de-factoyet its not normalized or such, so just their algo's raw detection 19:32
de-factowould be interesting to normalize those detections as well as active cases and calculate a correlation coefficient19:35
DocScrutinizer05de-facto: do we have a documented concise mathematical definition of flag handling?19:36

de-factobtw switched to use Meldetatum too now (so i dont have to deal with nowcasting at least for now)20:06
de-factobtw Merkel warned that on 24.12 we could have a daily incidence of 19200 in Germany so that roughly would correspond to an assumed average R = 1.11 - 1.15 (depending on serial time either 4 or 5.2 days)20:11
de-factounfortunately not too unrealistic, so i really do hope they will implement proactive containment measures20:11

LjLde-facto, still better than any of western europe but italy ;(20:16
de-factobut cases are slowly creeping up, i dont like this with R>1 (even only slightly) current incidence will be exponentially amplified with time20:17
de-factoe.g. if we could half current incidence from 2000 to 1000 we could prevent almost 10 000 on Christmas, just as example20:18
de-factothats a factor of 10x20:18
de-factoN(0) = 2000, N(t) = N(0) * R ^(t/tau), with serial time tau = 4 or tau = 5.2 20:20
DocScrutinizer05de-facto: many thanks! :-)20:20
de-factowelcome :)20:21
de-factohope it helps20:21
metrodo you think they can prevent people from celebrating Christmas?20:22
metroI guess corporate events won't happen20:22
de-factono but maybe travel restrictions or such?20:22
DocScrutinizer05>>Merkel warned<< well, I guess the purpose of this warning is to make it not come true.I recently see lots of people wearing masks during their walk on empty pavement/sidewalks, so let's hope the concept of warnings cganging behavior of people works likeit did in spring20:23
de-factoyes i think its good she mentions it, we really do have to become active right now, its much easier to bring down "low" prevalence in comparison to when its already become "high" prevalence, especially because at some point there will be some non-linear amplifying effects kicking in, such as previously separated infection radii touching in social life etc20:25

de-factoDrosten once compared it with a coffee filter: you constantly drop a water in from above, but no coffee comes out below for quite some time... until the whole filter is soaked full of water and for each drop you add one drop of coffee comes out at the bottom20:27
de-factoso with incidence there also will be such saturation effects when natural barriers fall down due to some critical value reached20:28
