That is white collar. I am in Tyngsboro and we have people all over. A mix of conscientious and  knuckleheads. :lol:

We also have NH next door and they don’t close anything

I expect a big jump in cases here. We are finally testing people and the spread should be increasing as well. Hard to tell which is a bigger factor at this point.

Quadrupled on Thursday. Went up another 50% Friday. Word I got through official channels is that one of our hospitals had 30 patients on ventilators (for reference, that is pretty nuts). Expect it to shoot up even more in the next day or two as tests we sent out at our hospital were taking as long as 6 days to come back and we only got our first positives in the county yesterday.

Official numbers come out at 2pm today.

I'm estimating for Michigan:

Day 10, 03/21

#1,207.27

I will adjust my numbers if self-distancing is working. My guess is no it's not working. I stopped at the store today and I watched the two people in front of me in line touching their nose, mouth face. putting their hands on everything. The stores are packed. people are still going out, work etc... Self-distancing might work a little bit but it's not going to have the effect the government wants

My son and I are in isolation. We're going back to my apt today to grab the hedgehog and cat and we will not see another human for the next 2 weeks. I work from home. He is off from school and we are in the woods...alone.  I have supplies, my rods, my kayak and a lake to feed us from if it lasts longer than expected.  And an sks with full metal jackets if someone wants to break our containment. 

The boy has seasonal asthma. He has been in the hospital for it 4 out of his 6 years and I am taking this as a threat to his life.

Solid plan. A lot of kids at our asthma clinic that I'm a bit worried about just because they already have low lung function due to asthma (and in more than a few, other conditions secondary to being born very premature).

787. But here is the thing. Almost all of these tests are coming from Wayne,Oakland,mccomb and Detroit city. The tests are not back yet for places like Jackson who has ONE listed. 1. Who worked as a probation officer...at the court house. 

 

Seems legit.

Okay, so it seems that social distancing is having a 30% positive effect on the spread. I also think you're correct that numbers are underreported/not correct

Here is my projection for tomorrow.

Day 11 03/22 

#1211.98 Total cases

I estimate as of today there are actually  62,218 people walking around in Michigan infected and don't know it yet

We have had one test come back since last sat in Jackson. Yet they are saying there is one case.

I think we both agree that is bull sh1t. When they all come back it'll look like a huge surge.

Florida is going to be destroyed by this. The amount of old people who have retired there.

 

Michigan upped their woefully behind counting last night to over 800 but man we are blowing it. When the 6 day tests results come in it's gonna send people into an even bigger panic.

The problem has been the young people. They finally had to close the beaches because they were treating it like Spring Break.

It is spring break.  The beaches should have been closed.  Pretty easy foresight there. Was once again botched by the those that we elect.

Yep.  How many people in other states did the gov and all those stupid spring breakers put at risk? 
 

They should have closed the Florida borders along with Mexico and Canada.

This is irresponsible. This makes it appear that Jackson has one case when we have not got the results back for the 6 day tests.  It gives people a false sense of security and by the time it's updates to realtime it's gonna look like an explosion

She is probably preparing for the panic about to set in when the rest of the counties start reporting. If it takes 6 days to get the first types of tests back the first batches should be coming back tomorrow and Tuesday making it look like all these counties just exploded overnight

AZ up from 104 to 152, almost 50% in a day.  Also a 2nd death.  I don't know how much of the increase is actual growth vs. improved/increased testing.  :dunno:

Up to 351...as of 14 hours ago...but compared to Michigan...Dewines policies and quick closing schools...we have 1/3rd of other similar states from first case appearance.  Now with the stay at home order...he is doing a great job.

My county went from 2 to 4 cases now.  Lot's of people sick and staying home just in case.  My cousin has been home for almost a week now with a fever and sore throat and now his dad is home with pneumonia.  My son also had a fever yesterday.

Michigan is going to be told to shelter in place today at 11.  The tests that have come back so far have been the quick type and have been concentrated to 4 counties. Wayne. Mccomb,Detroit and Oakland and that's been over 1k. When the previous 6 day test results come back it's going to look like we exploded from 1k to 4800

It seems like it might be a good time to get them to a doctor before there are more cases in your area.

We have to a call first.  They don't want us just going in with a fever.  Two weeks ago he also had a fever and we were told to keep him home.

I came here to post that they are able to test more people and get faster results this week, hence the curve will be rising. Also heard from 2 totally unrelated sources with military connections that Michigan will announce the shelter in place this weekend starting Tuesday. National Guard is training now for it. Just some second hand hearsay for now...

Nailed it...shelter in place starts at midnight tonight
