People who absolutely did not have it saying whatever the last random illness they had was "probably" this I had a beer too many on Saturday and felt really groggy and had a mild headache on Sunday so I've bought 400 reams of toilet paper, a bunch of canned chilli and started a new Witcher III save to ride this out.

Soooo the numbers of deaths as compared to confirmed cases in the US would seem to mean that there are a TON of undiagnosed cases out there...

4 more people died in Washington State according to CNN

That's what the gene sequencing of one of the Washington cases suggests. Based on mutation speed, it's been in Washington for at least six weeks. Tends to suggest that there are a lot of mild cases, not just the catastrophic ones. In other news, there's been a case announced in my county i'm going to diiiiiieee

Six weeks put roughly around the complete lock down of Wuhan iirc.

Tends to suggest that there are a lot of mild cases, not just the catastrophic ones. Six weeks with unchecked doubling (since no real measures were in place) could mean 2^12= 4096 cases in Washington, assuming starting with one case six weeks ago, no other incoming patients, and doubling time 3.5 days (2-5 days for doubling was suggested in earlier research). Of course that's a pretty lousy prediction, based on really really basic assumptions, but if it's remotely accurate WA is dealing with numbers that could be tracked and contained.

We closed schools because someone's someone had a possible tested case, they're cleaning everything with a surface in the schools and bus pool so... I guess we're back tomorrow? Maybe? Forever closed.

This could be off by an order of magnitude in either direction. Those average doubling rates really only apply to larger populations. If the first person in WA was a super spreader they could have infected hundreds of people before they got sick.

Yeah it's not like that death church in Korea was only doubling every 3-4 days, those numbers exploded very rapidly because doubling rates are only a rough approximation of how this poo poo works in sufficiently-large sample sizes.

A reminder that one of the hot spots in WA is an assisted living home that would naturally have a higher mortality rate than average. I'm guessing most of the deaths in the next few days will be coming from there.

This is total amateur speculation, but since the professionals aren't speculating I figure I'd give it a shot. I didn't post this in order for people to start saying "there's definitely 4k infections in WA", but as a way of giving some *possible* idea of the scale of the actual problem.

It's not an estimate of market fundamentals. It's an accurate estimate of the average beliefs of the investor class, and investors are still people. People who can fall for some ridiculously dumb group-think just like any other large group of people. The past few decades should have taught you that rich does not equal smart does not equal unemotional and MBA does not equal smart does not equal unemotional.

People who can fall for some ridiculously dumb group-think just like any other large group of people. Once there are hard numbers like from an earnings report people tend to shift to a more realistic number in the market. Most companies already reported Q1 and don't report until the end of April next. Until then it's just speculation on what their earnings will be. Not that the stock price is strictly tied to earnings, a bad or good report does tend to move the price of a stock.
