Yup. And satellite surveillance of unusually high levels of activity around Chinese hospitals as early as November 2019.

But I was just citing the things I actually know and have experienced directly.

There was a significant decrease the COVID-19 daily cases reported in China following the institution of a lockdown, and therefore, lockdown may be used to curtail the burden of COVID-19.


It's logical that a near total lockdown will reduce spread.

It is logical.  It would be interesting to see actual real, legitimate data on such a policy.

Citing anything released by the CCP doesn't represent real, legitimate data, so we're left with nothing but speculation.

Forget China, any real draconian lock down would reduce spread.  Maybe half measures might reduce it some as well, I'd believe that, but area under the curve.

The point is that any real draconion lockdown is so impossible to achieve that not even China could manage it, despite their lies to the contrary.

My point is that any lockdown is likely to inhibit rates of contagion, to the extent it is a lockdown.  I can't see the alternative as being plausible.  A loose lockdown would have a modest impact.

In unrelated news, cases peaked here in Texico around 1/17, and it appears deaths MAY have peaked around 2/4, although the data are still noisy enough it's tough to draw a firm conclusion yet.

But if so, then the overall peak death rate was lower than all previous spikes in absolute terms, and the peak rate as % of cases was many times lower, than previous spikes.  Obviously that's great news.

It would work, in proportion to how severe the lockdown is, at least short term.  At some point you have to unlock things to some extent.  I'd do it IFF a situation were so dire and serious that hospitals couldn't cope and we needed to spread it out.

Deaths in Texas still haven't started dropping. Seemed like they were a few days ago, but apparently not just yet.  The peak cases were on 1/17 and dropped off quickly so we're now 4 weeks past, I would expect the deaths to begin dropping steadily as well.

Perhaps folks in critical condition are surviving longer now with treatment, but still don't make it.

might also be some cases of dying with covid not dying because of covid
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

I doubt anyone dies directly of COVID, it is possible though, I think nearly all die of pneumonia or related disease enabled by a COVID infection.
