March 30th, 2020 - The White House Ratings Hit

I've learned a lot of great things this weekend. Not everyone should have access to Facebook live, Buzzfeed knows I'm over 40, and best of all, I can almost afford a new tiger. This work from home thing is really paying off in ways I never imagined.

As of today's CDC numbers, everyone in the US will have either watched Tiger King OR contracted/recovered from Coronavirus by May 22nd. Pick your poison, I guess, but get it in now. 5.7 million of you may not have the chance to do so. That's quite a jump in mortality rates to 1.7% from 1.43%. You're up, Carole.

Shout out to New Jersey, really stepping up their game with a 41% growth in cases in a single day. Guess all those spring breakers came home.

I got super hopeful on our testing there for a moment. However, complete US testing has moved back to June 25th. So the virus grows at 15.82% per day, but testing grows at 9.4% per day. #HashtagWinning

The White House, fresh off their “ratings hit" has re-negotiated contracts with COVID-19 and determined that the new shoo away date is April 30th. So in about 2 weeks, it should push itself back to May 15th. I'm really looking forward to returning to work next year.

That's about it, make sure to leave a comment!

What is this?

Don't worry, I'm just here with numbers. I'm not a scientist, and I'm not a doctor. I like mathematical trends, and that's about it. The numbers you see in every post are based off growth rates taken from the first cases of COVID-19 by the CDC and the current numbers they provide. This is simply a bunch of posts over a trendline.

The current numbers are real. The math is factual, the outcome is not.
