There are papers on these issues being published regularly that are being reviewed and one actual Nobel Prize winner posting graphs of the data on Twitter where he has been making predictions.

Don't worry, I don't make policy.

Instead of listening and learning. You are preoccupied with bashing Trump.
I get that you are reporting what you think is a correct thesis

Let me put this in computer handicapping terms. I am sure you know this. In trying to show a profit we all use past history to project current reality outcomes. Whether short term or long term. But believing your numbers over the last week, month or year will be future outcomes is not enough.

For instance in neural networks, there is a a training dataset, second dataset called the validation dataset, and finally the he test dataset. Going forward testing your system of method is vital.

The advancement of science pretty much follows that arrangement. So far your premise has not been beyond the validation phase. Sounds good on certain segments in the past data, but you and the other researchers have not yet tested it going forward.

You don't even have a proper scientific test laid out HOW it can be tested.
Similar, but absolutely superior the commotion on this board about Hydroxychloroquine At least the mainstream established MD's could bring to bear the "randomized double blind placebo control studies, the “Gold Standard” in intervention based studies.

You need rigorous scientific "tests" to advance your claims.

How many horse racing "systems" pan out going forward?

I could invent dozens of devices, but a working model was the bottom line.

So what you are saying is that I can't trust models built by Nobel Prize winning mathematicians and data modelers on Covid even though they are doing a very good job projecting things but I should trust them on global warming even though their model projections have consistently proven wrong.

How about simply using the data that we have and adjusting your thinking as we get more data the way I am?

He can't. He's bound to the narrative...no matter what.

It's not a good look.

As I said, super spreaders were common knowledge way before these new theories...

For instance no fancy shmancy variations on herd immunity was needed to figure out exactly what would happen.

We already knew no masks, no social distancing super spreads the disease.

Rose Garden Massacre Super-spreader Event Could Put SCOTUS Nom in Jeopardy
https://www.tmz.com/2020/10/03/7-whi...uper-spreader/

It's looking increasingly like Donald Trump's Rose Garden event a week ago where he unveiled his Supreme Court nominee was ground zero for what is increasingly looking like a super-spreader COVID event, and ironically, it could sink Trump's SCOTUS nominee.

As you know, almost no one was wearing masks or social distancing as Judge Amy Coney Barrett was introduced by President Trump.

Your models did not work previously going forward. You posted this 06-10-2020

Deaths in the US have been declining steadily for weeks. I've been tracking the data for months myself on a spreadsheet as have many other stats oriented sites.

Check
Nate Silver
@NateSilver538

He gives daily updates. The data in NY has been awesome and OK elsewhere except in a few states where we still aren't sure what's going on. No we are mostly waiting on the impact of some recent openings and all the protests.
Deaths after 6-10-2020, did not continue to "decline steadily for weeks"

I told you you were a "day trader" ignoring long term epidemiological trends.
As of 7/01 deaths began to rise and are today where they were when you proclaimed they were declining. Deaths have plateaued. Smaller cycles within larger.

At the moment approx 900 per day. My models were simply based on longer term mainstream projections.

Conclusion:

Don't jump to conclusions with your latest models

Furthermore, "plateauing" means pretty much a steady death rate.
Can you guys' new super spreader theory explain this difference any better than
standard epidemiology can.?

74 year old Trump and his comorbidities make him a high risk patient. If he were to head back to the White House in fine shape in 2-3 days, the narrative that we should all hide in the basement because Covid is a death sentence will have been dispelled.

Additionally, as someone who has had covid, Trump can better speak to the illness and relate better to the masses on this health issue. My sense is that Trump comes out stronger politically after he recovers than before he got it.

October surprise indeed!!

Well that, tucker, would beget the notion that his getting it is a hoax (an idea that already is out there); even if it relies on all those other positives from the Barrett event being in on the hoax.

The only conclusion we can draw is his and his pals wanton disregard for common sense, put him and his pals, and a bunch of innocent bystanders in harms way unnecessarily.

And it is beginning to look like the voters agree. That and his abysmal debate says it's now lights out to your cult who continues excuses him for any egregious idiocy.

Trump and his pals did not advance the laissez faire minimalist epidemiological approach favored by you cultists.

Nearly 3 in 4 think Trump did not take appropriate virus precautions: POLL

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trum...ry?id=73411221

In the wake of Trump's diagnosis, the survey also found an increasing number of Americans concerned that they, or someone they know, will be infected with the virus. Eighty-one percent are either very or somewhat concerned about contracting COVID-19, compared to 72% two weeks ago. The percentage of "very concerned" respondents rose 8 percentage points, from 29% to 37%.

Did this lady practice safe, social distancing? She reminds me of many Joe Biden voters across the country raising havoc
