Ok so forget all the other bullshit for a minute, I just got back to a PC and I'm reading this very cool dive...I mean you could use this data to plot the "flatness" of "the curve" could you not? Since "dying from the 'rona" would be a novel addition to the data set, yes?
They have deaths compared to excess deaths farther down the page. What's difficult to glean is whether those excess deaths were a result of coronavirus or our response to coronavirus. Regardless, you can see there's a correlation between early and aggressive lockdowns in places like France and Portugal. These differences are even more stark in central and northern European countries, where Sweden didn't do shit but Germany went hardcore. There also appears to be a greater disparity between reported deaths and expected deaths for lesser developed countries in Latin America; presumably because their testing or medical infrastructure has a hard time identifying things specifically related to COVID.

Yeah I saw that, and the states one which was super interesting and I'm actually angry I haven't seen this before and it is from JULY what the FUCK. I wonder what the data looks like now, and if there's any prognosticatory value to this.
Damn, I really do wish I'd seen this months ago.

"What are the chances anything like that will either die upfront or would never be anything remotely close to this in practical terms as an actual law. this is Trump simply saying words to rally a base..."
I'm hearing left AND right that either side isn't going to accept the result of this election (hell the left never accepted 2016) and it, to me, has been a foregone conclusion that the 2020 election with anything short of a dramatic landslide was gonna end up in court.
Doesn't mean he's going to be Generalissimo Trump, christ y'all. Do you not remember "hanging chads"?
