It's bullshit anyway, we're seeing "a very large acceleration in cases in the U.S" because there was a very large increase in testing
When dealing with exponential functions, linear increases in effort early on lead to extremely large differences in outcomes later on. Our intuition is not very well equipped to understand this sort of situation.
Someone who has a heart attack during the asymptomatic period was probably going to have one anyway.
This is bullshit. I can tell you that here in Kansas and Missouri they have given up on testing. You can only be tested if you present symptoms such that you require hospitalization and a doctor approves the test. Health care workers are told to self-quarantine if they think they are infected for seven days, but do not get the test. Yeah, should be 14 days, but we can't afford to loose people.
We are critically low on testing kits and protective gear such that CORVID is now considered community communicable and no point to test unless necessary. Kansas City has gone into lock down. We've moved to telemedicine, stopped elective surgeries, closed schools and non essential business.
