I don't see an answer from the research.  It's unfortunate, but that's often the case.  If I'm missing something, I'd love to be shown what it is.
When I saw it, I agreed. I didn't really see any correlation to be drawn from the data. 

If there is a racial component [african-americans disproportionately hit] it wasn't clearly shown by the data. It looked uncorrelated in the other metros even though Birmingham had higher numbers than the others.

I have trouble believing anyone could be living through what we are living through in this country right now and post something like “this country values the economy above all else.”


How are things down there in the hamlets

Would anybody else here be onboard with a permanent travel ban to/from China? 

I’m 100% down. Don’t let anyone from China or anyone that’s stepped foot in China come into the United States ever again. I’m so down with that.

Until simple tests by micro biologists are availible that's what we might have

Hopefully we never have those tests, and people from China will be forbidden from entering the US. Ban China permanently and the risk of another one of these pandemics falls dramatically. Would be a great day for our country if US leadership wised up and got rough with China.

No more Mr. Nice Guy. Time to kick some Chinese ass.

How about an open-ended ban, contingent in China drastically changing its behavior?  Or its regime?

Yep, there was nothing to conclude because it's too early. But, it showed nothing even close to the scenario originally implied (with the comment about the map), which I do not want to get into any further at this point.

Yeah that’s a much better idea lol. 

I’m just so flaming pissed at China right now that I’m not thinking rationally. 

I would be all for hammering China, throwing economic sanctions on them and anyone who trades with them, forcing US manufacturers to leave China, banning all travel to from China, and blocking all Chinese imports. I would be so down for just ripping them to shreds. 

Unfortunately, I think all that would do would make the dictator stronger. Whenever the US has tried to hammer a country like that, it’s never lead to a change of leadership. It just rallies the brainwashed people around the dictator and makes him even stronger.

Hanging in there.  As of 10 AM WV had 345 positive tests out of 9,940 (3.47%).  There have been 4 reported deaths. The county I live in still hasn’t had a positive reported case yet but that may be changing.  My wife heard through her connections today that a nursing home resident around here tested positive, so, we’ll see how that pans out.  Supplies in stores are a little better than they were 3 weeks ago.

I hope this doesn't count as so political, but in the theme of Badge talking elections, Wisconsin is apparently set to have one tomorrow amid some battles over it. Super not good.

Supreme court already blocked that and sided with the legislature, so it's set to go on.

Well the obvious evidence for this hasn't transpired yet.
We'll all go back to normal a little while before we should.  And the virus will spike again.  I'd love to be wrong, but we all already acknowledge there is a sliding scale of lives to economics, but we're not even halfway into this thing.
.
Just watch.   You might have less trouble believing it then.
