Coronavirus (COVID-19) is too exciting for adults to discuss (CLOSED)

Just saw a Pulitzer Prize winning reporter say that 60 Secret Service personnel were quarantined and that 31 of them have tested positive for COVID.

Sounds like there will soon be several more White House staffers that will test positive, other than the two we've heard about so far. The one aide that served POTUS food, and Pence's press secretary.

So, I took the daily death totals from Apr 7 (the first day that the daily death count cracked 2,000) through yesterday (May 4) and put them in a spreadsheet. I then calculated the weekly death rate for each possible full one-week period, starting with the 7 Apr to 13 Apr period up through the Apr 28 to May 4 period, and plotted the averages and a chart:

You can see that since week period ending Apr 25 (column 13), the week-to-date average for each period has been declining every day.
Worldometers had implemented a three-day moving average a week r so ago, but now has shifted to the one-week moving average I am using:

Add Ivanka's personal assistant to the list.

Most drones have a "default" mode to get them back home if there is a a problem so the only safe way to handle a "problem" drone would be to shoot it down with some bird shot or so I've heard. Obviously I'm not recommending such potentially hazardous action. Be a good neighbor. A safe neighbor.

A clearer picture of those Secret Service numbers indicates that 23 have recovered, 11 have currently tested positive, and 60 more are self-isolating.

Holy. Fucking. Shit. Total whack jobs. I'd love to see an A-10 strafe their houses and see what they'd do...
