re: #198 I Don’t Take Responsibility At All (dangerman)
It’s the goddamned math. And that guy is absolutely right.
Bergen County NJ - we have a bunch of world class hospitals. We have 195 cases. Total population: 905,000.
195 x 1024 (the doubling of cases every 3 days for a month): 199,680. That’s nearly 20% of the population sickened in 30 days. 15% of those require hospitalizations based on current trend: 29,952. Total critical care beds statewide: 4000. But the state believes it’s 123,000 beds short of peak demand.
