April 6th, 2020 - I'm Almost Hotter than Tom Hardy

So it's now good to go ahead and wear a mask in public places. Not that I was already trying not to sneeze on the produce, but this really has its benefits. This face for radio now has a fighting chance. My wife says I've never looked so good with one of these things on, and she almost can't tell the difference between me and her celebrity crush. Suck on that, Tom Hardy!

FYI, if testing was going so well, my numbers wouldn't look like such barf. Complete US population testing has moved back from June 25th to July 7th.

The folks who are getting tested positive for COVID-19 are starting to throw in the towel a little early. Our national death rate has climbed by 19% to 2.69%. Our dates of 100k to 240k deaths remain between April 23rd and April 29th. I can see all those hydrochloroquine posts from Sean Hannity are really paying off.

If the mathematical numbers hold, this virus will catch between 3.8 and 9.2 million of the American people. That means that, as you read this, you have as much as a 2.8% chance of catching this virus. If you lick the railing, I'd assume that this number may fluctuate. Any takers?

Now if everyone just goes and ends the shutdown now, we'll top out at over 8,000,000 partygoers leaving the scene on our about May 23rd when it's impossible to infect anyone else in the country. The total infection date hasn't changed, but the number of bodies continues to climb.

That's about it! Happy days. 13 days until our current shut down gets extended in Nevada. Make sure to leave a comment for a fun Elliot fact!

March 16th, 2020 - They're Just Numbers

Before I get started, any critical comments will be met with a funny fact. Give me my spreadsheets and stop freaking out. We'll be fine, and cooler heads will prevail, as they always have. #2 (no pun intended). You'll be happy to know that I have not contributed to the toilet paper shortage, not only by already having plenty of toilet paper long before this event, but by making every effort to hold it in to 1 poop a day. Boy, is that moment glorious. 'Merica!!! According to the CDC, the growth rate since 1/14 should have given us 2,291 cases this morning. But NOOOOOO! Not only was taking the under impossible with every sports book closed, we went big with 3,487 infected or recovered cases, bringing us a growth rate of 12.8% and to total US infection/recovery by June 20th! We're barely making it to summer! Which means we're almost there! It sounds to me like some healthier folks have decided to join the COVID party! We have pretty much halved our body bag requi...

March 13th 2020 - This Virus is YUGE

Happy Friday, Y'all! This virus is YUUUUUUGE! I'm super proud to be a part of a country that has executed 13,624 specimen tests for COVID. Thanks to the Trump administration, I feel like we're super close to catching up to South Korea's 220,000 tests. Thankfully, we've got bigger scoreboards we can borrow, as every significant sporting event is cancelled to help us find our way to slowing the rate of growth and, inevitably, shrinking our infected population. Who would I be without my numbers! Our growth rate has increased by 5.6% to 12.03% per day! Today's 1,629 infected or recovered means we've advanced our way to total US infection by June 30th. Per a previous comment, parking is gonna be SOOOOO easy for those July 4th fireworks! There's an upside to everything. Tough loss for casket manufacturers, as our predicted body count has happily shrunk itself to just under 9.8 million. I hope they weren't capitalizing too early on demand. Also, I...

April 20th, 2020 - Wait, This Isn't a Gun Show?

So it's the 20th of April (happy weed day, btw), and Trump supporters are protesting against Trump, who ordered folks to stay home until 4/30, by telling people to vote for Trump because of the Coronavirus. I've watched a handful of these folks protesting nurses and doctors and other medical experts, and I have literally no idea what their message is. Regardless, these new human petri dishes should check in to their local medical centers in about 2 weeks, so let's not break down these task forces TOO fast, okay? Our survival rate has dropped yet again, but continues to hold above the global average at about 95.33%. This brings your favorite family picnic or protest march to about 22 infected people before 1 of them will be leaving in a casket. Protesters in Michigan will be proud to know that their voices have been heard, and they've joined New York in below average survival rates. Nice work! Since so many folks are shaking hands, hugging, and comparing small penis ...

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.
