Another Covid Update

Well, my stats indicate that these are not popular posts.  Oh well, I'm writing them for me, not you--but I do hope I'm not the only stat geek out there.

School was supposed to start here August 6 or thereabout.  My daughter has check-in day still set for then.  She's in Catholic school and the plan now is for in-person instruction.  They are cutting the day from 6 periods to four and are limiting movement and interaction at lunch.  Not sure what they will do with assemblies and Masses--I know one school was talking about live-streaming them.  Still August 6 is two weeks away, and who knows what the stats will look like then.  The public schools have already pushed the start of school back a week and they are offering a choice of virtual learning or in-person.  Basically the virtual group is signing up for 100% home instruction for at least nine weeks.  The in-person groups will get a combination of in-home and at-school, with the ratio depending on the infection numbers.  I suspect if the numbers don't calm down before August 6, my daughter's school will go virtual.  I just don't think that liability-wise they can do anything else.


So, what do the numbers look like? I have three sets of stats below.  One is the first set I ran, sometime in May.  The second is the overall number since the beginning.

The third is the numbers since July 12, which is 8 days ago.  During that time, 16,770 cases have been diagnosed, and 154 have died.  That's an average of 2096 per day diagnosed and 19.25 per day who have died.

If we look at the whole pandemic, they have been counting for 139 days, and the total number of diagnosed cases is 94,892 so overall the average diagnosed cases per day is 682. Total deaths are 3462, or an average of 24.9 per day.

Children make up 25% of the population but in my original numbers, only 1.3% of those who have tested positive. They made up less than 1% of the dead. Of those 18 and under who tested positive, 0.2% died.
