    Math wise, the examples are all correct and very graphically straightforward for everybody to understand. Luckily for us, the virus spread moves in a more organic, imperfect manner, and doesn't reach real exponential levels. That being said, social distancing is proven to reduce the R0 of virus spread, reducing its exponentially dramatically!! bottomline: Stay at home and help the health system keep up until we have a vaccine.

      still, it follows a logistic curve. the standard for microorganisms. when we are saying that we have to flatten the curve, we mean flattening the logistic peak. 3:32
      with an interception, the curve does fluctuate but it is still a curve once you look at the averages. data is chaos, definitely in biology but we do find the log curve the patter in all growths

      @martianunlimited Před 4 lety +9

      It is worse than that.... because of the incubation period (3-5 days) and the test turn around time, (1-2 days), anything we know today about the number of cases, are the numbers 5 days ago, which is why there is typically a 1-2 weeks lag time in seeing the effects of governmental actions on the number of cases. Moreover because most countries are under-testing, the real number of infected, are typically ~1.5-4 times higher....
      We have been screaming since the deaths first start appearing in Washington that the US (early March) is on track to overtake China in the terms of the number of cases and cities would start to be overwhelmed by the outbreak by the end of March and was laughed off by the comments section... I wonder if this is how the Greek oracle Cassandra must have felt. To be able to predict disasters but cursed with having nobody believe her.

      You, your family and many friends (lets assume around 15 people) aren't representing the whole US population. If the US population has around 330 Million residents you are literally representing approx. 0% ( to be precise *0.00045454545454545%* ) of the entire US population.
      Therefore your assumption COVID-19 being basically a cold (and therefore not that dangerous) has no profound validity. Your assumption can't even be taken into consideration.
      To put it simply:
      Just because you, your family and many friends (thankfully) just had cold-like symptoms doesn't mean the rest of the approx. 329.999.985 Americans who would/could have been infected by *SARS-CoV-2* will also only get cold-like symptoms. That's a dangerous oversimplification.
      Now think globally. Because of the ease of access to modern transportation technologies every country on earth is exposed to this virus and it's disease. Not only 330 Million American are at risk but the vast majority of the 7 billion people on planet earth ("vast majority" because there will and are places where the virus never emerged because of it's small population or extremely remote geological location).

There are many factors that are at play that unless I'm a doctor that knows my shit, I'm not going to use my own personal anecdote as a standard for others. It's great that you and your family are safe, but can you also make sure that every member of your family do not have a preexisting ailment or that they'll have the best treatment when they do have it?
      A common cold has a death rate of 0.001%. Covid has 0.002%. Sure if you say it like "99.98 from 99.9? That's just a small difference!" While not acknowledging it is actually twice as deadly.

      A Singaporean old movie has the perfect quote : " you die, I die, everybody die"
      (The actual context was that they were in military exercise and one dude was cooking , the encik / officer found out and he gave the example of the enemy bombard the whole area, "if you cook inside the forest, the enemy from above see it, they bombard the whole area. You die! I die! everybody die!"
