The one in mission viejo where I work just opened up out the blue last Friday and haven’t really announced their safety procedures. I guess you find out when you get there I won’t be back til Friday. I know there’s not a mask ordinance and the gym is already a breeding ground for pathogens without the Rona. Most of my clients aren’t coming back right away but the pt managers wants our schedule set out 2 weeks in advance. For what? Not like we get paid for that whole duration. If I set my schedule for 6am-2 and only 6 ppl show I only get $45. Only if someone cancels or shows up. It’s a shyt organization. They pay trainers technically more qualified than me the same and i consider myself pretty damn competent for the job :beli:

Damn, my bro used to go to that gym. I think he at the 24 Super Sport in Laguna Hills now

Deaths are down 55 percent which is the most important number which would indicate it’s not as powerful
As it was
Deaths lag cases and hospitalizations. ICU admissions will tell the true story of its infectiousness and in several states this is rising.

Deaths are a lagging indicator and aren't an accurate picture of now but more of a picture of a Month or two ago.

Keep your eyes on hospitalizations.

Ehh in NYC deaths and hospitalizations have been going down for awhile now. Nobodies died in like a week in a city of 8 and a half million.

I think they’ve faced the worst and gotten through it. Took tons of deaths but I think there on to the other side now.

My bad. I didn't see the whole comment thread and that you guys initially were just talking about new york. I thought you were making a general statement.

That’s just NYC. We are looking at the rest of the country, especially these hotspots that are blowing up right now

Also, NYC is nowhere close to herd immunity like you’re speculating. Social distancing measures have kept numbers in check.

It’s closer to herd immunity then you think

the numbers were at 20 percent in April
And that was without testing many who were asymptomatic or kids

my aunt might have it
she's in the hospital for pneumonia that she says came out of nowhere. they wanted to put a ventilator on her but then said she doesn't need it.
:gucci:
we're telling her to get out of there because the hospital she's at has had patients that never come out.

The numbers arent at 20 percent in nyc i dont even think they have tested 20 percent of nyc for you to make a statement ...all they did was estimate in may the results from the antibody testing from a small sample

its a small sample but how do you know if it’s more or less then that?

Who knows. All I know is Nyc deaths have dropped drastically I think we’re past the worst of this. Let’s hope so

I don’t know she’s not answering her phone
She’s ok right now
Her husband is kind of hard headed so it’s annoying
They tested her and it came back negative but we know that can happen with positive people

:picard: after 6 months ?:salute:

However long. I mean I know there's obvious differences, one mentioned earlier in the thread being they don't gene edit themselves and that's why the mutations are so nasty, but as long as a virus has bodies to live off it's still perpetuating itself. You know?

I've talked with a biologist/ chemist friend about the difference between dead and living matter and he's the one that told me viruses are in a weird liminal state. They're neither. It's weird. I've been interested in this concept for a while.

I'm a low key animist that believes every atom in the universe is alive so I'm a little biased.
