United States COVID - Coronavirus Statistics - Worldometer
United States Coronavirus update with statistics and graphs: total and new cases, deaths per day, mortality and recovery rates, current active cases, recoveries, trends and timeline.
www.worldometers.info
Scroll down to "Latest updates" and pick April 23 (GMT)
I believe this is the best information yet which supports and quantifies the statement that this virus is much more prevalent than the official numbers indicate.
"New York State Governor Cuomo said that preliminary findings from an antibody study conducted on 3,000 people at grocery stores across New York State found a 13.9% had coronavirus antibodies, suggesting a 13.9% actual infection rate statewide (21.2% in New York City), which translates to an estimate of about 2,700,000 actual cases in New York State (10 times more than the about 270,000 cases that have been detected and reported officially). Governor Cuomo acknowledged that the official count reported by New York State (which still is not including probable deaths as recommended by the new CDC guidelines) of about 15,500 deaths is "not accurate" as it doesn't account for stay at home deaths. Based on Worldometer's count (which includes probable deaths reported by New York City) of about 21,000 deaths and the 2,700,000 case estimate from the new antibody study, the actual case fatality rate in New York State could be at around 0.78% "

It wasn't a claim, it was a prediction.
Sadly, you might see a lot more, we have a huge melting pot research project on the go to the south.
BTW I was not saying that we are at risk here.... that depends...
Not the first and definitely not the last restaurant to bail. Guy lost his house too. As always, there is probably more to the story. Burn rate surprised me. 25 to 30k a week for a closed restaurant. What is driving that number? Obviously rent isnt cheap but that isnt close to six figures a month.

My guess would be insurance premiums. Debt servicing for a business loan as well.
Still surprising. 1.4 million a year to service a closed restaurant just seems high to me.

Because no one is ever in the bathroom and grabs a hand full of TP, blows their nose, and tosses it in the hopper.

Covid Blood Clots
For those who think it's easier to annoy you than to Google 'Covid blood clots' themselves.
I don't think it's that simple, nor is it a conservative vs liberal point of view.
Two months into this thing, I think a lot of it now is coming down to:
Either we can open up the economy so I can feed my own kids or we save some random old person who I don't know from dying in some nursing home somewhere out there.
They're not going to come straight out and admit it, of course. But they're going to try to spin the data as best they can to justify it:
"But we're different than Italy, NY, Japan, etc."
"Hospitals are empty - they lied to us"
"The numbers are misrepresented"
"It's not as bad/contagious as they say it is"
"We'll just do it better than Italy, NY, Japan"
"We'll just shut it down as soon as things start to get bad"
So a few dozen pages back... we were talking about how Canadian tire wasn't able to scale up their web services and weren't ready for this kind of craziness... well lo and behold. This is an email that was sent to Bank execs and to "the canadian media".
After checking with a few friends that work in different financial institutions i've found out that some people are actually doing rotational shifts... I wasn't made aware of anything like that at my company (RBC)... but this should be part of the business continuity plan that has to be observed for these kind of issues... mind you our Risk department has grown to an enormous monster in the past 5 years or so, maybe that's why we were ready but it seems like quite a few people in the industry have to deal with this. I've cut out the email list but whoa!
Kinda sad to see that with all that money we can't have proper infrastructure.

The point was if soap sales decline it would be an indication people have become less concerned about washing their hands and a reminder has to be sent out that if C-19 rebounds we go into lock down again.
RE the virus in wastewater thing....a week or so ago I contacted a colleague about this to ask if they can do real time wastewater monitoring of viral shedding in wastewater to get a handle on infection rates in the catchment area for the water treatment plant. They are working on it. If they can do this in a timely manner it will give an indication of whether certain communities might be able to relax some actions and whether ventilators can be moved around the country to developing infection areas.

Something odd here, esp when he says "I was a multimillionaire six months ago. Now I've got nothing.” - Multimillionaire, even $50k/month for 6 months is only $300k, If he was a multimillionare, more than 1 million, there should be enough to atleast keep his house if not the place non-running for 6 months too.
I'm really bad with economics, though with his last place closed due to construction, low margins, and the opportunity he mentions at the end, I feel there is a way here, where he sent the funds outside or transferred them, claimed broke to get incentives from the city due to losses from construction, now covid, and will use the funds for the new endeavour starting from nil (in book keeping terms)
