Not that I know of. Haven’t seen any discharge vs new admissions either. Worldometers will show tests run vs positive tests, so you can see the whole US. Also shows deaths per million and tests per million.

Some of the numbers are broken down by state, if you go to the “countries” section.
So, you are saying there’s a conspiracy . . . ?
Just kidding.
An acquaintance told me a week ago this was a conspiracy to kill off Republicans/conservatives, as it targeted the elderly.
I told him it was poorly targeted, hitting New York and Jersey as hard as it has.
Thoughts expressed openly, here seem to fall into categories:
(1) Subjective. “I’m not worried, because I’m 26 years old,” vs “I’m scared because I’m 72.” Predictably, each side “talks their position.”
(2) By the Numbers. I and others are fixated on Worldometers and John’s Hopkins numbers, daily, trying to find our hope/expectations there.
(3) Science/Medicine. We have some health care folks (thankfully) participating that seem rational and knowledgeable. But some in society do not take the two aspirin, and call the next morning . . . from distrust even of medical experts.
(4) Partisan Politics. I don’t like Trump, and others don’t like Andy, each side guided by the partisan division: but I like Trump a lot more than I like Covid-19!!
(5) Conspiracy: I’ve read it, heard it, and pondered it. The little government work I’ve done has always made me skeptical of conspiracy theories, as government(s) are far likelier to simply f&@k up than execute some detailed nefarious plan, successfully. I think the ChiComs screwed up when an infected bat researcher sneezed in the local wet market, then screwed it up by trying to hide it, and have since lied about the numbers. In any event, those thinking our government, or domestic political actors, or Western Democracies are to blame is letting the Chicoms off the hook. And they will be on the hook for decades for this bull ****, God willing, far longer than they and their henchmen can maintain power. This is their Chernobyl!

You're aware that you can get meaningful statistical data from small sample sizes, aren't you?

For some reason, I think we can expect to see you in a pair of jackboots, strutting around, loudly asking to see "your papers."
An interesting question, especially for those of our generation.
But most of these professions have on-line opportunities, without quarantine measures.
136 in ICU across the entire state of Kentucky which has a population of 4.4 million...sounds like a low percentage to me. Is it worth keeping the state shut down? people lose jobs, other health issues arise that otherwise would not have, mental health issues to appear.
When all of this first began I was telling everyone it’s not as bad as they are making it. Then I started staying home working every day, making the mistake of watching news all day while I worked. This moved me into the camp of its horrible out there...because 1) it is/was in certain places and 2) the news wants ratings so therefor coverage portrays it’s a war zone everywhere, it’s knocking on my door.
But now as time has passed, I have taken a step back. I see it was horrible in some places but not everywhere. Therefor it’s not worth shutting down every state. I don’t blame our leaders (dem or rep) for doing what they did..it was necessary until we knew what we were dealing with. It gave hospitals and industries who could help, a moment to catch up.
So now it’s time to pivot to a new approach. Our President will roll out a phased approach. I hope the governors do what is right for their particular virus situation and not fight opening thing back up in whatever capacity just to defy the President.
I can see the benefit of freshman level lectures being online. My freshman Sociology class had 900 students at Memorial Hall. No one knew whether I was there or not
Our President implied his authority was absolute, yesterday, in reference to firing things back up. I’m certain he’s been advised better since, and I hope he and governors work together in doing so.
If they don’t, it’ll look foolish on all, especially the Feds, as they’ll learn a new lesson on Federalism.
As to Nutter: we were told today at 1500 that, effective next Monday, we will be required to have an Officer posted from 0700-2300 every day at Nutter F.H. From what little we were told today, we will not be expected to be inside, rather we will be posted at the door to check credentials, allow supplies in with the proper medical people, etc.
This tells me UK is expecting to have to use it for the overflow it was set up to be, although of course we're all hoping it won't come to that, but that's what we were told today.
Today was my first day back after being off a few days, so I'm not sure how many positive/awaiting test results patients we currently have in Chandler, but I do know new patients are being brought in every day who are either awaiting test results and have the symptoms, or who have tested positive. Those who think this is all a big "hoax" are simpletons and aren't facing the reality of the situation.

The governors website.... not very user friendly. But you can click on a county and see how many ever hospitalized, how many ever were in ICU, total cases, etc. Based on this, not much going on in Fayette County thus far.
Fayette County:
Population 325,520
Confirmed Cases 206
Ever hospitalized 18
Ever in ICU 9
Deaths 7
And in Jefferson County:
Population 778,224
Confirmed Cases 573
Ever hospitalized 110
Ever in ICU 28
Deaths 49

Most hospitals are empty so much that staff are getting furloughed
Probably most places as staff have time to make choreographed tiktok videos

I know some people that work in a hospital that is similar in size to UK Chandler. It is really empty right now.
Perhaps FuzzRQ can post a video of an overwhelmed hospital in Lombardy, as CBS did when it misrepresented that it was an American hospital, and claim that it is a Lexington hospital, and just explain that it is only "stock footage" if called out on it. That was his defense for CBS.
Thanks.
No confirmed cases yet in Bell or Harlan counties. 5 in Grayson county.
It’s been about 2 weeks since this update:
320 hospital, 170 ICU.
Very stable - nursing home struggles likely keep this from being a huge decline, but there’s been no spike.
RETURN NUTTER FIELD BACK TO ITS RIGHTFUL OWNERS SO BOOGIE AND THE BOYS CAN GET DOWN TO REAL SEC BIG BOY BUSINESS

This thread is not really aging all that well for the virus fans? But it's like a religion to them- the virus is their God. They'll parrot the village idiot who kept the vampires away from him by wearing garlic and insisting that garlic worked because the vampires sure enough did stay away.
It depends on where the numbers are this summer. If the numbers are consistent with IMHE projections, then there is no reason at all why not.
Colleges have to decide if they are going to have students on campus for the fall at some point. I personally think the season will be moved forward at least a month. Or maybe more.
No, it's empty, and it will remain empty. Book it.
But guess what? Since there's 400 beds there, and all the associated equipment that would be required of any hospital, we're required to have an Officer sit on their *** at the door so no one can steal anything. It's beyond idiotic at this point, can people not understand Kentucky is SAFE ?
I know for an absolute fact UK has averaged less than a dozen Covid/Covid tested pending, a day. Two entire floors were set aside at Chandler, and not even one has ever been full, yet they're spending all this damn money for a field hospital that will NEVER BE UTILIZED?

Is there a reason why they can't just put a lock on the door? I assume many businesses are closed with valuable equipment inside and not cops guarding them.
Better safe than sorry, but remember you're dealing with politicians! Better served to worry about what's going on with Bill of Rights and and First Amendment rights. That's what the Dems are having orgasms over.
Massive waste of time, money, and resources. Yet another example on why anything government touches usually turns into a mess.
I remember when Andy unveiled the Nutter Field Hospital during his daily story hour. He had a professional video presentation of it made, complete with flyover drone footage from inside the facility. It was hilarious. [laughing]
That commercial alone probably cost us a pretty penny.
This was well over a month ago when people were scared to death thinking everyone was gonna die.
Now they're gonna have to take all that crap down and get back to football. I hope they at least let the homeless live there for a bit. Something.

Hey man, it's the thought that counts. You will always remember how much Andy cared about you.
Bud, your guess is as good as mine. Right now they're taking volunteers to work over there, and of course a bunch have signed up because it's overtime. I didn't, and won't, because it's all after my shift is over, (1st), and I get enough O.T with call offs, 72 hour holds, etc.
I'm a single dad, and while my son is 15 and can make do on his own until I get home, I WANT to be there with/for him before he finally graduates and goes away to college.
Anyway, yeah, Nutter is one of Nutty Andy's crappy ideas and it's costing all of us, no question.
If you can't support clear bad ideas it means you want people to die, from what I understand that is the new rule.
