He is presumably quoting the director of his state's health department. I would hope he considers her an expert or else why would he have her in that position?

for sure, but realistically how long has this been cooking to get to 100k infected

and the front edge is being hidden in Ohio to where they report 0 deaths either by flu season or malfeasance

maybe that number came out of her ass

at any rate something seems off

so they are hiding all the bilateral interstitial pneumonia cases?

no nursing homes infiltrated?

I hear what you're saying, but the math doesn't add up and the press is in full hysteria mode, they'd report on it if was going down. it'd be on the twitters.

Well, my kids' school has been shut for atleast a week.

To whomever thinks this is overreaction.... its an evolutionary fact that being cautious is critical for survival. It only takes 1 instance of thinking no big deal... to end you. I would rather survive than to underestimate severity.
What school district?


Klein ISD

Ohio Dept of Health



How does he know that?
He's a politician, so he likely doesn't know anything about anything. Somebody he considers an "expert" told him that.
Dr. Acton is their head of the dept of health. She's the one who said it...not the Gov.

I am saying they aren't hiding anything. There have probably been dozens of deaths in Ohio that were positive CV before they were testing anybody for CV that they wrote off to old people getting pneumonia or whatever.

Remember, the cluster in Seattle was only found because the university lab went AROUND the CDC and developed the test on their own. They ignored the CDC at one point to continue testing and track down patient zero.

The amount of advice not coming from Federal, State, and local officials is staggering. Every hospital, business, school district, family is being left to make decisions on their own.

I'm a small government guy, but even I think one of the jobs of government is to manage a pandemic. What a complete, systemic breakdown. This isn't a criticism of the president or a party. It's a criticism of our government's failure, at every level, to fulfill one its basic responsibilities.


Government can't do anything well, especially something nibble and quick. It's a huge fallacy to think otherwise.

Yeah, something doesn't add up. If 100K people in Ohio had it, then the same percentage, give or take a bit, in every would state would as well.

And even if only 1% of those people needed higher level healthcare, it could not be kept a secret.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Yes if he meant 1,000 and said 100,000 that's a pretty big mistake.

And you're correct, we should be seeing a swell in cases if that 100,000 figure is anywhere close to correct.

Italy is seeing 10% of their cases admitted to ICU.

Ohio Dept of Health

if that's true, and they have 0 deaths and the hospitals aren't overwhelmed yet, then that's pretty freaking good news with regard to disease severity

If you're not testing for the virus you are not going to have any deaths from the virus.

I know that's simplistic but that's why they don't have any deaths in Ohio from their 100,000 cases.


How do they know they have 100,000 cases?

There are for sure 100,000 cases but because we aren't testing we don't know the death rate? Please break that down for me.
