death poll 7.0 (the deaths of july)
« on: July 01, 2020, 11:43:35 AM »
results determined from worldometers at midnight cst, july 31.

this one's pretty interesting again after a couple of polls that were mostly mere extrapolation.  there are genuinely conflicting data and its also long enough out that you have to guess at behavioral responses.

Went with what I think was a pretty safe guess, but not my gut.

Gut says 7 day average will continue to fall and we'll see an average daily number of <483 which we'd need to be less than 15k (we're at 547 rn).  Assumign we stay on the current trend, we'd be at 483 in the next 10 days or so.  Safe guess is we hit an average north of there accounting for BS backdating crap that messes up my data and also accounts for the possibility that the 7 day will be stagnant or slightly rise.

I don’t think it’s fair that Florida is lying their ass off about deaths

I took a risk, thinking they'll start to rise soon.

Her dashboard shows ~100 more deaths than worldometers so yeah.

Yeah Cire, I don't think either of those is totally out of the ordinary.  The Miami Herald one notes a minor disparity in the death total (like ~60 I think without going back and opening it up again), and the WFTV one says that back in march, covid deaths don't match the excess deaths.  That happens quite a bit throughout the states.

What in your gut thinks the lagging indicator of deaths isn't going to rise given the rising case counts?  Age of those geting new infections?

Deaths seem to have been largely detached from case fluctuations for a while.  I know -- it doesn't make sense to me either, but the numbers are what the numbers are.

Not sure what the over 175k crowd knows that I don’t but I’m a little concerned.

I can't decide how to vote here. I wish the deadline for voting was a bit later in July...


Ehh... I'm going with 155 - 165k. I think we stay between 800 - 1200 / day this month

went with 145-155. I think we can get under that with our improved treatment. rise in hospitalizations kept me here though.

I just did 600/day for 30 days which would put us right in 145-155

Any guesses as to what day we hit 100K new cases reported in one day (before the virus magically disappears with the heat of summer)?

I'm going with 7/27/2020.
