Ohio Health Department Official - “Young people should be concerned! “ These doomsday scenarios have made people not head any warnings. Same person told Ohio to expect 26k cases a day.

Where is that graph about people saying we did too much / it wasn’t too bad because the science and other measure of mitigation worked...

As someone with nurses and doctors for friends who are actively on COVID wards in Ohio... when they asked for us to continue distancing if possible i will listen

like

The tone of your OP was inflammatory - if you would have started with this last comment... could have had a convo.

Just because you don’t die doesn’t mean it can’t do long term damage. Lots of people with recovered who still experience lung issues, increases in strokes, children with multi-system inflammation effects. It’s a new virus and we really don’t know what long term effects could be, even for those who only had mild symptoms.

Yeah... it’s just frustrating to me because I have very healthy, young (20s) friends who are taking precautions (masks, hand washing, social distancing) but are afraid to go out, even just to go outside, because they think they’ll die if they get Covid. That’s where I see these messages, however well intentioned, get misconstrued.

Ohio is moving to restrict Actons power in forcing a lockdown because everyone can see that the data shows they should be opening up.

It’s ok to be wrong. Even wildly as wrong as her models she used to create policy but when you look at data in the face and ignore it then you are wrong and should be held accountable.

What point are you expecting to make with a post no one can even verify?

Wait, so they said that without mitigation we'd see a peak of 26,000 cases per day.

Your evidence that this is dumb is a chart about total deaths, which relates neither to cases, nor to per day, and all of this is with mitigation.

How do you call me ignorant when you seem to be mismatching data points that can't be properly compared, and seem to completely ignore what our two months of mitigation likely did?

If a car is about to hit you, and I push you out of the way, will you use the fact that the car didn't hit you as proof that you didn't need to move?

Do you do any data work at your job?

Why did we have to fight WWII? People were saying the Japanese would invade California, but the Axis went away on its own!

No, this was the first one

Ohio was honestly the best - they shut down almost immediately and major props to them for taking this seriously. But, 1,500 people still died and there are many more not counted in the excess death toll who weren’t able to be tested.

What I love hearing is how the scientists were right about people’s complaints. If we went below the expectation of deaths, everyone would question if these measures were necessary. If we didn’t, people would complain why we weren’t more prepared. And yes OP, we are about to hit our standard models projection because we’re about to cross into 100K death territory. 100K-240K is the best case scenario with aggressive measures. Where do you think we would’ve been without them then? Let me tell you 1-2m. Hindsight is ALWAYS 20/20

like

Way under? We’re at 95K and unless this virus disappears in the next 48 hours, we’re definitely going to be hitting that mark. Even if you reference the White House’s model which is 100-240K, we’re still not way under. Let’s also not forget excess deaths are NOT counted in official tolls. Let’s also not forget the president adjusted his toll down to 60K one day, then a couple days later adjusted it back up to 70K. What was he assuming? The virus would just disappear after he said so?

People blast this president because he had a god awful federal response with PPE, downplaying the virus and delivered conflicting reopen/close messages. States were the ones who implemented lockdown measures to slow the spread, not the federal government

Today there is a total of 28k cases. Of course there has been a shutdown but there needs to be a right size conversation.

like

Well, because young people ARE dying and more illness and death not obviously related to COVID are turning up. And these numbers are with past social distancing, etc.

Not sure I take your point.

Just wanted to share this with people who would understand. Had 4 IEP meetings last week. When the case manager asked one mother if she had any concerns she said her only concern was that her kindergarten son with autism loved me so much she was afraid of him being promoted and being out of my room. I told her not to worry, in our program I will have him for 2 more years. Boy that made me feel good.
