Remember....the whole point was to flatten the curve. We’ve done that. And with protocols in place, we continue to do that as a country.

Move along.

Have we?

yes. We have. In 99% of the country we have.

I know you’re really in to what men think but that’s not what I asked. Has the curve flattened?

By every objective measure.

Maybe if the kids carried signs and brought spray paint, he'd open up the playgrounds for them.

Here is a good example of how a business, even though it's a franchise, will be impacted by the Opening up of America and not following protocol. An employee from the restaurant is posting this on facebook. I'm sure there will be people avoiding this place because the employees are testing positive and not wearing masks.

Let me piggy back off of my last post. After weeks of expressing discomfort for being the only person to wear a mask and consistently being one of select few to actually spray the sanitizer solution (that kills the virus) on the tables and menus I decided to step away from my role at Wild Bills in Fargo until the proper protocol was put in motion as it should have been from the beginning. Now having at least two confirmed cases(more results pending as you read this), we have been instructed to “not talk about it too much” to avoid panic among guests. Which in my head means don’t talk about it so people still come here. While I love my job and the people I work with, this is much bigger than all of us and at the end of the day if I don’t have a job because I was one of the people to inform others of our current situation, so be it. I feel it is our duty to at least inform our guests of our current standing with cases and let them decide if they want to eat at our establishment. So if you happen to go to Wild Bills and we are extremely understaffed this is why, because most of us are waiting for results or have to be quarantined due to being in direct contact with someone who has tested positive. If you have been there within the past week I suggest that you get tested. Please stay safe

Which curve? Testing, Cases, Hospitalizations, Deaths?

Working just as the system should work. This is America, not everyone is going to follow the rules. Let's call out those who aren't, and let's highlight those who are, and people are free then to choose where they want to go to eat or purchase items or services based on the best information they have regarding how businesses are doing in terms of following suggested protocols. I'll gladly go to a store doing the right things just as I'll gladly avoid stores who are shirking their responsibility. Market Darwinism. I'm good with it.

Details. Don't get in the way of sensational headlines, that's what journalism today has become. High brow click bait.

Market Darwinism is a great description.

Are you in favor of doing away with health codes? Honest question.

I want to see the curves flatten (other than testing). Which ones are?

Scroll down to Cases and Deaths bar graphs. Looks pretty clear to me.

Total new cases and deaths are promising. Now...break it out by state and county.

For example...WA State’s per capita infection rate is flattening a little but that’s due to aggressive measures in King and Snohomish Counties. Spokane is now about equal with King at its peak and Benton, Franklin (Tri Cities), and Yakima counties are 5 times the rate of Seattle at its peak.

Wa State is a microcosm of the US culturally and politically with high population density in the Western side of the state and more rural on the Eastern side.

I love nuance and ain’t afraid of it. That’s why I asked.

Why? So you can cherry pick your results with small populations? Why didn't you specify what area's curve you were asking about? I assumed "we" was USA.

Wuhan is doing great! Flattened the curve. Beijing is entering lockdown.

We are a republic of states.

I know this will be bad for SDs Street cred but he's my favorite poster on here.

If you drill down you get to this page where you can go by state and there are several other options.
