Virus hospitalizations hit two-month high in Iowa
- Thread starter cigaretteman
- Start date
When it's completed and results are published, you can talk about it.
Presently, it appears to be defunct, as it's practically a year old w/o any results to report.
Appears the cdc proved me wrong. Even though they punted to the businesses.
im hoping they follow the cdc as much as i was thinking they would wait until the cdc gave a % vax rate.
but i said i would base it off the cdc recommendations. Message me and we will squre the bet up
@dirtypool is a man of his word. I'll have to give him a chance to run it back sometime in the future.
This thread, as so many of ciggybot's threads do, didn't age well. Iowa's hospitalizations are down to 151. 7-day average of new cases down to 299. 7-day death average at two. And the CDC says we dont need masks anymore. The sky has truly fallen for the fear mongers.
Still reading through these @your_master5 . Interesting. Here are my issues (for lack of a better term).
- As a layman, how do I (general public) know who/what sources to trust? Personally? I've never heard of the 'BMJ Journals'. The information reads very compelling, looks "legit", BUT could just be some Russian owned URL for all I know. This is the upside/downside to sites like the CDC. The information there is supposed to be valid and reliable.
- If it turns out that cloth masks are a 100% placebo, then the current anti-mask folks (who haven't researched a single thing, but just scream and yell about personal freedom!!! get to simply say, "SEE! We toldja all dem masks wer fer nutt'n!" Do we really want to validate dip$hitery? Science must prevail or we'll never get past COVID.
There are a top 5 or 6 medical journals where scientist publish their findings:
NEJM, The Lancet, JAMA, BMJ, Annals of Internal Medicine, and Nature. Those are the trusted sites. The CDC and FDA are run by the government and have turned highly political.
“.....who haven't researched a single thing, but just scream and yell about personal freedom!!”
Of all the F.O.S. statements on hrot the last 18 months - and there have been LOTS of them - this one just might take the cake. Congrats!
So, it turns out you just want masks to work for a very stupid reason, and don't care if they really do.
And, I think you have that statement backwards. It's the militant maskers that haven't done any research and want to ignore the science and data.
Iowa hospitalizations and patients in the ICU continue to decline.

Not what the Gazette's charts say
Maps and charts: Coronavirus in Iowa
These maps and charts reflect data from the Iowa Department of Public Health and the U.S. Department of Health and …

IDPH is (most likely) delaying reporting, just like Florida, to keep the governor happy.
No, it is not.
It is misleading "data". Just like Florida's deaths counts right now.
Compare Florida's deaths counts reported on 8/14 to what they just reported by 9/4, for that date (8/14).
Does this curve look at all like this curve?
34.6 vs 237.6
So you simply want to ignore how delayed reporting provides a misleading representation of the data.
OK.
Everything on that link shows hospitalizations and ICU cases are rising. Lol.
This site also shows them increasing, perhaps leveling off, but definitely NOT decreasing
FWIW, it is this site which shows Florida's large/bulk data drops on the day they occur, such as the 56,000 new case backlog dumped yesterday.

Umm, the chart in the first link shows hospitalizations on the rise or at least stagnant. I don't see a decline but I can't zoom in to get more info.
Well, no. The data is still the same whether it was from last week or this week, and doesn't matter much to any of us.
If it doesn't matter much (in your opinion) why did you rush here to tell us it was on the decline?
Btw, before they loaded the new data, it still showed a rise in hospitalizations. So I'm honestly not sure what you were looking at there.
Overall hospitalizations and ICU patients were down. I shared it because the only news that is typically shared is when it goes up. That generates multiple page threads. But, when data is shared that cases decline, it is typically ignored.
Well, Yes.
You had claimed they were DROPPING.
Updated data proved that was false.
#FoolMeOnce........Can'tGetFooledAgain
He simply denies anything that goes against Kimmie's narrative.
Continually puts in laughing 'likes' to dead children posts, which is odd. But those all count as "likes" for me, so what-evs.
I hope cases and hospitilizations go down but you said it doesn't matter. Also, I literally looked at that page this morning and everything was trending up. So either you don't know how to read a graph, I don't know how to read a graph, or they are constantly changing that shit.
Im with you on sharing any good news and I appreciate the intent.

Virus hospitalizations hit two-month high in Iowa
State reports almost 500 new COVID-19 cases
That's because the data we are looking at was last updated yesterday, 9/7. It has not been updated today. pine caught again spreading misinformation.
I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt but man is it hard.
It’s data through (as of) 9/7, updated today. I can confirm it was updated today (midday) as I checked it this morning and it’s different now. Also, it literally says on the page the dashboard is updated M/W/F with a full site update on Wednesday.
