Question I have is how the fvck DHEC is calculating their % positive based off the previous day’s test numbers. However the large percentage of people aren’t receiving results that quickly. Most are still in the 2-5 day range.
Hospitalizations up over 30% & Positive test rate up to 21%

You’re right. When SHTF starts it most certainly would save a lot of lives. When brain dead idiots like you attempt to break into my home or attack me in my vehicle or elsewhere because you weren’t prepared.......
So far you have zero clue as to whose reporting and testing is even remotely accurate.
Me in particular? Or all of us...?
One of the most difficult aspects of this situation is not knowing where we are and not having what seems like reliable data. It's one of the major weaknesses of our dis-integrated healthcare system of systems and another example of how we don't get much value for our healthcare spend.
If you don’t think this is being used to hurt Trump’s election, you’re either oblivious, or playing dumb.
I had the same question and settled on this answer: Of the test results available today, X% were positive.
Trump's absolute failure in handling this early on left him wide open to this being used to hurt his re-election chances, as well it should. He buried his head in the sand instead of taking it on.
hahahahaha! I bet my life and that of my family’s own it. Don’t let your mouth get you into something you will regret.
We've reached the Wachovia parking lot moment of this discussion.
i've tried. he's too much of an adult for it. he'll keep threatening though. i really want to drive by a wachovia video taping an old man having a heart attack with anxiety
When 90% of the items in a grocery store aren’t actual nutritious food, it gets kinda tough.
We have to hold our food producers feet to the fire and completely change how the country consumes “food”.
Lazy parenting and consumers are a problem. Trying my best on this end...just convinced my 6 year old lunchables are evil...it’s a start.
You people are constantly talking out of both sides of your mouth...which is it? Is COVID-19 not an issue if you're outside and not wearing a mask or even inside at a bar drinking or at a restaurant chewing with your fat mouths open and thus you should be able to do as you please or are you blaming the increased numbers on protests that occurred outdoors, often with people wearing masks and at times spread apart? I get that most of you COVID-deniers don't believe masks work but I can vouch for a lot of what I saw in NYC either in person (though I didn't participate, no time for that anyway) or through countless clips...most people were wearing masks. There were a lot of bike protests too where they were plenty spread out.
IF wearing masks and social distancing helps, and I tend to believe it does as do most people who can look at this objectively (or at least that they can't hurt you unlike what's become another rallying cry for imbeciles), that could very well have helped to keep the numbers at bay...at least in NYC. The protests have been going on for longer than 2 weeks and there haven't been any significant spikes here because for the most part, even though there are plenty of idiots who do what they want, NYers have acknowledged the situation and followed guidelines. It's pretty telling that where we currently stand is much better in comparison and now we're keeping you yokels out.
I’m not threatening. That’s for children. If I were going to waste time on you, you wouldn’t know it. And no ones gonna have a heart attack or be all anxious unless it’s you. And you definitely aren’t worth going to jail over. I’m saving my efforts for much bigger fish. Go back to your fish bowl little fishy.
pretty sure that's Ephesians that talks about threatening people on the internet. good work.
also, not knowing what a threat is doesn't bode well for your ability to read.
testing up.
more equipment such as ventilators, hospitals better prepared now
just a guess
Wait wait wait, we have been told that doctors don't do anything like that for money and would loose their license immediately if they did. Clown horn, honk honk......
and which hospital is this? Hell our hospital is no longer even pre-screening for Covid before electives.
LOL! Like I said you’re not worth my time and definitely not worth having a record. I do sometimes enjoy this back and forth for a good laugh. But now I’m getting sick of you showing up everywhere just to start something. So consider this our final goodbye. I won’t be able to see your little comments to start shit moving forward.
Keep fighting the good fight. I just told my 3 year old ice cream is a no go if she can’t eat veggies. She melted. Haha
Well said comrade, once the smoke clears from this you will receive extra rations for you and your family.
I believe that most of the increase is in 18 to 30 year olds . percentage wise more in the younger categories testing positive should lower the death rate . Older , wiser people are wearing masks , distancing and washing hands and face more and not going out nearly as much . But that’s the way it should be given the risk factors . Wear a mask , distance , keep clean , watch where you go . Shouldn’t be that hard !
Except hospitalizations are also going up. From 500 on June 8 to 1400 today. Death isn't the only negative outcome.
It's a crappy question. But, one of the many crappy questions that has to be asked. No one likes to make the "what's a life worth" calculations, but we do it all the time. Insurance. Personal injury attorneys, etc. I don't have an answer.
Someone please explain how these numbers work (I didn’t post the video clip from WYFF but this sums it up):
WYFF reported 2 nights ago that the COVID 19 had hot spots in the Upstate. They related the hot spots to the cities and hospitals with the highest % of beds in use. AmMed of Anderson was singled out as the worse case in the state with 94.2% of beds/rooms in use. Most of our attention span doesn’t make it past this point.
But, they continued the story by interviewing the Anderson County Emergency Manager and asked him the reason for the spike. He went on to explain that 94 % only represented the rooms they currently make available due to supply and demand. In other words, AmMed may have 200 rooms, but they only staff 100 rooms and 94 of these rooms have patients in them. He said this helps them save money as they did not need to staff all rooms, but they could if needed. Now, we just went from 94.2% capacity to 47.1%.
Now it gets even better. He told WYFF that of the 94% of rooms in use, Only 6% were related to COVID.
Now, go back and read the beginning again. Tell me we are not witnessing a conspiracy to hype this virus.
For anyone doubting my accuracy, here is the response from AmMed after the 94% beds full report.
Not because they died, it’s because the got rid of their cell phones because they knew the government was watching everything they did
