You know the old saying. The only thing certain is death and taxes. Seems rather apropos at the moment. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

They had things as simple as plexiglass barriers where the testers only had to put gloved hands through to test people. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | Michigan's cases shot up from 80 to 334 overnight. https://www.michigan.gov/coronavirus/0,9753,7-406-98163-520743--,00.html 74% of the cases are for people between the ages of 30 and 69 I haven't seen this independently verified, but there was a report of a study that claimed that people with type A blood were more succeptable to the illness, and people with type O more resistant.

95% of them are on the Detroit side of the state where most of the minority population lives. People who don't live here don't know MI is two states, W and E. We have very little to do with each other. Haven't been East since I went to the Detroit casinos a few times in the 90's. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| RonC Member since: Nov 7, 2012 Threads: 8 Posts: 2509 | The number of positives are going to increase as more and more people are tested because folks that are not seriously ill but show legitimate symptoms get tested. The more important numbers will be those getting seriously ill and deaths as tests ramp up. Once testing is in the millions of tests, we will be able to better judge the success or failure of the attempt to slow the spread as we try to keep people from getting it, flatten the curve to keep hospitals from being overwhelmed, increase the support for those hospitals, and work on treatments. We do need to do what we can to keep the supply chain open so that panic over the things we still need everyday does not occur. |
