I have very few public comments on this

One thing I hope we see later is the number of tests given for this vs other issues.  If we only test the ones who we think have it, then the results will be higher.  I honestly do not know how many people we actually test for the Flu.  I was tested for the flu back in jan, I was negative.  It is the first time I actually remember in a long time that I was given an actual flu test, vs just here are some drugs or come back in 3 days if you still have the symptoms.

Numbers can be manipulated to show what ever needs to be shown.  I don't feel like we have a great grasp of the overall issue and the real numbers.  When they come out in 3-5 years it will be interesting to look back and see what the real impact was.

At least I am sitting at home watching all the neighbors walk their dogs and have them poop on my corner.  Yeah for yoga pants.

@Trailabite
aren't you a Chief Estimator? are decimal points inconsequential at your company?  [poke]

That's why I have estimators that do all of the work lol.

I have been watching the daily numbers https://dph.georgia.gov/covid-19-daily-status-report

The Rural counties #'s are really starting to increase. Dekalb, Cobb, and Fulton have more testing sites so the numbers of people being tested is increasing. I am curious what the margin of error is because there are a lot of people being told to stay home that they haven't tested.

My parents, up around Justin, have indicated many many people are starting to leave the city and retreat to their vacation homes.  They are buying out the stores of supplies.  I would think this will help things expand as well.

Hopefully, the testing is getting more accurate as well. They were saying the earlier test were only 30% accurate.

The New Jersey governor told his people a while ago:  Do not go to your beach house...if you get sick, there are not enough hospital resources to take care of you.

probably the same applies to Union county...but since it's fake news, they really won't have to worry in NoGA.

A friend of mine that's a researcher sent me this daily chart that allows you to see the timeline.

I hope its better than 30% though, my Doc did warn me about False Negatives.

Liquor and gun stores better be "critical facilities".

Liquor stores are deemed essential
