Sometimes ya gotta laugh so you don't cry.

[mu_hilltopper]

Wisconsin broke 5,000 cases for the first time today, with a positivity rate of over 27%.

Bzzt.  False.  We broke 5k three days ago too.

Also .. we're just a hair under 20k for 4 days.   Think an entire Bradley Center's worth.

My bad. Getting hard to keep pace.

Well, at 1% mortality, that is 200 more deaths in the next few weeks.

Doesn't matter. They all will have deserved it. If they even die at all. It's just idiot Fauci, pathetic Birx and the libs faking deaths, you know.

Vice President Hannity says actually only 1 American has died, and he was a 137-year-old guy with brain freeze, a broken heart and the boogie-woogie flu.

According to Homer it's no big deal, as it's only old people.

In the future, are we allowed to laugh in the face of republicans when they tell us they are pro-life?

They're anti-choice.

Which is ironic because that side of aisle tries to fight against so much under the guise of freedom of choice.

WI continues to 'round the turn' with another 5,278 confirmed cases and 59 deaths.

This morning there was a funeral possession of over 200 cars going into the cemetery two blocks from my house.

They are more like for forced birth.

Deer hunting spread looming, bringing it home for Thanksgiving gatherings then, hold on to your butts.

The next couple months will be awful.

Ehh the only two that are concerning are deer hunting and new years. For a majority of Wisconsin the people they will see are already in the "personal bubbles"

Oh I doubt that.

[Uncle Rico]

Oh I doubt that.

I was in another golf outing in Waukesha County yesterday where masks were a myth.  We had an hour delay due to frost and 30-40 dudes were in the bar and seating area, none of them in masks.  I skipped the post round reception again because of the same dynamic.  I wore a mask in and out using the restroom and getting a drink and felt like an outsider. 

The restaurant I have breakfast at alternates between distanced seating and what they had today, cram as many people in as possible.  This was in West Allis.  This thing isn't going to get better anytime soon in this state.  For the record, I made my order to go as I sat alone in my mask

We've rounded the turn so much, we've arrived back at the beginning of the race track.

Herd Immunity here we come!

Man, we've got a long way to go.  5.8m people in WI.  325k positive cases.  let's round that up to 1m for people not tested/asymptomatic.    Let's say we maintain 31k per week.   And a low 50% for immunity.

4.8m, 31k per week x 50% = ~18 months before we hit 50%.

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

4.8m, 31k per week x 50% = ~18 months before we hit 50%.

This is one reason why showing your math is super important.  Let say its faster--half that.  We have no idea that immunity is even durable for that long.

I have yet to see anyone arguing for burn through show their math, how much ppe is needed, discuss the toll on the hospital system, etc.  Just disingenuous

If the goal is herd immunity, then get rid of all the PPE and let it progress way faster eh?

The medical professionals appreciate your empathy.

(Yes, I know you weren't being literal.)

360M Americans x 60% herd immunity x .5% fatality rate = 1, 080,000 dead and another 20M (?) with last health effects.

That's my math.

[Skatastrophy]

360M Americans x 60% herd immunity x .5% fatality rate = 1, 080,000 dead and another 20M (?) with last health effects.

That's my math.

We should easily get those fatality rates up over 3% since hospitals are already filling up.

[Jockey]

Bingo!!

The killers don't realize that when you go for herd immunity, hundreds of thousands of people will be unable to get care.
