Yes, of course, ever upward in cases and deaths after the peak till it’s over. One of their graphs shows that in very plain site. Why the need to mention it in every response to peak? Durian said back to baseline in July. There was no attempt to spin the info.
Because it appeared that the two were talking about two different things? When "state leaders" say cases will continue to rise for several months, that is not about the peak of active cases, that is about the total. You know clarifying the actualy terms.
But focusing on China in this case is cherry picking in a way.
I "cherry-picked" China as they have the longest timeline with this - so it's not over in 3 months for them, there are still daily cases, and China still has restrictions on who can travel where and for what and still dealing with new infections.
A "return to baseline" is not a return to zero new cases yet for them, nor Italy, nor New York, nor anywhere else in the world. But of course it will happen here precisely in July?
I _think_ I understand you are spinning stats (a few, perhaps even several, examples over the last weeks, most of which I let be) to make it scarier for everyone so they take social distancing seriously
Prove it then. I can do stats all day and night (as it was my bread and butter for many years), so if you think I'm "Lying with Statistics", the give all the examples and show your work. Otherwise I say take your insinuations and get bent. (Apparently you really can't stand to have your beliefs questioned... have at it I guess)
I hope for the lower range. I assume you do as well.
Hopefully every one does and takes the steps needed to make them a real possibility.
(still waiting on the dozens of questions previously asked, but I guess we're just ignoring all that?)
