend decades unable to cure cancer, is the same reason we have no chance in hell of engineering viruses any time soon14:03
aradeshengineering viruses in any useful way would be more difficult than the former tasks14:04
msc386The big question is, can we contain this thing, get a vaccine, and halt the damage?14:04
nixonixanyways, the preprint thinking it was significant is this: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.29.069054v114:04
weimarnetzbot[m]but yes, the easiest way is to select strains that appear in nature.... other bioweapons (against crops) are made this way..... long selections of phytium etc.14:04
nixonix%title14:04
Brainstormnixonix: From www.biorxiv.org: Spike mutation pipeline reveals the emergence of a more transmissible form of SARS-CoV-2 | bioRxiv14:04
aradesheven though we have examples of human bodies that can produce anti-bodies to stop viruses like coronavirus, our scientists have no way to do that themselves. our knowledge and abilities are just too poor14:05
pwr22<msc386 "That's my point.  We have don't "> That's not what you said. You made a strong asseration that it "certainly has been messed with" 🙄14:05
weimarnetzbot[m]whil this is a fungus, breeding is mostly the same 14:05
msc386Engineering would be as simple as just selective mutation.14:05
pwr22<msc386 "I think the truth may turn out t"> That sucks because the accepted truth is pretty scary anyway!14:05
aradeshalso it would be monumentally stupid to try to engineer viruses even if they could, which they can't. because the virus is going to effect your own people as much as anyone else. even if you can somehow create a version that only effects one ethnicity, all it needs to do is mutate, and then it comes back to bite you.14:05
nixonixthen there have been a few deletions, and those might potentially weaken its virulence14:05
aradeshmsc386: it's not really that simple... it doesn't work quite the same as with normal animal evolution14:06
DocScrutinizer05engineering a virus is difficult. Botching together shit is ultra easy, basically just let 5 poeple sneeze in a cup, add vinegar and slowly neutralize the acid with natron to get a bazillion virus chimera14:06
weimarnetzbot[m]aradesh: but thats daily bizz... it would be insane to breed anthrax in labs, wound't  it?14:06
aradeshthey don't breed in the same waya, viruses exchange RNA in very weird and complicated ways, through billions of trials and sometimes getting lucky, sometimes not14:06
msc386You are correct.  And from what I've read, intel guys believe it has beebn messed with, but can't confirm.  Since China destroyed the original data.14:06
weimarnetzbot[m]and yet, we do it, all over the world14:07
aradeshbacterias are different to viruses14:07
aradeshand are safer in some ways14:07
weimarnetzbot[m]selectin for things you want... is the same... if you breed chicken.... bacteria... or virus...14:07
msc386That was my point.14:07
msc386Thank-you.14:07
aradeshyes, and it's incorrect.14:08
aradeshyou can't really select for viruses the same way14:08
msc386I don't think I said it the right way.14:08
msc386Really?  Not with Gene Splicing or CRSPR?14:08
weimarnetzbot[m]its not about the same way.. its about... its possible to select among thousends..... things with traits you like14:08
msc386Are you really sure?14:08
aradeshyes.14:08
DocScrutinizer05well, yiou can: set it free and let evolution do its job14:09
aradeshyes, that's the only way really14:09
weimarnetzbot[m]sure, yu cant let a virus breed with sex... on another virus..14:09
aradeshthe normal way14:09
msc386We shall see.14:09
pwr22To selectively breed anything you need to measure it's fitness somehow. So you'd need to infect humans with a human virus to measure that right?14:09
aradeshright14:09
weimarnetzbot[m]but you can select strains that are more "pwerfull" for the wished trait14:09
weimarnetzbot[m]and thats whats done in such labs14:09
msc386They've already done that step.14:09
aradeshyou need thousands and thousands of humans infected, to have the chance of finding variants14:09

aradeshnothing else we can do14:10

pwr22That's my point14:10
weimarnetzbot[m]there are some things you could even test only on cells14:10
aradeshdoesn't tell you enough14:10
msc386They tested it on the Wuhan community...14:11
msc386And then set them loose on international flights.....14:11
pwr22We are trying to test covid on cells to understand how it works right?14:11
pwr22it's just as easy as just sneezing on some cells and peering down a microscope14:11
aradeshconspiracy theorists being so sure about something they have no idea about is so infuriating, lol14:11
msc386My main concern is can we can we contain it, get a vaccine, and halt the damage?14:12
pwr22Given human nature, I would be surprised if we have not tried to engineer dangerous viruses14:12
pwr22I just don't think we have any evidence this is engineered and now would that even matter given our present situation14:12

msc386trying, oops.14:12
msc386No, it isn't.14:12

msc386True, sadly.14:13
weimarnetzbot[m]mostly on prisoners, or ethnic minorities14:13
msc386Yes.14:13
weimarnetzbot[m]and I can't belive that china is soooooo much better than we all14:14
pwr22aradesh: I came into this discussion a bit late, what's the conspiracy theory here. Any more than "China has engineered the virus to ???"?14:14
aradeshpwr22: basically, "it is clearly 100% obviously engineered"14:14
msc386maybe they just caught with our pants down.14:14
aradesheven though a) we have no ability to engineer viruses and b) if we could, no one clever would bother because it's suicidal14:14
aradeshviruses already engineer themselves about as efficiently as is possible14:14
msc386no one said that either.14:14
weimarnetzbot[m]it's more about "do labs around the world working on viruses, selecting it for special traits"14:14
pwr22Oh ok14:15
weimarnetzbot[m]versus "no, noone have a need for it, coz it wont work to "breed""14:15
aradeshmake a virus too deadly, it kills people before they can spread it. make a virus not deadly enough, no one cares. viruses already optimise these parameters better than we could even if we had the ability to14:15
weimarnetzbot[m]but we all know, there are sure differences, but selecting is a key, that's common to all breedings14:15
msc386I said it may have been altered.  That's possible. "Gain of Function" has been researched by many labs.14:16
aradeshtweak one thing, and you have a hundred other things you could break14:16
pwr22I suspect it's probably a good idea to let this topic rest at some point - the channels focus isn't really on the potential conspiracies going on around COVID-1914:16
pwr22There are other channels more focussed on that14:16
msc386I agree.14:16
aradeshcan the virus still get in the cells? does the virus kill the cell too fast? does the virus cause the cell to replicate it fast enough? does it cause ssytpmots of the host so that it can spread? can the virus still exist outside the body so that it can spread?14:16
aradeshit's just so far fetched and beyond our science.14:16
msc386My concern remains: can we contain it, get a vaccine, and halt the damage?14:17
weimarnetzbot[m]aradesh: what do you think are all those virus labs for? just collecting for curiosity?14:17
msc386Or are we screwed?14:17

aradeshso that we can better understand them14:17

aradeshif you say so14:18
Haley[mt][m]Part of humanity is for sure screwed. Also as we messed with natural selection for years, it haunts us down now.14:18

msc386I do say so.14:18

msc386:)14:27
aradeshpeople are taking it less and less seriously, and as our attempts to reduce cases is proving futile due to lack of seriousness and strictness of lockdowns, we're hearing noises from the government of relaxing them14:27
aradeshthe only strategy i seem to sense from the government is let it spread, but at a slightly slower rate than if we did nothing14:28

pwr22Yeah, though we did make some progress in halting things getting worse at least with our measures, even if they weren't the best14:29
msc386The data regarding lockdowns is mixed.  Once the virus made landfall, it spread to vulnerable populations, mainly the elderly.14:29
aradeshyeah. but we don't seem to be defeating spread rate of 114:29

weimarnetzbot[m]ppl get sick but not that hard14:29
aradeshother europen countries have done vastly better than us14:29
pwr22aradesh: Yeah we never got it below 1 and I suspect that's like you said because things weren't great14:30
aradeshthe govt. said we'd got it to 0.8... maybe we got it to 0.8 for a few days when the hype of the lockdown was at its highest, but the stats don't seem to show that over the last month or two14:30
pwr22Italy has done a much better job and so opening things up there would be much more justified than here14:30
msc386It seems to be an opportunistic pathogen to be sure.14:30
aradeshitaly, germany, spain, all looking pretty good imo14:30
aradeshbut yeah, remains to be seen what happens when they reopen14:30
pwr22aradesh: Yeah, 0.8 maybe considering only the testing in NHS labs versus wider testing14:31

nixonixor only use a good mask, because only those protect from aerosolized particles. perhaps. i presented an idea around 5 weeks ago to reduce the hand hygiene even on purpose, to avoid it starting from lungs, with possibly better outcome than aerosolized virus particles going straight to lungs 19:44
nixonixalso it doesnt go to lungs at all from upper respiratory necessarily19:46
ubLXIthen again, i've heard a nurse say for inhaler use, that airflow should be as slow as possible to prevent compound hitting and being absorbed by the back of the throat19:52

ubLXInixonix: that nurse's story was that slow breathing increases the proportion of compound reaching the lungs, and that fast inhalation increases the proportion moving so fast it just hits the back of the throat and stops there; ie for the purposes of using an inhaler, you want to inhale as slowly as possible19:59
ubLXIi'm not sure this idea generalises to aerosolised virions though20:02
nixonixyeah perhaps. but i think the obvious solution is the most likely working, get better masks somewhere. otherwise, dont trust masks at all, but put your energy and attention in keeping the distance20:02

nixonixi dont know. i just read in denmark, they said transmissibility went from 0.6 to 0.9 after reopening the schools. and also that quote from bbc article, in uk. those dont seem to match running doubling time that offloop shows (but it doesnt take into account the variance in testing numbers, so maybe)20:15
nixonixin germany offloops curve seems to match better the claim of transmissibility gone up recently (wasnt it in germany?)20:17
LjLcalbasi_matrix, the graphs at https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2020/04/16/tracking-covid-19-excess-deaths-across-countries seemed to suggest Italy and Spain have higher rates than reported20:18

LjLcalbasi_matrix, yes thanks for linking to the table directly because i can't actually load the link now due to subscribewall :P20:23
calbasi_matrixThere you can get that Holland has only treporting 48% of excess deaths. Like Austria. Spain 67% and UK 71%20:23
nixonixi read something like "italy is giving up to pressure to reopen", i think in finnish article20:23
LjLnixonix, i don't know that there is a concerted effort to do anything in particular. too many different "task forces" with different interests, and then the regional governments with their own20:24
calbasi_matrixSweden and Belgium are reporting 90% of deaths20:24
LjLcalbasi_matrix, how much does it say for Italy?20:24

calbasi_matrixNot shown... Just Lombardy (48%)20:25

nixonixi wonder if we can trust spanish mortality to have lowered that much. is it sure, they already have them all in stats? like it may take several months to get the official reason of death, but it might depend on country if the total mortality really includes all deaths, and up to what date20:33
calbasi_matrixHere you are updated info (week18, the last of April), including maps:20:33
calbasi_matrixhttps://infographics.economist.com/2020/covid-19-excess-mortality-interactive/table.html20:33
nixonixthose excess deaths, depends what numbers you compare. do you compare the average of the last 3 years week by week, or for longer period? do you take into account, that this was easy influenza A year, and it stopped quickly because of sars-2 measures, so less non-covid-19 mortality?20:45
nixonixand are the all mortality even in books yet, for all countries20:45
calbasi_matrixHere in Spain doctors from Hospitals are talking the situation is normilizing... In fact, usual hospital activities are restarting...20:46
nixonixaccording to nyt article on excess deaths (they seem to have used weekly average on only years 2017-2019): New York City Mar. 11  May 2  297%  23,000  18,706  4,300  - meaning roughly 23k deaths on that period, but 18706 official covid-19 deaths20:49
nixonixbut we get the rough estimate of undercounting percentage in nyc from that: the real mortality is 1 - 23000/18706 = 22.96% higher in nyc than reported (on that period - and prob even higher because the above mentioned factor)20:49
