Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

[Scott34]

I would think you would have some legal challenges on your hands if you tried to open restaurants but not bars.

What about bars that serve food?

Illinois extended its stay at home order through May. Also, face masks will be required in any public indoor place, and outdoors if 6ft of social distancing can’t be done.
Elective surgeries will be allowed May 1st.
Golf courses and state parks will open back up May 1st.
Retail stores can also open back up, but must do curbside pickup.

All sounds reasonable to me. So iowa won't do any of this.

The whole points of the stimulus and the extremely generous unemployment amounts are to avoid renters not being able to pay rent. I’m sure if you ask any cpa they will tell you the margins are so small for landlords, most of them barely show a profit. So everybody gets a break but screw the landlord.

Am CPA...depends how you define everything. Profit on paper? Well, depreciation is a big factor in that.

Cash flow? Again, depreciation and loan payments.

Unrealized gains? Normally the biggest profit

Where can I find the historical trend of daily COVID hospitalizations in Iowa? Someone referenced the coming peak in Iowa. I know models are predicting mid May, but those are models. What do the daily hospitalization and death trends suggest in terms of peak?

The Des Moines Register has a graph that shows all cases and subsets that include this information. However, it doesn't clearly show the data in my opinion. You can touch the "buttons" on individual dates to get the data, but that doesn't let you compare.

Here's what I gathered from that source, using each of the past five Wednesdays' data, which would include the most recent report:

3/25 - 1 death, 31 hospitilized
4/ 1 - 11, 74
4/ 8 - 29. 122
4/15 - 60, 175
4/22 - 96, 282.

Ashton Kutcher put out a statement

I would assume transmission rates at a bar where some are likely intoxicated would be higher, yes.

Lots of restaurants serve booze.

Saw a clip tonight on NBC news interviewing a pub owner somewhere, and he was rattling off a bunch of different ideas, like having fewer tables available, spread out, and not allowing people to sit at the at the actual bar.

I also think about campgrounds: do you limit how many per site? WI typically had 6 people as the limit at most places to start.

I think you would limit sites rented out rather than people per site. If you had so much space between campgrounds, I think that would do more to limit spread than the other way arpudn

So Ashton Kutcher is a key adviser on Iowa's covid 19 response and we are reminding Americans not to inject themselves with bleach in response to comments made by the president. We are officially on the other side of the looking glass.

America had a decent run

Gonna need him to get that continuum transfunctioner

 

[erinmd32]

If Ashton Kutcher had a good suggestion and Reynolds followed it great (as weird as that is). The problem is how bad is the team around her right now if they haven't suggested things like this.

She needs to partner with UofI and ISU more like Waltz is in Minnesota with Mayo.

Also, people might start trying to bake it out of themselves since it was asked if we can just use UV lights through the skin.

The doctors at these briefings must be bewildered.
