I had a post where I was gathering all the links about reopening. Now the issues with covid are different. Reopening isn't the main issue anymore. Now the main issue is the surges in cases, so I need a new post focusing on that.
Many charts comparing economics to covid deaths. There's no clear pattern that lockdowns work or don't work. Geography is the biggest contributor.
WOW. A COVID TREATMENT PROTOCOL. Lots of info here.
Use this tool to calculate your covid risk. Mine is low. Hooray!!!
Hospitalizations have surged in California, especially the southern half. It's reported that there are no unused ICU beds. The cause of the surge isn't known since the rules in CA have been rather strict. Perhaps folks are breaking rules frequently, but not being caught at it. Perhaps there is a mutation with a higher transmission rate. This article points to the possibility of capacity cheating at malls.
Update 2/21/21. Catching up on some articles about reopening schools. These are tough trade-offs. I prefer caution but not everyone agrees.
An investigation in Wuhan shows that the virus circulated for a while before being noticed. That's what happened elsewhere too.
Reopening schools is still hard.
The politics and culture war around masks. I think the conservatives decided to make it partisan.
