Seriously? There were crowds at the harbor to greet the Navy Hospital ship when it arrived. Stupid doesn't recognize state lines.

Not sure exactly what you mean here, but you may have misunderstood my meaning.

I am saying to see what is going on in NY and take social distancing seriously so that doesn’t happen in every other major city. Clearly these people aren’t doing that.

Your entire issue is you like to call people homers when you are the biggest one on here. Really not debatable.
So butthurt.
I'm as homer as you are. A little less actually. I'm not in my feels that Durant left my team the way you are for example.

Switching from arguing the game to ad hominem noted by the way.

Ohio (and California) shut things down before NY I believe? You would think they would be peaking first. I think they're getting a little ahead of themselves with the projections for NY and think it will still be a few weeks away, closer to the end of the month. NY is still getting around 10K new cases daily.
New cases don't matter. Only deaths.

Yes it is, depending on which state

But is that due to more serious cases needing those tests? I don't think they're allowing tests for those with mild symptoms yet? (Unless you're rich, of course)

That's what I meant. NYC was under stay at home orders and still congregated to watch a stupid boat arrive. There will always be idiots that refuse to take it seriously everywhere, and they will only prolong this situation.

It's not a peak if case totals are still exploding. Deaths are key, but we were discussing the supposed peak.

Well the death totals been about the same the last 2 days so there is a chance that we did hit our peak but let's see how the next few days go.

# of new cases from where it was yesterday

I don't know if we have peaked or not in terms of new daily cases, different testing rates make that hard to track

All that matters is death rates, which are less ambiguous. When they peak, we are on our way to beating this.

Number of cases are dropping in Italy and Spain. Both are at under 4,000 new cases today.
It is going to get better. It was only a matter of time and that time is maybe now.

They are at a far different point than the US though. We still have states that doing little to nothing to impact the spread because it hasn't hit their states hard yet.

Peak death rate maybe as a state, but that's not the peak for the virus, which would be the point where it drops daily. We need a lot more confirmation than a few consecutive days.

This is better than nothing. Would you rather this or have deaths increased by a ridiculous amount from the last 2 days?

Of course not. I just don't want people to read this wrong and do something foolish or get their hopes up prematurely. You know Herr Donny will take any positive development as an excuse to pack the churches on Easter and undo any progress we've made.

Facts but at least here in NY, we extended the PAUSE through the end of month

That's not really true. No one is doing little to nothing. Take heart, we're starting to beat this

You refuse to acknowledge that people outside of thunder fans are saying the same things I am, and have been all along. It’s over, is what it is. You were wrong all along though.
